Things are shaping up, on Feb 10th we'll have John Wessels in to do carburators. he will take them from the early 1900's and on thru to a double pumper and show how to rebuild them; John Mullen will get into Flathead engines doing the valvetrain on an 8ba, them we'll have an earlier 21stud flattie and we can see the evolution.
We are also talking with the Va State Police about opening that seminar, they will go thru the legal niceties of having a hot rod on the highway.
We be doing other subjects on that day, including ignition systems maybe some overhead valve stuff, electrical wiring etc.
I am very pleased that Tom Mancuso will be doing the leading again, he and fellow ClubHotRodder 'MP&C' (Robert) will be doing the sheetmetal forming on March 10th. Robert has a true gift, his workmanship is amazing but he can explain what he is doing in a way that you can see and understand. Tom and Robert will have the full day as long as it takes on March 10th. I will also spend time showing not just basic tig welding but how to fusion weld sheetmetal, this will be hands-on so bring your shield.
The 1st seminar on Jan 13th is not finalized, i think it will be a killer session and hopefully - lots of things to work out as yet - we'll tear into and narrow a banjo rear! and some other trick stuff. It will be a very special seminar if we can make it happen.
