My Dad's Engine - Help Day?
« on: April 28, 2006, 11:03:11 AM »

It looks like the engine should be here within the next week to week and a half (not ordered, but narrowed down).

To all who are willing to assist with this project... when would be good for you?  My mom will provide food/beverage while you are there and my parents will be extremely grateful.  Please let me know when it looks like you might have time over the near future and we can start organizing this.

Naps... any word from Champagne?

The engine is being shipped on Monday.... will be here before next weekend...

Please let me know if you think you can come help sometime (and when that sometime is), I'll send you directions and get a headcount for food (mom's providing)...

OK they are going to need allot of space, tools, and the floor is going to get dirty.  I have no problem lending my tools over to help also if needed but I have to get them all back (obviously).

There is the two car garage w/ only the audi in it and the third car garage that is car-less since the Jetta is not there right now.  We got LOTS of cardboard to put down so the floor doesn't get destroyed.  I don't have a way to separate peoples tools... best I can say is keep track of em while you are there or mark them somehow.

I know it's a ways out... but maybe next Saturday we could get it started?  Carlos will have to work in the am, but is off at 11:00ish.  Pretty sure Brandon will be there.  So as things pan out, if you think you could help next Saturday (not tomorrow) then let me know and I'll make sure you have the information and that we have food for you.

I can't really "help" I'll be more of a facilitator... I'm not the most experienced mechanic in the world.

But you are small enough to crawl into any engine bay to fix stuff.  That's pretty cool.
