We can use my place again.
I still need to do the front brake lines, the petcock, and the vac lines.
Hope the weather doesn't suck...again.

I have been wrenching ALL week long, and NOT on airplanes. I am still trying to get the cruise control working on the bike and I have been doing countless things on the '65 Chevy.

It is suppose to be on Sunday, but let's move it to Saturday in hopes of better weather. Does 8:00 AM sound good? |

I definitely want to go. I have a commitment on Saturday that I'm going to try to do on Friday instead.
I would like to turn my rear signal lights to running lights and maybe change my air filter. Mainly I just want to learn from the pros.

I'm in. Thanks VP & GF!
Does anyone other than me still need or want to sync carburetors? If so, and if someone at the party knows how it's done, I'll arrange a rendezvous with Flyboy to borrow the gauges and needle-nose pliers.

I'd like to do mine again after I change the vac lines. Not a big deal if I don't, though. It's pretty much a snap to do. |

Sat AM is good for me. Maybe carb sync will solve new prob that reared it's ugly head (crapping @ high RPM) after last wrench party?
