The forecast for Friday looks pretty tasty. 59 and sunny. What time are you looking to start?

9 am? 10 am? I'll be out there all day so feel free to come and go as you please.
I will be there by 10. Jamie, Sam and the former Bluesmobile (944 Lemons car ) will be by for a once over. Looking forward to wrestling on your e36.
I will be shooting a text Saturday with regards to what time I'll be headed east. I suspect that I will be dragging Saturday morning as after this week my body needs a reset, so I'll be going with no alarm in the morning, And even though I suspect I'll be waking up at a decent hour because I'll probably be asleep before 9:00 Friday evening, I imagine that I'll be dragging on actually getting moving Saturday once awake.
I'm still recovering from covid so I won't make it this weekend.
Sounds good on all counts. Sorry to hear that yupididit. Hope you're feeling better. And no rush at all Captdownshift. I will be out there all day. If you're not feeling it day of, you do you.
Saturday was successful and fun. We had 6 sets of hands, got some stuff done on the e36, consumed a lot of coffee and doughnuts, and did a once-over on one guest's recent race car purchase. Strangely enough it's a 944 I raced about 8 years ago and sold to buy a ring. Fun to see it again.
Good times Wrenchin'!
That looks to have been a spectacularly productive day!
Who has a lift? Want to do suspension work on my Expedition. Most my good tools are still in Texas.
In reply to yupididit :
I have a lift, but my race car is stuck on there until mid-March. Regardless, unfortunately I can't get an Expedition on there. Maybe somebody on the other side of the pond (your side of the bay) has an option for you.

It was a nice day...the weather was crazy (good). I completely forgot that old 944 funded that portion of Ed's marriage.
In reply to yupididit :
I'm closer to you, but it's a maxjax I wouldn't trust an expedition on (and also occupied till mid-march with the rx car). I'll need to get some sorting miles on said rx car once it's running, and a trip across the bay sounds pretty perfect. I bet I can talk irish44j into coming, too.

Between me and Punchywrench/ Ed Higginbotham, I am pretty sure we will have a shop/build day in mid-late March just before the NASA VIR event. My travel schedule is such that I will likely be flailing to the finish line. Stay tuned...it would be great to have some forum members over here! March is good grilling weather too...just sayin'.
Spent a little time at Ed's yesterday between painting my house and learning a couple of songs.
I fled the scene after helping with the cam lock and positioning the head. 
Off topic but any suggestions on shooting ranges? I have a JP Rifles GMR15 that I need to play with. Also need some 9mm ammo. Lots of it lol.
It's early in the forecast, but temperature wise next weekend looks pretty solid.
Ill pop in. Located in the 20876 zip code and willing to lend a hand.
Currently race in Champ Car with an Elantra and have a Fiesta ST for my autocross, trackcross and track days. Have attended events with CDC, GFE, Trackdaze, Chin and SCCA.
Have a good amount of tools/air compressor and have background in Ford/Lincoln/Mercury and Hyundai/Kia.

i've got a buddy in Fort Washington MD who shoots a lot, or at least he used to. He's also got a couple of M3's and a couple other cool cars. PM me your contact info and I'll forward to him.
Just adding myself... Also in the NoVAarea, planning to go to the challenge, even if my car may be over-budget.
This will be the last year the I keep the escort under budget for it (in order to do thing to preserve the life of the transmission, mainly)
Welcome CoolUserName! Cool user name.
I'm gonna need y'all help!
Sometime this summer or sooner I will be picking up a manual w108. Its janky. And I want to turn it into a track car lmao.
Said car:
Muse:
A cheap janky version of this lol
I support that vision! Any other details? How's the mill? I don't know Mercedes very well, so no idea what's under the hood or suspension is like, but I do speak 80's bmw pretty fluently.
