Wrenching Night or Day
« on: January 10, 2007, 08:47:55 AM »

After Nate's last post about needing help and all the people who did, I thought that was great and it would be a blast for us to get together anytime someone gets new parts and help them install them.

I will offer our garage to do this, Kelly and I can pull our cars out for a day or night and we can GTG, w some food, music, dirt, oil, grease, well you know the routine.

Let me know what everyone thinks about this.  :mrgreen:

this sounds like a good idea, since we have a group buy coming up and boost cooler will need to be installed. I know I will need help, as I'm not too vehicle savvy.

I dont have a huge garage either but Ive got air.  :mrgreen:
My driveway is big enough to have a few over and do stuff if anyone ever needs too.
Im down for a group wrenchathon.  Might need some help in a month or two w/ my car too but depends on what my tax return looks like.

Live in a Condo in Aurora, have a 1-car garage that presently holds my "Exploded View Rabbit GTI"... my neighbors hate me, not to mention my other cars are taking up 4 parking spots :giggle:

My "driveway" is also a parking lot, not sure how property management and security would feel about having a tailgate party

Hopefully we'll have a house soon to be able to offer up some space - looking at 3 car garages, so we should be able to host some events.

And...if you're extra lucky, da Jetta or da Rabbit can sit outside a night if it takes more than a day.  :mrgreen:
