he is mechanically declined. it is sort of a family tradition. unless it can be fixed with either duct tape or hot glue it just won't work out.

just buy the pizza and soda, and have plenty of bottled/filtered water on hand and you can count me in. i've got good tools and i'm fairly good with them. better make it soon, though, while you've still got the weather on your side.

ok i just checked out my work schedule, i could probably do it friday night the 20th into saturday (the 21st). i do have to leave for work on saturday at 4:30, but the car doesn't have to be working then, because i can get a ride from my girlfriend.

so how does that sound? friday night or saturday afternoon. i'll buy pizza and soda (and water jim).

if your still looking for help, I could possibly show up sometime, i worked 2 years as a mechanic and did all the work on my SS myself, lowering springs, clutch, exhaust, complete rear end swap, brakes, and other stuff. let me know, i have limited free time but maybe we can figure something out.

what kind of brakes are you putting on Pat? Baer? Or are they upgrades?
rear shocks and springs are easy.
