It would be a great time to have a Club Meeting. If all works out I will be there.

I would be interested. However, I will be on vacation from the 18th until the bug run. So, don't wait for me....

The past sessions were at my shop (Lawton, MI), but that doesn't mean we can't meet at someone else's place. Just need to know what type of work, so we can bring the needed tools.
If balancing wheels, turning drums or some other floor equipment is needed; we might want to hold it at my place again.
Let us know what you're thinking.

would torsion re-indexing be too simple for a tech session?

I'd be anxious to go to a tech session. Couldn't make it to previous ones, but wished I could.

Re-indexing the rear torsion arms shouldn't be a problem. Were you thinking of coming to Lawton? The sessions usually start at noon and get over whenever you wish to leave or around 8pm. I supply the soft drinks, water and somethings to eat (sloppy joes, chips, etc).

Count me in for any weekend. Don't have an immediate project myself but would be happy to spectate, help, take pictures or editorialize.

I'd be interested in checking the parking brake on the Pig of Plastic.
I'm going to check with Purring Pumas about what is involved.

Ray, I would really like to attend again but we are leaving for Hesston, KS. (50th class reunion) on the 21st and not returning until the 30th. If it will be after that date count me in. I may be ready to assemble the engine by then. ;D

October 9th comes to mind. Its a week after the Bug Run (fix what might have broken) & just before the Color Tour, to have your VW ready to go.
We'll start @noon, finish up around 8pm. Let us know what you need done. As in the past; there's no charge for any of the work, just bring what parts you might need (there's parts stores open on Sunday too). I'll have snacks, water, soft drinks and sloppy joes.
Hope you can make it.
Thanks, Ray

I'll be there again. May need to balance tires, but I'll let you know before then. Just may be able to offer extra hands to help anyone. ;D Bob

This is Great! I should be able to make this one. I will try to bring my drums for turning.
