Tim,

Post the time you’d like us at your place and we’ll all be there to help.

I'm close to your place, Barrington and Irving Park, and can arrive in less than ten minutes...less than five if driving my cobra.

Rich,

I am planning to stop by Tim's house Saturday. Speaking of tools .... can you bring the 1/2" wrench that has been an orphan from the rest of my set? There is a gap between the 7/16" and 5/8" wrenches and it just dosen't look right when I open the tool drawer Thanks!



Blas,

I may make it to breakfast. All depends on how much "Tapping of the beer" tonight? I will call you guys if I will make it to breakfast. Otherwise I will just see you guys at Tim's.

Mark

Did I read naked in here somewhere?

I am hoping to have an output shaft on my porch when I get home tonight. Yippee! Is it a breakfast before Tim's house or a lunch?

I actually keep the wrench in my car. The excuse of 'I forgot' will no longer work. Y'all will be reunited Saturday.


Blas,
Is that the place just north of the expressway?

Rich,

We're having a family reunion? Sounds great!

The Apple Villa is just north of 90 on the east side of the street, up about a half mile in a strip center. We met there on July 8th and you were there. Too many beers since then?

Mark

Wow: You guys really do take to an opportunity to get together. Based on the thread I see at least 6 WCCC folks coming over - gr-r-reat!

I will try and get over for breakfast, I've got to move a bunch of stuff so we can get the body off the mezzanine. If you have a favorite pair of gloves you like to protect your hands - please bring, I do have several extra pairs.

Rich - I think I'm all set with your list - I got all the options I think I want for now on the car (with the exception of 3-link - which I'll probably do later). I had a wire diet done by Rob Weatherby and all the electrical and instrument signal stuff work - with the exception of the wipers which I can't run until I get the fittings/arms/blades on (post body install) - I need advice on cutting the lenght of the wiper cable.

I've got 7 miles on the go-kart, it all runs good. The mechanicals are from a donor (All Mustang). The brakes are just OK but I plan on replacing the pads with Porterfields once they wear. The engine is from a '90 GT, I took it apart just to clean - it runs OK for a stocker. I want to keep it simple until I really know what I want to do long-term. It's not running now because I pulled the dash and sidepipes off. See you tomorrow - thanks again. Tim

An addendum to my last message.

If you are going to breakfast 8-9ish, just come on over afterwards. I am only 5 minutes away and in case I don't make breakfast, the garage door will be up by 9 for sure. I am sure Blas can lead the procession in which I would plan to be here by 10.

Please be careful if you try and park in the drive way, the curb is high (soon to be replaced by the village). Blas's car got in without a problem, but my FFR can't clear it (ride height 4.5") - be forewarned.

Tim,

I finished my FFR last Oct so a lot of the problems are still fresh in my mind (what's left of it at least). If your interested I could stop by sometime if you haven't placed dropped the body on yet.

BTW: If you come out to Crystal Lake this thursday night (6:00-8:30) there will be a number of WCCC members there would can give you thier $0.02 worth.

Tim,

Just saw your other post so I guess I'm to late. Let me know if you need any other help getting your snake on the road.
