Jeff - I was going to suggest bumping your opan party back a weekend to coincide with Brian and Dragoness's arrival, and Julie's nightmare..I mean...car, work on her car--and hell, if Andy is sneaking out--sheit!

Brian - Now were getting close to my comment "how about a few Pcars show up to pick you up" to becoming a reality. PM me with your latest to San Diego.

Don, Andy - Meet for the drive up sounds perfect.

sounds like a fun, informative and productive day...

Andy, a caravan would be great, that way if my car goes a boom boom, I'm not stranded.

I just drove to elcahon for jury duty today w/ no problems.

BTW, I have a surprise for all ( hint is in my sig )

Who hoo! I'll be in LA for the labour day weekend. Already cleared the Sunday as a 'Porsche' day. You guys dont have to drink. I'll take care of that!!!1 I just want a social occasion where I can meet you guys (and a photo op! LOL)
Plus: get to see the cars! They are sooooo rare here!
Sorted out with the Dragon that she goes on a tour to Tiuana on the sunday and I play cars! LOL
Hope you can come up Kevin. Really look forward to meeting you. I cant get to SD. The cost of the hotel is too much to sacrifice for the trip (plus I believe that they have 100+ cable channels including the Sci-Fi channel, Which we dont get and want to watch. big Stargate and Atlantis and anythingelse fans!)
Can someone pick me up at the hotel? If not will catch a cab. Just tell me where.
I go to Vegas at 0700 next morning.
Photo Op coming in less than a week!

I like to get everything started in the morning because we know what can happen in water pump jobs. Broken studs, missing parts, etc can cause big problems so its better to have extra time. I will be working on another car where a clutch, rear suspension, torsion bar indexing, front strut insert, rear shock, seat replacement, oil pan gasket, etc will be replaced so I have my hands full for a few days and not able to physically wrench on other cars that day. I can look everything over though and make sure everything is done right. Bring food for the BBQ and whatever beverages. I have the charcoal and the pit to cook the food along with a working refrigerator (house is not fully done - just got done painting the outside of the house). I say 9:30 AM would be a good time to start.

too bad I don't have the $$ for legolands transmission. We could get the swap started as well.
There's always the next time.

by way of Bevery Hills ??

BTW, where is LegoLands place ???

There is a guy in LA that wants to meet up with me to borrow a remote control for a touchscreen.

Kevin, Andy, which would be better 15 or the 5. I could meet you @ the 15 & 78. I will come from Ramona through escondito on the 78 ( lots of twisties ).

He's down by me; I can meet you guys somewhere or something if you want to guide you in. 9:30 on a Saturday though? Ugh. Better to start early and beat the heat though.
