I have New Year's Day off, my gym will be closed and my car needs nothing. Anyone doing any car work they need a hand with?

Richard,
Depending how much I get done tonight and tomorrow (and depending when the garage owners are due back), I may be wrenching on Thursday. Items still need to attend to: -Remove and fix sticky ignition switch (car is dead until this is fixed) -Finish adjusting intake valves

I’ll probably be stripping the rest of the interior out of the 924T & fitting the “cage” on Wednesday & Thursday. Or I could remove the headers & install the SSI’s on the 2.5 or pull the clamshell trans from the 924T “parts car”, or remove the turbo from the 924T race car for rebuilding, or finish installing the new cooler fan on Linda’s Carrera, or the heater box, or the oil line, or finish installing the counter tops in the garage, or finish cutting up the ’70 faux racer, or… well just say I can always find something to do!

Actually, I'd like to do the oil and valve adjust. You have a good valve tool? Mine's toast.

Parts are not here for the struts/shocks/TB/lower work...already did the Steve Wong Chip...
Let's see...you don't want me doing valves (I send it out)... I can open beers... I used to be able to weld... Don't have the Fabspeed pre-muff yet... Looks like a day with the wife...which is not a bad thing...
