Hey guys, so I pitched this to a bunch of guys on the facebooks and have gotten positive feedback, so here goes for realzies.
I thought that it'd be a good idea to combine two of my favorite things:
1) Hanging out with you jerk-holes.
2) Wrenching about with you jerk-holes.
So I was thinking of yet another meet, this one on Sunday morning(ish). The idea would be that we grab some brunch somewhere in the north-Seattle area, then come back and help each other out for 1.5-2hours (or longer) on each other's rides. Little issues that often take a LOT less time with some more eyes, stuff that we know someone else is an expert in, all that fun stuff.
Some examples:
-Keyless entry kit thing (I know that Stephen is an expert on it and want to mooch his experience)
-Replacing a dash (Brad says that it can be done really quickly with a few guys or take eternity if by yourself)
-Audio wiring (the more hands the merrier)
-Other things
In terms of overall timeframe I'm thinking like meet up at 10:15, eat until 11:15, futz around on cars until 1pm. Then we still have the rest of the day to do whatever.
In terms of brunch location, my normal place just shifted their opening to nooner but I know that there are a ton of other places in beautiful Greenwood, so we're not lacking options. For wrenching I'm happy to offer up my garage. I can fit one car in it and have a decent enough set of tools and tons of parking.
So if people want to try this out and see if it sticks, I'm game. I want to learn more about these fantastical machines and everyone always has ten things going on that it'd be cool to dig into.
Anybody want to jump on a project this coming Sunday to start this off?
