I talked to Rich today with the GT guys about coming to southern Maryland and doing their thing on some of our gals. We are located about 1.5 hours north of Richmond Va., 1 hour south of Fairfax Va., or 1.5 hours south of Baltimore. I do have a couple of people interested in getting some work done as it is but Rich would like about 5 cars or more depending on the amount of work each of them will get done. I have a 2700 square foot garage (heated) to do all of the work in and a 4 post lift to make things easy. We could have five cars in the shop at once with ease. Rich would like to attempt late February or early March if we can put this together. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the GT guys please check out their website to see what they could do for you (www.thegtguy.com) or look up previous threads on the forum for more feedback. As most of us know there quality is second to none. Please PM me with any questions you may have or to sign up. I will need to get back with Rich within a week or so to set up a date so if you have a weekend that works good for you late February or early March let us know. I know PeteS has used the GT guys before and will probably attend this event as well.:thumbsup

Sounds good Bernie,
Put that weekend on your schedule and plan on it. We have plenty of room and all of us would enjoy your company. I am approximately 1.5 hours from Richmond as it will be a nice country drive to southern Maryland. I will shoot you an e-mail as a contact point and go from there.:cheers

John,
had a really great day a week ago, and look forward to a bit more road time when this weather lightens up. Also, it was good meeting Bernie, Steve, John W., and seeing Rich and Denis again.

I'll try adding to the photo's . . .
