| Any interest in doing the brakes on my baja this Friday? It should just need new hydraulics from lack of use. I need to get things ready for Bugfair. |

| I am game as always, might not be pizza this time since I would probably ride my motorcycle, but I can bring beer or something else. Actually I have brake "issues" on the Ghia, no brake lights and a little mushy, I am sure they need to be bled, do we have time to do that too? |

| Sure, the good part about working on my cars is it doesn't matter if we leave it partly done. We should give your Ghia a going over and make a list. |

Your place so your call, I am just happy to be able to learn from you and the others. Personally I think you just want me to bring pizza  |

Welcome home. Where are pics from Bugorama? PM ONEBADBUG for directions, I am not one to give up where other people live without them telling me it's ok. |

OK, first of all, it's not a party! It may seem like one, but we do have actual goals. Second, we're not doing any custom stuff, just r&r. Third, I like what Eric said, I try to keep a low profile as far as internet stuff goes. I look forward to seeing you. Third, what happened to Jen? I thought she wanted to do this stuff. |

| Since we are talking brakes, is it safe to say that connecting up an emergency brake is pretty easy? |

I just now got the baja out of the shop, granted most of that time was spent working on the seat mounts, but there was a lot of work after you guys left.
I have mixed feelings about the shop nights, it's fun, but it frustrates me as well because we get so little done. If you guys learn and enjoy, I am happy to do it. I think maybe I need to have Troy all the time, it's hard for one guy to keep up! |
