Gulf Coast Delorean Owner's "Open House" - October 15th - Tech session/Cruise in

[stevedmc]

As of right now the Gulf Coast Delorean Owners club will be having an "Open House" event on October 15th.

Here is the link to our website: http://www.gulfcoastdeloreans.com/

The club members decided to have this event after learning that most of us would be unable to make the DMCH Open House. We are opening up this event to anyone in the Gulf Coast that is interested in attending but of course this is not meant to compete with the DMCH guys.
Everything is free and is open to owners and enthusiasts as well. Just bring an appetite for cars and burgers.

Agenda:
-Meet at my house in Livingston, Louisiana around 10am
-Grill some burgers
-Have our tech session, exchange stories, and fix whatever needs fixin
-Leave a little after 4pm for the 45 minute cruise down I-12 and I-10 to the Tanger Outlet Center
-Cruise in lasts from 5pm to 9pm

Contact me privately for directions and my phone number. Please post any comments or suggestions on the thread.


Here are the details from the Tanger Outlet Center Cruise In:
10/15/2011
Join in the fun and remember the good old days when cruisin' was the
thing to do those hot summer nights. A Classic Cruise Car Show is held
every third Saturday of the month from 5pm - 9pm (March - October) in
the parking lot between Suite 159 and Cracker Barrel.

I wish I could but I doubt Red would make it even if I didn't have prior plans. By next year I expect Red to be in much better condition.

Wow, now that is a cool idea. Such tech sessions at home I have not seen over here yet. Must be great. Please send pics afterwards.

Sorry about the lack of updates on the website... I keep forgetting which computer I left the files on. I should be able to put up the info this afternoon, and I will take plenty of pictures Saturday to post after the fact.

Alabama isn't that far for me. Be sure to invite me to your next shin dig.

[Farrar]

Are the girlfriends/wives coming? Ally can come but she doesn't want to be the only female in attendance.

Also, do you need any supplies? Dip? Dr. Pepper?

I won't be making it either. Just a little too far without a lot of time on my hands. I'll be going to a local show though here in Destin. I know Destin is almost 3 hours from Gulf Shores but just letting you know where I'll be if your in the neighborhood.

Farrar

Fred was interested in bringing his wife. That would be perfect for the time spent at Tanger but I'm not sure about the time at my house. I have a tv and a sofa, thats about all there is to keep them entertained. The closest mall to my house is 20-30 mins away.

Drew said he will be joining us as well. He's a single man, so he's going to be solo as well. You are welcome to bring Ally along but it could get boring for her.

I would get in touch with Fred and if his wife is still interested in going yall could maybe come in the afternoon so they wouldn't be bored so much. Its up to you guys. I don't have much work to do but we can work on whatever till 4ish. I'd love to see if I can help figure out some of your car problems.

Does anyone have any specific problems they would like to work on Saturday? I started compiling a list of some small things I need to do. I'll probably start on my list sometime Saturday morning before everyone arrives and we can work on other stuff as well. I have no plan to finish all of my stuff that day but I just thought it would be a good idea to list some things to work on this time.

1. Passenger window is slightly off track (I'd also like to remove door lock solenoid and front lock rod while I'm in there)
2. One of my speaker connections seems to be loose
3. Need to reinstall rear fascia support (I removed it when I was fixing an oil leak last weekend)
4. My glove box lid needs to be installed (Right now it just sits there, unfastened)
5. Replace fuel injector plugs with the handy ones Farrar gave me (my car is carbureted)
6. Steering bushing needs to be repalced (I don't even have one on order but I'm adding this to my honey do list anyway)
7. Intsallation of red neck cruise control unit (ordering today)

I certainly don't plan on doing all of this stuff Saturday. I'm looking forward to spending time working on Farrar's car and swapping parts with him to see if we can figure out what seems to be causing his problems.

Does anyone else have a honey do list of things that need to be done?
