HEAD COUNT
 
Time for a head count for planning purposes ie. food and stuff.
Who is in... I have new neighbors to impress lol....

JohnB 11-24-2003 02:03 PM

I'm in and if I can bring my 11 yr old that'll be two of us. She's not much good with a wrench but she's a real good complainer.

She'll make someone a perfect wife some day....

JB,

I have a 10 and 8 year old daughter to keep her company ... Plenty of little girl stuff to keep her occupied!

Snow, that's a good point, it was sleeting pretty good here a few hours ago...We also need a car to work on...Valve adjust. Dwell and timing and of course the general " whats this noise sound like to you?

So put your list together and we will use the collective knowledge to solve or at least diagnose your problem...

jamcleod 11-25-2003 04:42 AM

didn't JohnB, JmuRiz and dezel12345 want to see valve adjusts? maybe dezel12345 will have sold his 914/4 and bought that 916;)
i can't help with a valve adjust on a -6

JohnB 11-25-2003 06:18 AM

Yeah, I like the valve adjust idea if it's feasible but I'm also interested in checking out my cooling flaps if the wx permits driving the car up. I also want to find the source of a very slow oil leak around the filler neck. But those are just my ideas, I'm open to suggestion.

The 11 yr old will be a last minute decision but thanks very much for the offer.

peter carroll 11-25-2003 05:25 PM

Count me in. I hope to bring my'75. Runs badly when cold. Not too bad when warm. What can I bring? Pete in Hereford, Md.

JmuRiz 11-25-2003 06:31 PM

Oh yeah, I'll be there. Any word on what time, or if the people from NoVA are meeting up to drive there. It's a hike, but it should be fun. Hopefully I'll get crackin on some of my projects this long-weekend SmileWavy

i won't be able to caravan since i have that appt. my mapquest directions take me up I95, not my favorite route but... anyone know of a route via I270-Rockville-back roads-Sykesville or is I95-Rt32 the best?

JohnB 11-26-2003 04:51 AM

Nate, I can try to caravan with you since I have to pass Sterling on my way. What time/where? Starbuck's on Rt 7 at Dranesville Rd? Time?

Count me in! Just let me know what I can bring, otherwise I will default to a 12 pack and some BBQ Chicken :D

NOT! for sale ... Eric is starting a collection!

let's see ... role call:

Jim
John
Eric
Nathan
Peter
Ralph
? Dave
Geoff
Kerry
? Dezel 1234567891011121314151617...:)?

Looks like a strong possibility of ten? very cool. I am palnning on providing the Burgers , Dogs & chips. Consider it a holiday greeting card you can eat. Anything else is up to you guys. BYOBeverage????

We have two bays to work with and with any luck we may have 70 degree weather and can use the driveway as well.

Like I siad before start putting those triage lists together and we can hit those after a valve adjust or two.

JmuRiz 12-01-2003 06:47 AM

John B and/or Eric/anyone else,

What time do you all want to meet at Starbuck's on Rt 7 at Dranesville Rd? I don't know when we are meeting up at Scott's. I think it takes 1.5 hours from that spot. I'm open for suggestions, but that location would be GREAT for me.

Nathan

jamcleod 12-01-2003 06:51 AM

shooting for a start time of 10am. i have my eye on the weather and we may need to have a rain date if weather will keep people from attending.

JohnB 12-01-2003 08:09 AM

Nate,

If Jim says we're starting at 10:00 let's make it an 8:30 launch from the Starbuck's. I'm in Ashburn so going past there is not a problem for me.

My company Christmas party is Sat night in Annapolis so I have to come back to NoVa, retrieve the wife and head back east in the afternoon so I'm not sure how long we'll stay. Further complication: wife has the flu and I don't have any symptoms. Yet...

PM me and we'll swap phone numbers if you like.

dc914guy 12-01-2003 09:41 AM

I am in for the caravan, but I will be heading to Baltimore to see a friend afterwards so I will be driving my wonderful rental truck.

Scott... I can't bring myself to sell it.

norustscott 12-01-2003 09:41 AM

We can always reschedule if required...weather, turnout, holiday party stuff....

Has any one heard from Dezel recently. We have still not picked a car to adjust valves....we can do more than one too!
