Calling all NorCal Stangfix'ers Engine/Trans removal GTG
« on: April, 08, 2010, 08:21:18 AM »
Good morning everyone,
    I was talking with Jeff last night at the Boston Market Cruise In and we figured it was time for me to get my act together and get the engine and transmission out of Fred.

Any and all NorCal Stangfix'ers please chime in so we can get a date all set up. I was thinking about doing it on my birthday weekend but I found out that, that weekend is the only weekend in May I have plans that I didn't know about. Spoiled someones surprise.  :beat  Any Saturday or Sunday in May will be just fine with me with the exception of May 8th and May 9th, also, if you guys want to suggest times so I can prepare for some kind of meal (some grilled Carne Asada, Chips, Guacamole and Coronas or something).

Thanks everyone.
   Abe

Unless I'm busy doing my nails, I should be available.  Do you have a cherry picker?

If you don't, I'm sure one of us who do, can bring one.

In another life I was someone else but now I'm who I'am. Well sort of on alternating Tuesdays if my Meds are just right.

Naw, this little event won't interfere with Shag's startup.  I have already posted my "slight delay" post.

I have no idea what's going on with my schedule now for the next 9 weeks.  If I'm available on the correct weekend, I'd love to come help.

The 1st weekend of May doesn't work for me 23rd anniversary on the 2nd so I promised I would take the wife to MMA mud match, and bowling, and perhaps Dennys if she is really good.

Isn't there 5 days between every weekend.  It can only take a couple of hours tops to pull a motor!  :nta

I can be there that weekend.  At least we don't have to worry about scratching any good paint.  :ecit

Get some PB Blaster and hit all the attaching hardware a few days beforehand.
