Looks firm on the 25th...
My son just informed me that he needs to be back at U-Dub on the 24th. So my poor truck will be loaded with his "necessities" of life for another round trip to Seattle and back on Saturday.
As some of you know, I am quite reasonable and generous with my parts, so by all means, put a list together of anything you may want or need and e-mail to me before the meet. If I have the part(s) and I don't need it for my own projects, I'm sure we can work a deal. I try to check the parts out before I clean bag and store, but sometimes a bad one slips passed (sorry Brent).
I can't paint an entire car at the meet, but if you have a small panel or repair that needs leveling and matching paint applied, My equipment and "booth" (corner of upper garage) is still configured for painting as I still have door jams and touch up painting to do on my cars. I have some OMNI-AU paints in some Fiat colors as well as Original KlearKote top finisher. If you want to do some paint shooting, plan to come over early, say 9 or 10am, so as most of the painting will be done before the meet begins. I have masking tape, paper, primer, thinners, bug-tar remover, sandpaper, sanding blocks, Bondo, por15, rust converter, glazing & spot putty.
Well guess it is time I add to calendar (if I can figure out how to do that).
When:
Sunday, September 25th
workshop starts at 9am, and social starts at noon.
Meet ends when the last participant leaves, likely some time around dusk (or we close up shop and grab a dinner and suds at a local Mcmenamins)....I don't know...just making this up as we go....

That "Help, I'm lost!" call:
360-600-2303 (my cell)
Directions:
Coming from the north, take I-5 to 205.
Exit 500 east. Take the "Camas" exit at the light (right turn).
Stay on fourth plain heading east passed the Classic car dismantler (ok, some of you will want to stop and check out that place)
turn right onto 162nd at the corner with the Safeway gas station and Burgerville.
Stay on 162nd. Turn left at 39th (3rd light).
Take 39th east to the stop sign. road jogs to the right at the sign and 39th becomes NE Edmunds. Take NE Edmunds (go strait) to the first street on the left (old yellow house on corner). Turn left onto NE 38th Way.
Street snakes down to the right (east). Continue till you see a strange octagonal house on the right. That is the place. Park on lower level by the black X1/9 or upper level (drive passed the house and up the drive).
From the south, take 205 across the Columbia river to hwy 14 toward Camas (east).
Exit hwy 14 at 164th. Take 164th north (left turn under hwy 14).
Remain on 164th. Road will jog to left, then right and become 162nd.
continue on 162nd till you come to 39th. Turn right onto 39th and use above directions to get to my home.
Or...Google map and use those directions...that is what I would do...
(Google street view shows the house as green. House has been painted tan, no longer green
).
Hope you all can make it and have a good time!
Ciao.
