I'll be there

I'll be there next time with my Bug. A project more then mine would be great.

Me also! Hopefully with Ruffuss in tow.

Finally ordered the adapter for the wheel balancer, so high speed balancing will be available for the 5x205 (up to 1967). The 4 lug wheels can also be done.

The brake lathe is looking for drums to turn, so if you have brake work; sign up and let us know what you have.

Ever wonder what it would be like to get under your car, check things out, ask questions, and yes, take a picture or two.

Let us know if you have any questions. Hope you can make it out.

Thanks, Ray

Went to remind Debbie about this Tech Session and she said "its Father's Day", so....... looks like we'll need to reschedule - I'm open to your suggestion for a different date.

I'm also shopping around for a new shop scheduling book that has holidays and special occasions on it.

When ever is convenient for you

I am glad of the date change because I would not be able to make it.

Here is the list of shows that I normally keep up to date.

I normally make sure the calendar is also up to date before the month changes. Sorry I have not updated all the June events yet. I will soon.

Okay... here's some dates to think about. Some are close to events, but not the date of the event. Let us know which one works best for you and what kind of work you need.

June 25th - day before GoodVolks show, South Haven
July 9th, day before Bug Run
August 7th

So far the dated work for me unless something comes up.

I do have some projects that need to get done to the bus but my stuff can wait if needed.

My only issue it that having the Tech Session before an event means that hopefully nothing brakes, or your VW will not make it to the show the next day.

[teamafx]

I think all 3 days listed should work for me(Unless Tina says it wont ;D ). I will be there with what ever day you pick.

[67type1]

Let's go with Sunday, August 7th. Start around noon, finish up about 8pm.

Please post if you're interested. You don't necessarily need to have something done on your vehicle to come out. Its always cool to meet other club members, talk about Vdubs and see what's happening.

If by chance you'd like to do some work; let us know what you're thinking.

Thanks, Ray

I am interested in attending, but being a NOOB I don't know where the tech session will be located.

Hi Bob,

Tech Session is still on for Sunday August 7th, start around noon, finish up about 8pm.

Its held in my shop: 75297 26th St, Lawton, MI, 49065

If you have a GPS; punch in the address. If not; please PM me and we'll work out the details.

It would be good to know what type of work you're interested in. There's no charge for any of the work. You just need to supply the parts.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
If anyone else is still interested; please let us know what you have in mind.

Thanks All,
Ray

Forgot to mention that I got an adapter to mount the 5x205 older (up to 1967) wheels on the high speed balancer.
