Do you think this thing will work on the Karman Ghia? I could use more room in the rear.

There are so many possibilites to go with that statement.

Ranging from the obvious "I know that girl!" to the more obscure, such as a reference to "what, like the back of a Volkswagen?"

It's all about getting the bigger ones to fit.

Bringing this back to the top. As long as the battle wagon is back running, I'm planing on coming up Friday night with a fender tool.

Sounds like Matt's may be a good spot to do it Saturday, unless there;s any other suggestions.......

I'll be up all weekend, so if you can't make it Saturday morning or something, shouldn't be a problem.

Any ideas/tips/queries/suggestions, etc?

Matt or Scott, is it cool if I crash at somebody's place?

MattR · 2004-10-18, 09:13 AM

You're welcome to stay with us as always...And yes, Saturday is fine. Hope that works.

sybir · 2004-10-18, 09:15 AM

Sweet, thanks.

If anyone has alternative suggestions, let me know, I know it's kinda short notice, but we should be able to find some time in that 48 hours to do most people, and it's not like I can't come up again anyways

sperry · 2004-10-18, 09:27 AM

Aaron, you can crash at my place as well. We can also do the rolling at my place as well if Matt's is covered in snow or something.

BTW: How's the wagon coming?

sybir · 2004-10-18, 09:30 AM

Wagon has made zero progress since Thursday due to lack of parts. Outside our control, but it still sucks

Hopefully should be up and runing in the next few days, though.

I scored an Optima blue-top off Scott's old car, the new springs are on the GC coils so I can keep it off the bumpstops while running it loaded, and the compression's been bumped, so I'll be happy to have it back

What are you missing parts-wise? Everything?

sybir · 2004-10-18, 09:49 AM

Umm, most of the stuff came in Friday afternoon, but we had to work on Scott's car, and swapping all the stuff form Nick's car to Nate's.

That went on till almost midnight, and then they got slammed with stuff Saturday and coudn't touch it. Joe may work on it today to button up the motor, but it won't be getting dropped in until tomorrow at the earliest, and mebbe Wednesday if Nate puts the motor back together tomorrow. We were waiting on the heads, since the original heads we were going to use were not EJ25 heads as suspected, but EJ20s, and while it would have dropped compression to turbo-friendly levels, the bottom end would still be weak, and I have not the resources to do a turbo kit as well (plus I have to smog in a few months).
It's got all new accessories; new oil pump, new water pump, belts, all the hoses, new valves, all seals, everything, so it just took a while to get ahold of a couple things. Subaru didn't have replacements for a couple hoses, and told Joe to cut up a heater hose, lol.

So it's coming, and prognosis is could; shjould know more this afternoon.

Then I'll have Nate fab the exhaust in early November, get it on the dyno, and see what it does after the motor's broken in a bit.

I think your rent-a-cop would have a conniption fit.

We've been parking on the street almost every nioght lately, and haven't gotten a ticket. I haven't seen the pseudo-cop in weeks.

Plus, I don't expect to be rolling fenders until all hourse of the night.

MattR · 2004-10-18, 10:02 AM

I capped all those pigs... No more parking citations

YBR bitches

Not true...I was actually going to comment that I hadn't seen them in a while...maybe they gave up the fight...They used to patrol all the time...

You needed heads? You could have had mine if you'd called me before I left saturday.

sybir · 2004-10-18, 08:01 PM

I really appreciate it, but my heads were already getting worked at the time, and it would take a lot of extra fidgeting to make the SOHC setup work correctly on my car. We were just waiting on dinky parts, we had the heads back early last week.

It's ok, we totally rebuilt them, and shaved them down for high compression

sybir · 2004-10-18, 08:12 PM

Update: teh wagon should be up and running tomorrow afternoon.

Anybody needs anything from the shop let me know.

BTW, anyone heard from Brandon?
I need to grab those lights again if he's not purchasing them.....

MattR · 2004-10-18, 08:34 PM

They're sitting in my garage...I think he's MIA..so I'd suggest you take them back with you.

I spoke to him saturday morning, he said he'd have the cash this weekend. He's supposed to have his car and phone back today, so I'd say there's a perhaps 3-10 chance he'll be able to make the meet this week.

ShawnS · 2004-10-18, 10:47 PM

So did we set a specific date and time, or am I out of the loop? :?
