Brake installation and clutch cleaning commences at 12 o'clock tomorrow and continues until completed. Rob will be leading the wrench bending with my feeble assistance, when I am not busy taking pictures for him.

High noon is when the fun begins. I have to be someplace at 9am for an hour or two so noon is a good time to start. It would be best to call my cell if anyone wants to stop by to make sure we are there. We'll be working at 1pm for sure so there won't be a need to call after 1pm.

What I wanted for Christmas was a new engine for the '89. I'm so glad you said that you can make it happen! When can I expect the delivery?

With enough money, I can make anything happen!
Perhaps some nice platinum and ruby canines?

Although the color scheme would indeed match one of my vehicles and also coordinate well with the other, I think I shall pass I had a little something different in mind...

Thanks to Waspie, I can hold off for a while

Sounds good to me. We could probably charge admission just to watch the initial sprint to the carts.
