Part out party

This weekend sounds good to me

**SmithKid** · February 1st, 2011, 04:21 PM

I'm still planning to go. Still willing to take my pickup. Sounds like that might help. Do you have a tentative headcount so far Mr. Poohbah?

**Jeff W** · February 1st, 2011, 04:58 PM

I won't be going, but if someone could pick up a few parts that Steve has set aside, that would be swell.

I can't think of anything else I'm currently in need of.

Have fun and be safe.

Someone needs to take some good pictures for the newsletter.

The only other person still holding out on availability this weekend (who wanted to go) is Kenny. Kenny?

**redfalken** · February 2nd, 2011, 10:17 AM

Sorry, I'm still on the fence. Jessica just found out she may be heading to Tucson very soon (maybe this weekend??) for a funeral so I'll have to wait and see what her travel plans are.

Roger - I'll give you a call if I can go (as soon as I know for sure) and probably come over to your place to carpool.

**Luva65wagon** · February 2nd, 2011, 09:17 PM

We'd hate to have you miss out on all the fun, but it's understandable. Just let me know when you can.

Gene, it would be really helpful to have a pickup capable of hauling those of us who can go (so far 3, 4 if Kenny can make it). The ferry trip will be cheaper for sure. That way we can haul a few things back. We'll be sure not to mess up your bed.

**redfalken** · February 2nd, 2011, 10:29 PM

Well, she won't be traveling on Saturday so I can go. Just tell me where to be and when.

**SmithKid** · February 2nd, 2011, 10:37 PM

Sounds good to me. What time, and where, are we meeting? Anyone North of me (Bill?) is welcome to meet at my house for car-pooling to the rendevous point.

**Jeff W** · February 2nd, 2011, 11:11 PM

Roger, if you don't need this item, I could use 6 of the old style fender bolt J-Nuts (5/16-24. The pre-64 used the fine threads... I am short 5 and they are not reproduced. I could change all mine out for the new style like Patrick... but it's hard to open my wallet.

I am also looking for two of the tow brackets that mount along with the front bumper bracket to frame bolts.

have fun you guys...

**doghows** · February 3rd, 2011, 08:22 AM

Jeff; I have those pieces as well. I will add them to your pile. The tow brackets are already powder coated and I don't think I will use them on the delivery. Those "J" nut things I will bring to the shop tomorrow and glass bead them so they are clean for your car. I am pretty sure i have at least five of them.
Let me know what time you guys are leaving and I will have the cars in the shop and a fire going if it is cold. Looks like a total of 4 or 5??
I should have a set of torches at the house, hopefully he has enough gas in the bottles for what ever we need.
See you guys Saturday...

**BillP 98201** · February 3rd, 2011, 08:28 AM

Just let me know what time. Do we need to take anything? Tools ramps jackstands?

**Luva65wagon** · February 3rd, 2011, 09:19 AM

Great Kenny - the more the merrier.

We'll be taking the Edmonds-Kingston ferry over the water, so I'll have to look and see if there is a park and ride somewhere nearby for at least Kenny. But I could go there too and Gene and Bill can go there and get us.

Ferry departure times on Saturday are 5:35, 7:10, 7:50, 8:50, 9:40. We should try for the 7:50 at the latest, I think. Means we arrive at the ferry at about 7:15-7:30. They're usually not too crowded on weekends during the winter. It's about another 45 minutes to an hour drive once you are off the ferry.

Bring whatever tools and jacks you can. Steve, not sure what you have around there to list two cars up off the ground as they are dissected.

I'll post more later after I do some research.

**doghows** · February 3rd, 2011, 11:29 AM

I have one floor jack, one bottle jack. A small tractor, engine hoist, 3 sets of jack stands, (6each) air compressor, and plenty of tools. I have spring compressor, welder, should have a cutting torch available.
I have lots of hammers and penetrating oil.. I will have some sodas, water and the wife said she would help me cook some burgers and or hot dogs if we want them. Looking forward to it. Sounds like I should see you guys around 9am???

Thank you Steve!

I have a bunch of hardware I kept from when I had the '64 Ranchero (all fine thread). Probably have some of these already cleaned and reblackened using Eastwood black-oxide dip.

These j-nuts are for the upper fender, so you'll need the longer ones - right? Go ahead and blast some Steve, just in case I don't have any fine thread ones.
