Introduction to engine rebuilding class......

[Fab64]

Hi Tony,

Just wondering if you have any plans yet to offer any workshops in 2025? I and a friend may be interested. Thanks very much.

Thank you for the feedback and encouragement about the recent Engine Rebuilding Workshop in September 2024. I have received several emails inquiring about the next Workshop. It takes a lot of effort and work to organize such undertaking as I get older. The logistics of setting up the venue and transporting the motors and tools needed for the work requires some outside help. I can not do it by myself anymore because of my bad back. Lifting anything more than 30 lbs. gives severe pain in my lower back and had to be careful not to aggravate my herniated discs. As far as my health, I am in better condition than most 80+ years olds.

If there will be enough interest, I like to do another one next year (2025).

Hi Tony,

As I mentioned earlier, I'm very interested in participating in the next class if it's offered. Please PM me about my availability to help organize and conduct the class.

I’m another that would be happy to attend and to help set up and take down anything required to make it happen.

[rcracin]

I would love to be part of the 2025 class.

[A930Rocket]

Count me in as well.

What are the logistics for getting the tools/engine/etc. moved and set up? Would coming in a day early help?

[SoCalSK8r]

Count me in, thanks Tony!

I would absolutely love to attend the next workshop. I'm still young and I try to keep my life pretty simple, so I can make time before to lift/move whatever around with the other nice people on this thread.

Hi Tony,

I'm am interested in attending a 2025 class too. If scheduling works out, I'm happy to help with setup / take down. I'm driving distance to Philly and might be able to bring a 2.2t for the teardown portion of the class if it would help.

Hey Tony,

I would be interested in a class as well. I would have to travel, but if the date works out that's not a problem for me. I'm also in the tear down phase with an 82 3.0 and could bring it disassembled and cleaned for the class.

I'd come in from the west coast, and am happy to fly out early to help set up. Would love to take the class!

[evan9eleven]

As mentioned in a PM, I’m absolutely ready to fly in for the class in 2025, count me in!

Just found this thread. Another +1 to high interest in participating in a pass if there's one this year.

[mikesarge]

Hey Tony - If the workshop takes place after June 2025, you can count me in. I'd also be willing to come in early to help with set up

[Soko121]

I would also like to attend as will be building up an Engine for my 82SC

It looks like there is enough interest for another Engine Rebuilding Workshop for 2025. I have to check if the room I was using for the workshop would be still available. It looks like a Fall Session (September) might be the next workshop.

These are the tentative schedules:

Group #1: Sept. 15/16
Group #2: Sept. 18/19
Group #3: Sept. 22/23
Group #4: Sept. 25/25

Maximum of 8 participants per group as we had before. PM me or sign up here for the dates you plan to attend. I will need the following information for the registrants:
Full Name, email address, dates attending. PM or email me your personal information and will keep them confidential.

Today is my 82nd. birthday and could do another WORKSHOP this year. Thanks for your interest.

So let’s begin the head count.
