|
|
NEW DATES!!! At the request of our host and hostess we have backed up Volkstock by one week. Hopefully this will better accommodate those who had schedule conflicts.
The 7th Annual VOLKSTOCK weekend is fast approaching. Make your plans now to be there.
We start Friday evening August 23 and continue till Sunday around lunch time. You know the drill.
Soooo, who has a project they want to work on? Don't be shy; it won't happen if you don't speak up. We need to know as early as possible so we can plan the order we will work on the projects and placement in the shop.
Here are some photos for inspiration:

More photos from other Volkstocks are in the gallery. _________________ 73 Typ481

49 views so far and nobody has a project to work on? Don't be shy; this is where you get all the help you can handle. Big or little needs can be dealt with.
Once you get over your signing up anxiety, be sure to order the parts you will need from Clyde so he can have them in stock. _________________ 73 Typ481

If we can get James there to lead us through the back corners it would be a good time to do it.
How about it James? Can you make it back to this side of town? _________________ 73 Typ481

Unfortunately I can't make it due to a family reunion. As far as projects are concerned, are their any contributions that can be made to little Jon's or Wilson's car? |

Little Jon's car needs to have front disk brakes put on. I was waiting to see if others had projects before we added him to the list. I don't want to take time from others who need help. _________________ 73 Typ481

Wilson's car needs everything. I don't know how much we'll get done before then, but it'll need stuff done for sure. I'll plan on bringing it. hope to have the floorpans welded in by then. maybe. so either we'll be doing that, or painting the pan, and stuff that goes on it. _________________ '69 Bug, 1776, dual kadrons, Web 111 cam

If you have never made it to any of the Volkstocks in the past, you should try to come to this one. You don't have to stay long if you don't want to. We work on VWs, swim, eat, and tell lies. (maybe drink a beer or two) Many of us stay the whole weekend, but many more just drop by.
We do all this only 20 - 30 minutes down 316 from Athens.

Mike said he'd be happy to buff a 2ft x 2ft section on spicy's car. _________________ 1969 Beetle

I know the new dates are the same as Tannehill Bug Blast, but it can't be helped.
You did notice the new dates, right? _________________ 73 Typ481
