Jerry from Eurotechs has graciously agreed to open up his shop for us from 10am to 4pm on Saturday, November 19th for a tech day.

Most of the agenda has been booked but if you'd like to come by and watch or help or just hang out we'd love to see you there. also If you do have some work you need done come by and we may be able to squeeze you in.

Pizza and beverages will be provided!

This is a GREAT Opportunity for those who have not joined us on a Tech Day. I'll be there to help out as well and I am sure there will be others that have experience to help out as well.
Thanks Jerry!!! :D

Pepper is at EuroTechs right now, as I write this, and I have never felt as confident that she is being well-taken care of as I do right now.

I'd love to come see whatever comes off, goes on, what the parts look like and meet Jerry. If I can get the day off from my new job, I'll be there. Times?

We have had a few people have issues with convertible quarter window mech breaking... I had did one side about a month ago, and now the passenger side needs to be replaced. I just have to get the part for replacement. If anyone is interested in that...

OK It's on!

I'll be posting the official thread later this evening but I wanted to get this out there!

Saturday, November 19th
10:00am to 4:00pm (just in time to head up to Pavillions Car show)
Pizza and Beverages will be provided.

Jerry says w/ the manpower we have volenteering he thinks we should be able to get ALL of the jobs above taken care of! So come on out and bring your parts!

Even if you didn't get on the list come on out to hang out, watch the fun, and maybe even get something done to your MINI if there's enough time left.

Jerry wanted me to mention he recomends getting an alignment done after putting the springs in, and his alignment guy isn't open on Saturdays so you'll be on your own to get one.

I guess I should also mention if you don't already have the parts give Jerry a call so he can give you a price/ get them ordered.

Didn't know they did alignments there at Eurotechs. I used to go to the Firestone at Dobson and Main for years. They did a great job, but the light rail took over that space, and I haven't found a place as good since.

Good to know.... Thanks!
