Yep. rear is on and front is at chrome shop, so "woody" is ready for the sacrifice.

I'm really hoping for nice weather for our cookout this year. Nothing beats the mixed aroma of motor oil dripping on heat exchangers & dead animals burning on charcoal...

I replaced my motor mounts last weekend, and will do a new clutch this saturday and be ready to go. Would have done clutch last weekend too, but I'm still recovering from the quadruple bypass surgery from february, so I still get tired real easy. Hard turns make the chest muscles hurt, so I'll probably be in the rear of the pack this year. Chashing Richard Fischer with a 2litre is a lesson in futility anyway.

No kidding! I've only ever once been behind him on any sort of run (he must've gotten held up by an RV for my little 1.8 to have ended up behind him (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ).

It was incredible to watch his car pull away from me once the traffic cleared! My only regret is that I didn't take the chance to honk at him because he was slowing me up!

I actually had Richard gripe at me on the last trip up there because I made him downshift out of 5th gear..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

I'm nearly ready.

I gotta install my 12V wine cooler...

Then I'm ready. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Motel room UPDATE:

Talked to Kitty today and there are only two rooms left.

Room #28 & 29.

In two days, we will have to let those rooms go.

So... make your move.

Her phone number is at the top of this thread.

Now back to my wine cooler...

Ok. last night I got off my dead @ss and got out in the garage. I pulled the rear suspension off my car, and started working to change it out... DWD rears it's ugly head... I am replacing the whole rear suspension just because I have a bad wheel bearing.


I got the new springs on the shocks, and started working on the trailing arms so they can mount the 911 park brakes, and we had a really bad thunderstorm roll through the area. So we raised my car up, and double stacked the 914s. Then we put the BMW in the garage.

Now tonight I will get moving on the suspension again. Hopefully I can get the brakes on it and get them in the car.

I may show up a Talamena with no park brake, but I will be there.

Ok.. progress report.

I got the new rear trailing arms installed, and I got one of the new style park brake cables done. I found a way to use a stock 914 park brake cable with the 911 parking brake assembly. I will take pictures for a future article on how to do it.


Tomorrow after work I am going to get the other side done, and get the front calipers changed. Then I will bleed the brakes and align the car.

Then I can align the wifes car too.....


Busy busy....... gotta be ready for Talimena. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
