Well I was chatting w/ Toast and she said that she has a TO DO list for her car... how many others have the same... If there is quite a few then lets schedule a wrench day at my house. Hoping for a 5+ outcome.
PS... I may need some help myself w/ further disassemby w/ my 914 to prep for paint...
BTW I can fit 3 in the garage and 1 blocking the driveway

It looks like you bought your new beater off Ebay. Those seem to be pretty popular cars with the gangsta's, are you a gangsta?

Could be there too. I need to play with the rear brakes and add a second fuse block.

I've got plenty of small stuff to address, tranny mounts, fuse block, brake venting, etc. I could even make it to Glendale, throw out some dates...

No gangster here; just an old school car guy who misses his 1971 Roadrunner. Picture off Ebay but car bot from local dealer-same black R/T package. Waited 2 months on order. 350hp/390 and seats 5. Love seeing the look on the tail-dragger's faces after some dusting. Is it that these 911 hacks just don't know how to drive?
...actually had one owner tell me his car was a Porshahh Nine Nine Six; I was very impressed.
Car is scary fast. One cool thing-the window sticker from the factory says Car Built and Prepared for Gary _____.

You know what people, Looks like the outcome looks good Start Throwing out Dates...
I know people work so I won't throw out any days.... (I get 6 weeks of vacation from surgery)
People From Glendale You Know How Parking Is ... Everyone Else Better Get Here Early!!!!! LOL
By The Way... In My Tool List (Actually All My Tools Are At Work)
3.5 HP 15 Gal Compressor
3/8 Dr Air Rachet
1/2 Dr Impact
3/8 Chuck Drill
Metric 9-25 (missing 23) 1/2 Dr Sockets
Timing Light
Compression Tester
I have An SUV Jack That'll Get a car Pretty High (about 1.5-2 ft) But No Jack Stands (Someone put that on their list please) If Someone can bring a 1 1/4in (I think That's the size) Drill bit I can make my jack have a 4.5in cup instead of a dinky 1.5in.
I think that people should also post what they want done their cars so other people joining (if you don't have tools) may be able to help. (Reminds me SOMEONE BRING A SOLDERING IRON AND SOLDER FOR TOAST, SHE HAS NO HORN!!! Sorry I had to put you on the spot LMAO)
I think that's pretty much the gist of it...

Just found this thread about a wrench day in my Area. If its still going to happen I am in. Lots of know how.
If you need a location I can host, got lift and parking for 8 car +. We could set a record for the most 914 serviced in one day. I saw the 27th posted but at this late date I say lets try Sunday the 28th at 7:30 till, The sooner you get there the faster your car can get some work done on it. start posting ASAP so we can get this thing going. And lets say 4pm that afternoon take the cars up the canyon. Which is only 10 min from my home in Tujunga (north Glendale). Tim (kenneth) this is only if you have changed your mind on what was started in the first post.

May 27 2006, 08:56 AM
IIRC, it got posted over at the bird board while the site was down and someone pinned down the 17th of June.
Anybody wanna help me swap a master cylinder?
Heeltoe914
May 27 2006, 09:20 AM
OK great that should work for me as well so forget all that I mentioned. Unless you just wont to hang out and work on your car at my place, The lift really makes things go faster.

The 27th has come and gone.
The Big Bear run is on the 17th. If you do the Wrench Day before then y'all can get your cars ready for Big Bear.

Saturday, June 10th.
I'm working on the car tomorrow, but that's probably short notice for folks. I should be able to come down on the 10th and lend a hand.
timmmcgraw, is your car running?
If Heeltoe is available that day, it would be great to work on his lift.
