There are already 8 registered participants in the September 23-24 group (see listing). Three (3) of them are coming from Toronto, Canada and a 4th Canadian wants to join his friends in this group.

Would anyone willing to volunteer to move to September 6-7 or 13-14? Please let me know or PM me. Thanks.

September 27-28 group.........
 
I have received several inquiries about joining this group and they were reluctant to sign up because of the lack of participants. If anyone signs up in the group, I will conduct the classes even if there is only one participant. I am doing this as a passion and not as a business endeavor. So anyone who wants to move or transfer to this group should not worry at all. I am willing to do a one on one session. Just you a me and if nobody shows up, I will take this opportunity to start a rebuild for one of motors waiting in line. Thanks.

Tony

AlKidd 07-20-2021 06:34 AM

Put me down for the Sept 27-28 group. Join in people.

I can't imagine someone hesitating due to lack of other participants. If anything that's a bonus! What could be better than one on one instruction?

Ethan,

Al Kidd misquoted my post. It refers to the September 27-28 group not the over-all Engine Rebuilding Classes. If you noticed, no nobody is in that group in spite of several PM’s and inquiries.

Right now, we have more than I could handle and happy with the number of participants. Looking forward for another great experience with the Pelicanparts members. Thanks.

this seems to be the closest:


tinyurl.com/vmasxskh Hyatt House Philadelphia/Plymouth Meeting

I like marriott properties, many discounts and corporate codes available to make this property less expensive most nites compared to the Hyatt above--a few miles away

https://www.marriott.com/hotels/maps/travel/phlwe-marriott-philadelphia-west/

David Borden 07-28-2021 03:51 PM

Changed my reservation to “Plymouthmeeting” area. Hyatt House as recommended by the host of our class. More expensive but walking distance.

Hotel accommodations.........
 
Here is a list of local hotel accommodations:

https://www.valleyforge.org/towns/norristown/hotels/

The closest accommodations would be in the “Plymouthmeeting” area. Hyatt House is so close you could walk from the hotel to the venue.

Thanks for the remind. Forgot all about getting a place to stay. Been pretty hectic here at home. Looking forward to it.

What should we bring?

Carl et al,

Bring your A-game because you will have a tough 2-day course. Just kidding. I like everyone to come with an open mind and enjoy the 2-day course. I will provide note books and pens to jot down your notes. Since everyone has a phone/camera, take as many pictures as you want to remember the tricks and gizmos you will see during the course.

You could then revise or make your own versions as you do your next engine rebuild. You would not be an expert after taking the 2-day course, but you would more confident and prepared to do your next engine teardown.

You will overcome your fear and anxiety about 911 engine rebuild and I guarantee it. If you have the Engine Rebuilding book by Wayne Dempsey, start reading it from cover to cover. That is an excellent reference book you could find.

See you guys in a few weeks. And travel safe specially our 5 friends from the north. They are crossing the border but they going back. Thanks.

Tony
