A few weeks ago, while wrenching on @raanderson77 's 62 and drinking a couple beers, he suggested a camp-out wrenching party at my place. It sounded like a good idea, so I'm going with it.
We're going to be attacking my green 80 with a plasma cutter and some sawzalls and turning it into a single cab wheeling machine. Hopefully there's enough time and ambition to even weld some stuff back onto it after we cut things off. I'm going to work on doing some prep work ahead of time, the idea is that its ready to trailer to GSMTR and wheel.
I have enough room inside the shop for another vehicle, and plenty outside. If anyone else has any projects they want to bring along and could use some assistance with, feel free to do so. Maybe post up so we can make sure theres enough time/space/people to make it happen? This could maybe be an opportunity to ready some other rigs for GSMTR, or just a time to get some help on some maintenance items.
If there's any interest, we can make this into a multi-day event. I have room for several rigs to camp out, and we could do a campfire, sing Kumbaya and all that good stuff. I don't have neighbors right on top of me, but they are sort of within earshot, so we can only get mildly crazy with evening activities. I was thinking that most of the shop stuff would happen Saturday the 26th, but thats all dependent on what kind of interest we have with the idea. I don't have anything else planned this weekend, so I'm open to any ideas. My place is located just outside of Siler City NC, 27344. I'll post up more details on location as we get closer to the date.
