If you want someone to show up earlier so you're not bored until 6 I may be able to.

Not sure if Mark is going to come carpool.

I'll take all I can get my hands on, trying to fill a shop with tools.

The 17th is this week.
Someone was talking about Rivnuts and I said I can
bring the setting tool and do the job in the parking lot.
The question is who was that and do I still need to bring
the setter?

John, I will load the sand blaster tank for you in the truck.

Lets see what else??? Still have the fuel tank if anyone is interested.
Extra 150 gallons of storage would be a nice thing to have for some.

Ryan 79Supercab has been asking about a Rivnut tool.

That sand blaster is going to get a lot of use, just drove my 68 A108 home and it has a lot of bubbled up paint near most of the body seems. Then again all the bodywork for paint was done by a 15 year old kid about 15 years ago, it's a beautiful 50 footer. haha

Well if he wants me to bring it and can make it himself I will.
Not into loaning tools out.

Maybe it time to bring the 15 yo back now that he is 30 and have a warrantee
job done.

BTW anyone else having problems with FTE today and last night? It's acting like a bad router.
Sometimes is fine and other times it chokes up and dies. All other web access for me is good.
It just keeps timing out on the connection for FTE and it a itch when your posting something.

I REALLY wish I could bring him back, he had a bad day a few years ago and killed himself. I found the van in a junkyard processing area about 8 months ago and another high school friend helped me save it. Have a lot of memories of cruising in the van and helping work on it all through high school and though I couldn't afford it and really didn't need another vehicle I couldn't let it get scrapped, it's now my permanent memorial project and my way of grieving.

Very sorry for the loss.

I have a photo of a younger friend I lost back in 09.
It's right to the side of the computer desk where I
can see it. Depression and poor treatment by the
VA killed him.

Sorry to hear that John and Sean. Losing a friend is tough.

I'm still planning to go, and bringing headers and a jack for John. I hope their coffee will be strong, I'll need it.

I'll be coming from Seattle on my Kawasaki. I may need to call you to guide me in, I am not sure where I'm going up there. If I can fit that sign for your shop in my bike bag, I'll bring it along but I don't want to bend it.

That would be great. I'm dropping off my two boys for a scouting event at 6:00 in south Federal Way, so I doubt I can get down there before 7:00. If you'll be there that long I'll head out there.

FRI worked for me and SAT would have worked too! I get home from work at about 1600 so it could have been SAT!

I'd LOVE to see your F6 if you still have it........we can compare notes!



There were 5 of us. I got there right at 6pm......


Cheers,


Rick
