I preparation for getting my car painted I want to invite my friends over for the teardown. We can probably do this rain or shine, but the best day coming up is looking like November 25th. But since that's the weekend after Thanksgiving, I don't know if that's problematic for people. This coming Sunday is out. Dec 2 is my birthday (although that could be a fun birthday present ).

Nov 25 - Rain or Shine - 8am to 4pm (or whenever)
Burgers will be provided, anything else you want to bring/share is up to you.

Things to do (edited as I think of them):
1. Remove drivetrain.
2. Remove rear window.
3. Remove windshield.
4. Empty front trunk.
5. Pull wiring harness (partially).
6. Remove lights/rockers/valences/bumpers.
7. Weld up side markers.
8. Weld up hood badge holes.

where are you located mark?

Right under my name:

From: Napa, CA.

Although this would be at the shop in Sonoma, CA.

.....will they be wine

I am in!

Maybe...

Maybe. What would you think if I brought my 15 yo?

I'm in. Should we bring anything? chips, dips, side dishes, adult beverages?

I'd like to come. What time were you thinking?


KT

All day.

I'll probably get there around 7:30 or 8 like normal.

I'm in...

bummer, i just googled sonoma and unfortunately its an 8 hour drive . by the time i got there i would have to turn around and go home. otherwise i would be there.

Bummer, Sundays are always out for me and Sat Dec 1st is my b-day so I guess I can't help.....

God will still be there on Monday...

Or is it football?

Or is that the day your wife is in charge?

Hummmmm...Monday is a free day from 10am on

I will be in Vegas from Thursday to Sunday but Monday I think she will be done with my b-day stuff.......But I don't know for sure it is my big 50!!!!

25th should work for me,I'll just send the family home a bit early
But that's assuming I have a car to drive

Jeff

Yeah, yeah....

I'll be there

Now it's a party!

So Napa-Sonoma, does that mean, wine, BBQ oyster and clams....what kind of BBQ we talking here

Let me know if you need anything.

Jeff

It means burgers hammer-boy... Mark's shop is in the unfashionable industrial part of Sonoma. Which still means microbrew in the fridge but not all that fancy shizit you were spouting!

Bummer, I always liked hanging out at OC with Mark-n-da-guys getting dirty and making sparks. However, I live a little too far away now. Have fun!

Nov 25th looks good for me
DOES rainy weather cancel or??
This weekend is looking too wet for Sears Pt fun, at least for me and the 914

McMark - I found a no-hassle Subaru buyer, but am eager to spend my new $$$ at your shop soon.

WHAT's up w the LIMO project?!?!!?!? Let's do some work on that too!

Good I don't eat that fancy stuff, if you need burger meat I've got a freezer full.

Jeff

Sounds good to me!

Ok so we're having burgers, if you're planning on coming and haven't said so please let us know so there's a burger for you. Don't want any one going hungry.

Since I forgot the burger meat last trip to McMarks guess I'm making burgers, but I need to know how many.

Weather should be good, I'll be driving my white 74 with my new 2056...thanks to mark (he finished it for me), runs awesome, see you there.

Jeff

can I get a 1/4 pounder with cheese?

Count me for one, Jeff.

I have some local brews to bring up. Hope you like hops.

Jim

See next post

Front trunk is tank and air box mostly. Headlight buckets and motors. Wiring.

Doors will probably be just pulling the door panels and the quarter windows. Door handles.

I think i can make this one, it's been too long anyways ...

Wish I could be there. Have fun!

Should we bring anything???

I have burgers and a few PBR. Bring anything or nothing. Oh, and a turbo.

Pabst Blue Ribbon?

Sweet!


KT

Mark,
Malcolm and I will drop by for awhile...everyone can use a few extra thumbs!

Bob

Great! Extra thumbs. Not sure what we will do with them but...

After we tear his car apart, McMarks going to need one to get home!

Jeff

Any chance of doing the cam break in while everyone's there? Wish I could make it!!

Car got torn down....



KT

Good gathering! The shop looks better every time I visit. BBQ burgers in November - awesome. Now, to find time to work on my 914 projects!

Thanks for the wheels Trekkor
Thanks for the lug nuts Mark

From my own experience, smash them with hammers, jam them into heavy solid objects, take the skin off them with power tools, or get them caught in between two pieces of metal that are being pressed together...

--DD

You guys get it all done?

Nice to see you Andy!


KT

What? Nobody took pictures? Not even Andy? All day and nobody took pictures?

Cause I wasn't there with my Hi tech phone camera ...

I had my camera, just never busted it out.

Sad, i know.
