Skunkworks,

The weather in August might be nice in Vancouver, but here in the Philadelphia area it could be hot and humid. I don’t have air conditioner or heater in my garage. So I am planning to have the Workshop during cooler months like September and October or even early November. But we have a travel plan for November 2024 already scheduled. My hands are tied for these 2 months time frame. I wish I could do the Workshop year-round but I don’t have the facility to do it.

Tony - Paypal payment was in process when you updated this - you should have the funds in your account now. Look forward to this event.

Side note, for the 19-20 SEP class, I sent a PM to class mates to share contact info - if interested in coordinating etc.

The Day Before………
 
Chris,

Most of the participants usually arrive to town before their scheduled dates and I encouraged them to feel free to drop by in the afternoon or early evening. And then let’s grab something to eat and get acquainted.

We all have something in common and the camaraderie among us is very unique. I strongly suggest that you contact some of the participants in your particular group and plan something the night before your scheduled sessions. Thanks.

Tony

AlKidd 07-04-2024 11:27 AM

Go with an open mind and willingness to participate and you will not regret attending for 1 second. I attended a couple years ago. Participants arrived with a mix of knowledge but learned so much from each other and Tony

chucksmith 07-05-2024 06:29 AM

should be fun, looking forward to it. chuck

Shaun @ Tru6 07-05-2024 06:46 AM

Tony, September is booked for me with work and travel (should be going Porsche Museum), are you planning for any classes for the rest of the year?

Shaun,

My wife is not happy that I get involved in such a project with no help from anyone. I am doing this alone with some assistance from her. I am 81 years old and will be 82 this winter. While I still play tennis twice a week against players younger than my children and still beat them easily, I am in good physical condition.

To answer your question, I am not sure if I want to do this again. The commitment and effort to have an Engine Rebuilding Workshop is not easy to achieve doing it alone. The only thing that keeps me going is for my passion and desire to share my experience with people with similar interest.

It is wise to quit while you are ahead. And remember the memories of your experience. I am dealing life as they come alone. I am blessed and fortunate and thankful for what I have. Enjoy LIFE & FAMILY & FRIENDS.

Tony

89PS911 07-10-2024 04:45 AM

Hi Tony,

Thanks for the confirmation here and by email for Sept 16-17. I am really looking forward to this. And I appreciate very much that you are taking the time to do this for us.

All the best,
Jonathan

Ian,

It would be our honor to have you as our guest speaker. Fred Apgar was able to come to one of the workshop and shared his vast knowledge and experience with us. All the while, I thought he was in remission then got the sad news.

Come and join us. Thanks.

Thanks Tony, I am hoping to come east and have a gathering for air cooled 911's
One of the central events will be at Ceicle County Drag Strip in MD, I'm working on a drive as well.

When thats all done I'll go up to Quebec to visit my friend Emile (bender)

I'm trying to make this happen

I received the first one and refunded it. Then you sent another one and refunded it again. Why? Everyone is sending their participation fees as F&F or a check as requested. Do you need help sending your payment as F&F? Or you don’t trust me?

I'm definitely looking forward to your class and meeting new friends that share a common interest/passion. You may have already mentioned this (sorry if you did), but what do we need to bring to the class other than a good attitude?
