SJVWC AIR RAID!!!
« on: December 17, 2017, 10:02:38 am »
Our next air raid has been scheduled!  12-29/30/31

Believe it or not! The victim (oops!) benefactor of the raid will finally be our own Shawn MacDonald! After years of sacrificing his garage, we will be attacking his beloved synchro. He'll fill us in with all the details but if you've never come to one of these or if Shawn has helped you in any way with yours, it's a good time to come over and help with wrenching, cleaning parts or just to keep Jack from eating all the donuts.

Wait- there will be donuts, won't there?

And also- since its water cooled, does this qualify as an air raid? Or a water assault?

Final push to get Eeyore put back together after 2 seasons on stands. There?s a million ?little? jobs to be buttoned up and we?re shoehorning a 1.9 Turbo Diesel into the engine bay. We have to get this thing back on it?s own wheels so we can do some more OverHaulin?s! I?ll provide coffee & donuts and lunch (and dinner & a late night snack 🤣)

I?ll actually be in the garage Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so if you can?t make it Saturday but want to come play, you?re welcome to come on the other days.

There?s welding, body work including rust repair, and mechanical work so whatever your interest, it?ll be going on.

I?ll have coffee & snacks
and we?ll provide lunch too on Saturday.

As for the AirRaid question... there?s NO coolant in this vehicle  whistll=-

Steve has also volunteered to come over on Sunday. It all depends on whether or not we get everything done? Or more to the point whether I have the necessary parts to continue

How are you feeling? You gonna make it through your own Air Raid?
Last forecast I saw is calling for sub freezing temps all weekend and maybe a few inches of snow!
I hope I can find my shoe warmers...  cold-   idea\

 3Gear came over last night and helped me assemble a portable shed tent from Harbor freight. We moved a lot of the machinery out of the garage into the tent. Today while I was getting things organized, Howard came over and completed the fuel tank installation and got the old power steering lines disconnected. So we got a big jump on those two jobs. It won?t be a long day tomorrow and as for temps, I?ll have the add a room up with heat, just in case
