BBQ/Tech day at my house, June 19

I'll take the June slot as I'm way too busy for hosting in May, what with my GF and I having our anniv, her 21 bday, and then a week in Vegas June 4-11.

So there will be a potluck/BBQ at my house June 19, which is a Saturday for those of you who like to indulge in the drink. There will also be 2 spots open in my garage for anyone who wants to do some work or installs. I have a couple floor jacks, 2 sets of stands (no lift...yet), and lots of tools, plus wiring suplies (solder/crimp).

Let me know if you're interested so I know what I'll be picking up, preferably before June 19

Still waiting for them to get assembled. All the machining is done, so they should be ready next week or the week after.

Ah, I'm a block away from you off Airport too. Funny I don't see you more. When the weather is nicer, we'll have a bonfire at my place peeps.Driveway is flat. Long, probably fit 4-5 in it, but its skinny, so sort of got to plan timing of cars. Tyler & Shane know what I mean.

Ok guys and galls, I need to know ASAP who's interested and think they might make it, as well as anyone who's is sure they can make it, and what they want to bring.

And for those that are sure they can make it, let's get an idea of what kind of projects people want to work on, so we can get an idea of what kind of work those interested in wrenching will be doing.

Note for Josel: Andy @ AMR called, my coils are on their way to my place, so we're a go for an install on your car if you make it.

I am pretty sure I'm in. I'll bring a jack, stands, and miscellaneous tools. Should I bring my portable compressor, impact wrench? I imagine you got all that Andrew. I also have spring compressors, grease for the top, and other various items.

I have partly cloudy and highs of 64 for saturday, subject to change.

I have most every basic hand tool anyone could need, as well as the special socket/wrenches needed to take struts apart (easier), if anyone had springs or dampers that needed replacing.

What I do not have, however, are pneumatic tools I prefer to work in the quiet, with just music playing usually, so I have yet to break down and buy a compressor.

I have a few folding chairs, and a patio table/chair set, so I have outdoor seating for ~7 and a smallish firepit. I have a big Pepsi fridge in my garage, so if you bring drinks, we can get them cold. If you prefer sitting inside to working in the garage or mingling outside, I have a 60" tv, PS3, and Xbox360, and a **** load of movies, as well as wifi if you bring a laptop or whatever.

Also, parking will not be an issue, 2 in garage, and probably ~10 or so cars fit in my parking area in the front of the house.

One thing to note: all I have for grilling is a Weber pot BBQ, uses only briquettes, so the cooking will be done all at once. I have some beer, hard A, and pop/gatorade in the garage now, I will most likely buy a Costco pack of Brats and ground beef, buns, etc... for a main dish. I like meat, and I expect you to as well.
