Default Combine with April Meet

Chris, I plan to attend the April meet. I like Kristen's suggestion also. We can eat at a nearby restaurant, most people can head home after, then the T. I. T. can go over to your house and get 'er dun. Or, I can show up the following weekend if that works better. See how many commitments you get.

If you want us to come help, we need to know what equipment you have on hand and what to bring. For instance, engine hoist, FE specific engine cradle, a good ball bearing engine tilter and chains. Or a carb plate to lift with (if you are not goosey about that). You'll need assorted 3/8 (?) bolts to attach the chains to the heads. I assume you have plenty of wrenches.

How much of this stuff you have determines whether we drive our Cobras to the meet or our trucks.

You will probably need your Cobra in a position in the garage where we can get the hoist in from the side by removing a wheel. Most of these hobby quality hoists do not have the reach to come over the nose. Have to see what people offer up.
