Work Night

Thanks to all the guys who showed up and stayed until the early hours working on the car!  I apologize that there wasn't enough work for everyone at any given time, but hopefully we'll be a bit more organized this coming weekend.  

I uploaded the time-lapse to our Youtube channel, http://www.youtube.com/solarjackets.  Sorry for the poor quality, it's the best we have at the moment.

Here are some pictures from both Saturday night and Sunday afternoon:

The Audi before we got to work.

Taking bolts and screws out to remove the front panel, a required step to get to the radiator.  This required removing each front tires (on different occasions) to get to bolts tucked away in the car.

Ryan jerry-rigged a device to keep the light switch from cutting out on us.  Shop rule #2 still applies.

Scrap wood + duct tape = lights on

Another angle of the car.

Ryan and Forrest set to work taking the air intake filter out.

Project Manager John Forrest takes charge and drains the oil.

Here it goes!  Taking the hood off wasn't required but it sure makes for better working conditions.  It's currently wrapped in plastic and tied to the wall.

Huh, I swore there used to be something here... Oh wait, the radiator.

The engine will be one of the last components to be removed, and a doozie it will be.

Buzz approves!

Again, thanks to those who gave up their Saturday evening to work on the car.  Members: Keep checking our email for important updates and information, it's the easiest way for us to share information such as changes in meeting times and work sessions.

Cheers,

Morgan
