Count me in - I've put it on my calendar.
So the list: DIGMAN52 B.Ratcliff GhostRider jimpo1 ronr FarmerDave darkness777 Solipsist Supercarlover TAHOECRS TigerAce WS6Fanatic The Godmother Any more? I want to make reservations at this hole-in-the-wall Italian joint just down the road from Jano's.
I won't make it, will be out of town. I think my family feels like I've had enough 'Ferrari' time to last me for a while.
Since paint and body is about the only thing I haven't had to do to the 355, I'm yet to visit Jano's shop. Too lazy to search, so how about an address?
4M Body Works & Paint 972.219.0349 624 South Kealy Lewisville TX 75067 http://maps.google.com/maps?q=624+S+Kealy+Ave,+Lewisville,+TX+75057&spn=0.026801,0.040770&hl=en Jano says we're starting around 9, should be done somewhere around noon. He'll have juice and donuts. Afterwards we're headed just up the road to an Italian joint, decent cheap lunch specials and BYOB so you can bring in your adult beverages. Parma Pasta & Pizza 291 East Round Grove Road Suite 170, Lewisville, TX 75067 (214) 488-4447 http://maps.google.com/maps?q=291+East+Round+Grove+Road+Suite+170,+Lewisville,+TX+75067&ll=33.003904,-96.987952&spn=0.026812,0.040770&hl=en How do get from 4M to Parma? http://maps.google.com/maps?spn=0.053614,0.081539&saddr=624+South+Kealy+Ave,+Lewisville+tx&daddr=291+East+Round+Grove+Road,+Lewisville,+TX+75067&hl=en (Obviously there's a straighter shot) Parma's is in a strip mall across the street from a white chapel on 3040
Would anyone mind carting me up there?? My temp gauge is tacked past 260º and I dont really want to risk hurting my motor more than it already is hurting! But I am dedicated on being up there!! SO I WILL BE!! lol To the person who takes me to the restaurant, I will pay for your meal.
I'm not your momma, but maybe you oughta spend your Saturday morning figuring out why your car is overheating?
Ditto to what Dave said, but are you just asking for a ride from Jano's to the restaurant or from somewhere else to Jano's also? Where are you? (Mr. No Profile)
Just from Jano's shop to the restaurant. I live like 4 minutes from Jano's shop. I figured out its just a problem with the gauge being finicky and I think my cluster is going out So the car isnt running hot or anything.
Good to hear it isn't something serious, could have been a lot worse! You could always pick up a cheap temp gauge at Pep boys or autozone or whatever and hook that up, just to make sure you know what's going on.
Oh, does anyone have any traffic cones? I was going to go block 6-7 spots at the diner (they said OK) but don't have any these days.
Wish I could join Yall , but i have to start boxing things up for our move I have tried every excuse but my wife isnt falling for it. .
Thanks to Jano and Rafi for the tour, and to everyone else for showing up. I had a good time and especially liked the de-crumpling of the minivan. I know others took some pics, hopefully people will post.
I don't have any pics to share, but thanks again to Jano and Raffi and their detail guy Dave. I learned more and saw more in two hours today, than the 6 hours I spent in "Collision Repair" CE classes toward renewing my insurance license last yr. Thanks guys! Great event. Can we do something similar with Norwoods soon?
I learned I had no clue how cars really get repaired. Thanks Jano and Rafi for showing us all those different processes, and for the wax! Great use of a Saturday morning.
Sorry I couldnt come, guys. I woke up a little late and was heading there around 11:15, and my radiator burst on College.
Looks like it was a little more than just the gauges or the thermostat, eh? Bummer, man. Sorry to hear that. As far as the event....what an educational experience. As has been said before, thank you to all who were invovled (Jano, Rafi, Dave....and Tillman for arranging it!). Yes....the stretching of the busted-up minivan was all fun And the paint stuff was quite interesting as well. Will, Greg, Phil (there were more, i know...I just can't remember your names....so sorry), it was a pleasure to meet you all. Tillman, Dave, Marci....it was great to see you again. Have a great weekend!
