Default XP: Pulling the head on Sat.

If anyone in Indy is available and wouldn't mind helping a HG newbie, I plan to start pulling the head Sat afternoon. I wish I could make this a proper GTG and offer up beer, but money is tight after co-pays and deductibles (wife's arm) and scraping the money together for the head.

I promise to hold a BBQ GTG later this summer and buy beer for anyone that helps. So if anyone is bored

Thanks,
Daniel

I would come over but I have family in town on Saturday. Will you still be working on it Sunday? If so, I might be able to stop by in the afternoon.

Also, if you end up needing a tool, I might have it so just give me a call. PM me if you want my cell number.

Good luck and take pics as they sometimes come in handy.

Hey Daniel. I may be able to spare an hour or two on Saturday. I've never pulled a head, but I've wrenched on these cars a bit and can at least lend a hand. Let me know what time you plan on starting in.

A reminder is a good idea. Is there anything that I could bring along? (within reason )

Vitesse stage II.

Oh within reason. Sorry.

I don't think I need anything. I'll look through the required tools to see if I have everything.....
