I have a couple of battery impacts, I'll bring extra batteries and a charger. I'll throw in a 1/2" breaker bar, small, portible floor jack and a few stands.

Did Max break his sway bar mounts?

I can also bring my battery tools. However my angle grinder is corded.

I was thinking of picking up a power bleeder...this might be a great moment to pick one up from ECS.

As for food...
How many people and what can I bring?

8 to 10, I believe, Jaime (coyoteh) should have the final count.

Hey guys, can't make it. Wanted to, even though no progress on the car (its turned into a weekend project type ). Wanted to meet people and pick the multiple brains.

Vallejo is kinda far to go in the jeep (we live past Gurneville)... and of course he's already made plans for Saturday.

(btw the submarine is about 80% road ready again)

Maybe next time, it will happen at some point. Have fun and hopefully no towing mis-adventures this time!

Hi Evie! Next time, no worries. You can still post your questions if it will help you get back on the road.

Jamie, you should be hitting your exhaust manifold nuts with PB Blaster these next couple of evenings. for Saturday. You, me and maybe James if he's game can swap the gasket.

John, pick up a10a external in line fuse holder and a few 10a fuses for your AE work.

Joe I have the rear speakers for you for replacement from my parts bin.

I'll bring a laptop to reset service indicators and to read any service codes. John, do you have a long extension cord handy? Also, did you get a grill?

You might want to bring a folding chair for yourself for kicking back on the lawn, unless we can convince John's wife to let us drag their couch and loveseat out on the lawn.

Anyone bringing drinks or is it BYOD?

Anybody coming that is good with electrical systems on the cars? I have a few questions.

Aside from John's request for a hood, and Joe for speakers, everybody ok otherwise with parts? Sorry John, if you need the hood, you gotta come up, it won't fit in my hatch.

See you all on Saturday.
