Mod Day
With this being such a tight-knit group, I figured I would toss this idea out there. On another forum I was on, sometimes we would get together for a Mod Day, basically anyone that had any mods they wanted to do, would just come out and everyone would show up, lend a hand, be helpful where possible and get to know each other and the cars. I don't have to explain further the obvious benefits but, just tossing the idea out there to see if you all like the idea.

If this idea gains any forward momentum, then you can have a Blue Moon on me.

Mustang is caught up, but I'll be working on the wife's RAV4. Bought her air horns to taunt the neighborhood squirrels. I'm sure she or I will never use it in traffic or on unsuspecting pedestrians.

I do most all mods at my shop... I would offer it up but due to insurance reasons and such I'm sure the boss man would flip out if a bunch of stangs showed up just for fun. lol Maybe one at a time or something. I'm always up to help, but you know I've been spoiled with wall mounted spring compressors and pneumatic tools

It's kind of a far drive, but I might be able to make it.
