Need help planning for a week of Tunebugging

The week of April 12 - 18 is spring break at my school district (where I work). I've already got Thursday and Friday off, and just decided to take Monday through Wednesday off as well. I've got no other commitments for that week, so I've decided to spend the entire week in the garage making some progress on the Tunebug.

I'll need some help getting myself organized for this. I'll be looking through my parts this week to see what I'm missing so that I can get an order off right away if necessary. Any other things I should be thinking of in preparation? I'll post a list of the projects I still have when I get home from work tonight.

Anyone want a week free lodging in the Utah mountains in exchange for a bit of wrenching and expert advice? I'd love the help...

ummmm.... nope. As seductive as it is to contemplate a week wallowin' around with an old English car, the Utah "spring" weather just isn't that intriguing. Sorry. :devilgrin:

Sounds enticing, but while my wrenching skills are pretty good, my advice is probably far from expert. :wink:


Springtime in Utah can't be so different than here in Colorado. Yesterday was sunny, today it's a blizzard outside. Isn't that normal?? :laugh:

I wish I had a full week to tinker with the Bugeye. I'm still not done installing the tube shock kit I got from Frontline last month.....and it's a simple bolt-on! Time just isn't on my side right now.

Good luck and have fun!

That about sums it up here as well. You sure you don't miss this, Doc. It was at least 40 today... :smile:

You ~know~ I consider 50* or below to be "life-threat" Drew.

Move down here and you'd never get rid of me!!! :devilgrin:

Actually when I was there in January (actually a few miles away at Brighton) it was quite pleasant if you had at least 3 layers on, and there was a lot of the nice white stuff falling all the time, which, after all, was why we were there.

From the top of Brighton you can look down into the Heber valley, Drew, so I guess I could have seen your neck of the woods with a suitable telescope...
