    OK, here's an addition to the MCG itinerary.Thursday morning, time TBA,
    place:The Hahns Wood Products shop in downtown Somerset.
    A "How To" has been put together for us to learn and for our enjoyment,
    also will benefit the club. An 8" mav/com rearend has been donated with an explorer rear disc brake setup. Frank Cooper will demonstrate "how to"
    add explorer disc brake set up to the 8" rear. Should be very informative and humorous knowing Frank. Afterwards the rear end will be raffled off with all proceeds going to the club(MCG).
    Tickets will be $5.00 each or 10 for $40.00; we need to sell at least 50 tickets.
    We hope you will all join us , this is our first attempt at a "How To" / MCG club fund raiser.
    A special thanks goes out to the Hahn's for donating shop space for this work and to Frank Cooper for instructing.
    See you all there!! Ruth :thumbs2:

    Maverick75, I'm sure there will be pictures taken and then an article published in the MCG newsletter.

    Cool! Maybe the auction could be done in advance and the conversion done on the winners car.

    Allan, It's going to be a raffle. :tiphat: The 8" rear is being cleaned and made pretty, beforehand, so it is going to be done in the shop in a clean environment. Not sure the motel would like a work party like that in their parking lot. However, I do remember a lot of work going on there on Thomas' car last year. :D
