Members, I would like to plan out some minor thinks I have to do to the car this year.  I know that I have been a pain on this point, but I find incredible value from these events.  Since the last one needed to be cancelled due to perceived attendance I thought I would ask whem else would attend if it was scheduled on a day that you could attend. 

Another reason to attend would be to have a subject or speaker attend and explained.  May I suggest subjects like: cooling systems explained, big brake kits, suspension repairs, . . . I am bettign you have some favoriate subjects too. 

Votes???

Thanks Shaun for reply'in.  I can see that ~ 45 people have looked at this thread yet you are the only one that has replied so far.  If I were an analyst my conclusion would be that many people are not yet interested in this yet; unlike you and I.  The cold is certainly a limiting factor in getting things done in my garage too.  Last week I went to Fry's and bought a space heater ($75) to heat the garage so I could replace my power steering hoses and flush my power steering fluid.  It  really provided more of a spot heat than a room heat; yet it did the job.  I soon wish to replace all my coolant hoses and will probably wait until a DIY comes available unless it warms up a bit before the next one gets planned.

Maybe we can make this a topic at the next meeting on Sunday.  But, thanks for the reply.

Electric space heaters are for bathrooms.  I bought about the smallest forced air propane I could get and it heats my garage in 5 minutes.  I have to turn it off or I start sweating.  Its variable 30-55k btu and I got it for about $50 on close-out about this time of the year.

Has anything been scheduled yet?  How about one before the DE?
