One more week! I spent my weekend taking out the transmission on mine.......
And exactly how am I supposed to get the top bolt on the transmission?

I've had a couple of e-mail inquiries on whether this happens if it rains. Ruby's surgery is scheduled no matter what! Gotta move forward on the project.

Attendees are not obligated to drive Porsches if it is raining, mine obviously isn't leaving the garage.

I'm dragging my lazy boy out to see this. I told him what you were doing and his reply was "aw cool". So he's going.

About time to crack a cold one. How bout a group pic; would love to see the gallery of spectators and driveway. If audio is avail, maybe a few golf-claps could be heard.

All done, maybe 2 hours to the opposite of lift-off. Cleaning up the garage a bit, pics later. Probably 12 or 15 visitors. More donuts, coffee and beer than you could shake a stick at!

Thanks to all who came by and helped!

golf-clap Nobody stuck around to help pick-up. I knew you should've charged a cover.
