the party starts around 9am.

E-mail me with your contact info and I'll send you directions and an address.

bluewasp@yahoo.com

Tonight we will start on mike's C3 if anyone wants to come by.

There is enough OFF street parking for everyone. You can either follow the driveway around the house and park in the back or park in the front driveway on the right side to allow enough room for cars to drive around back. Behind the house you will have to park in the grass or on the gravel.

Make sure you all bring everything you need. As in coolant, distilled water, special tools, etc... If you forget something there are several autoparts stores down the street. NAPA, Advanced, Autozone.

DOH!!

I'll be there around 9ish. I don't need any special tools, just sockets and the usual.
I'll have a cooler with some soda and beers but I don't have much ice.

You need lifting pads for your C5. I gave my set away when I sold my c5 3 years ago. You can either bend over for the chevy dealer, or one of the vendors on this site or go to a sporting goods store and by 8 hockey pucks.
