Hey Ken, Can you set aside my fan, Teddy's cooler and chair and I'll catch up with you and pick them up one day this week.

I have finally gotten enough rest that I can now add my 2 cents.
I too, want to thank everyone who came out this weekend. It was the most fun I have had in a very long time. I want to add to everyone's thanking of Ken and Inge for hosting our event and allowing us to take over their home and lives for three days.
I'm grateful to Jake for leading the install of my engine and for tuning the carbs till they were right, despite the heat and late hour.
A special thanks to Clyde for taking care of the cool tin assembly. You saved us days of assembly time by not leaving it in my hands.
Watching everyone working together and seeing finished cars pull out the door and the next car pull in was so much fun.
I can't wait to see all the pictures and see what I missed while I was working on my project. _________________ 73 Typ481

Target also sales this unit for around $64.99 in stores. Which is about what you are going to pay after shipping on e-bay and this way you can return it if there is a problem.

Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for getting you "hooked" on SENSEO and talking it up so much this weekend. Why you ask? The promotional offer is over due to overwhelming response!!
https://www.sharesenseo.com/q5/1.jsp;jsessionid=1A835E50A7C592A3F7EB4F0BF7409D28
Feel free to buy a senseo coffee-maker (just not for $15.00). CHECK OUT EBAY for SENSEO COFFEE MACHINES - there are millions and they are reasonably priced and some even come with the coffee PODS.
Target seems to have the cheepest PODS of coffee, but feel free to experiment other coffee's from this site:

Ken, food was the last thing on my mind as I was leaving. A nap and some AC was all that mattered- and gathering all my tools and stuff. It's a bummer Sam's doesn't sell cheese in a smaller package.
Scott A., Sorry I didn't think to mention the tire rubbing issue that comes with drop spindles and stock wheels. There's too much on my mind, or I'm getting old, or both...
Thanks to everyone who payed dues over the weekend. This weekend is one of our major expenses each year. _________________ '69 Bug, 1776, dual kadrons, Web 111 cam
