Who has a guess at headcount for the Saturday night Sharktoberfest dinner?

FIgure that 10-25 is the foreseable min-max for dinner. A HUGE showing might be 30, been a while since we saw that.

Great to start a RSVP now, but running late. The long haul travelers will likely go, the locals tend to disperse more.

I`m going to roll over to San Diego from AZ. on Friday. Then early morning up the coast to Anaheim on Saturday. Stay over Sat night at Embassy with everyone. I`m up for whatever gets decided. Don`t need to be back until Tuesday.

Question is, should these be pre lunch when everyone is socializing, or post lunch??
That would be great. I also have a 83 and that is my next project. I also could use some help getting my hood adjusted. Sits high on passenger side and makes me nuts. May need a new hinge.

Have you tried pushing down on that corner? My 81 does this and some light pressure gets the hinge to lower a bit more so the hood sits flush.

Some lithium grease would fix this most likely.

Dry hinges will do that. Dry for a prolonged time...they wear out/erode and then they will need replaced.

If you have never done it..lube can do wonders here.

It looks like this is the first year I will not be coming to sharktoberfest. There is at least 1 room available for someone. Hope everyone has a great time and perhaps ......next year.
