The Red River Triumph Club does that.  we are Dallas/Fort Worth.  most 
recently we pulled the engine on a stag.  in the past we have pulled and 
installed a number engines (including an MGB), and even had a day long event 
with members coming and going where we dismantled, bagged, and labeled an 
entire car.  we have a member who has been waffling about having his car 
dismantled.  it needs to be restored and we are trying to get him to commit 
to that first step!

Randall makes some good points. My local Triumph club has several 
experienced members who always come to the aid of owners needing repairs on 
their cars.
When I wanted to install my replacement transmission, I chose a date and 
seven members came to make the job  easy. Am I lucky, or do other clubs 
share experiences like this?
