It'll be here before we know it.
Please chime in on what you want to do, so we can have an idea of where to put your vehicle in the garage, and how to schedule everything.
So far we have a pan replacement scheduled for Steve's 67.
I'd appreciate it if there's a panel beater who can straighten out my driver's rear fender (I hit it with a car trailer ).
Anyone who hasn't done their own valve adjustment yet, this is the perfect setting (cars will be cold Sat. morning).
Bring your swimming duds and a towel for the pool.
We'll work out details of meals in the near future. _________________ '69 Bug, 1776, dual kadrons, Web 111 cam

Gary wants to pull the engine out of PEARL and perhaps trans (?) on Friday night and then drop new ones in on Saturday morning.
I'll let Gary fill in any more of the specifics!!

I plan to assist Gary as much as he will allow me too and tinker with the never ending "lighting" issues I have with SLEDGE. I will not need any "IN-SHOP" time for SLEDGE!!
(He is not used to being SPOILED anyway!!

Volkstock is a tech weekend hosted by Ken and Inge who live in Bethlehem, where we can do much more than the usual Saturday tech days. Everyone is invited. It's the weekend where most pay their $12 yearly dues, and everyone learns something new. We camp Fri and Sat night in their back yard. Food for Fri and Sat night is provided by Ken and the club, respectively. Maybe we can all pitch in and send someone to Publix for subs for Sat lunch. We'll cruise to the Golden Corral in Winder for breakfast Sun. Morning. _________________ '69 Bug, 1776, dual kadrons, Web 111 cam

What ever we run into with the Exaust Manifold.(Little pices that you replace when you this)
Also Brakes and the Fluid (also what ever gets replaced when doing brakes).
If you can think of things Clyde let me know how much money to set aside for this stuff. $$$
Thanks in advance.

I'm in for Saturday morning valve adjustment and also checking timing. I've got some air-horns I'd like to install on the Thing, but may need a little guidance on wiring. _________________ 73 Typ481
