Well, well, well..
SOS '06 is the day after Thanksgiving, Fri & Sat, November 24 & 25.
Here's a <pic <http://ourdreamfarm.com/WST%20and%20MF%20copy.jpg> > of the
Thicko shop. (The late, jazz great Maynard Ferguson was here last year for a
party)
Things are progressing nicely for our annual gathering of the faithful.
Some needs.
It would be helpful if everyone that shows up brings a can of brake cleaner,
and a pack of paper towels.
We have some food lined up Dr. Fine is bringing some ho-made. (yes, he is a
"ho") beef jerky. We can always use food donations. but please check with us
first, as we have incredibly high standards when it comes to feeding the
Thicko faithful.
Larry "Dr. Fine" Daniels and Bud "Our Bud" Pazur came over last weekend and
helped get the Thicko International Headquarters swept out. We've still got
some work to do. move some of the fleet around to maximize work space for
the 5 or 6 projects we have lined up so far.
In the queue.
Assembly of Kris Larsen's new, freshly painted race car. (Kris? Kris
usually responds with a 3 week time delay)
Disassembly of 3 cars that will be melted down and find their way to China
where they'll be made into bench vices and sold at Harbor Freight. If the
weather cooperates, we'll power wash & sandblast any useful components
saved, and begin rebuilding them for future projects.
Removing the 1098 from Tutone's MKIII Sprite and installing his freshly
rebuilt 1275. (Note. this car will be auctioned off for the highest bid
Friday afternoon if it isn't ready to leave under its own power, since its
been here a year , and a certain Epiphone hugger hasn't done dick to it in
all those 12 months).
Constructing a tilt, steel Spridget front end on Bud Pazur's silver racecar.
Reassembly of the Bishop race motor and reinstalling.
Searching the archives (my cold storage area) for some of the bits necessary
to begin a test assembly of my Ashley GT project.
We may have a few other things to do as well.
