    I know you offered burgers and dogs, but I've got eight packs of Johnsonville brats in the freezer (they were on sale, so I stocked up!), and there's nothing better than a Johnsonville brat grilled over coals. Also, have the appropriate Maier's Italian Steak Rolls to nestle those puppies into...then top with Newman's Own hot salsa, and a slice of melted cheese... Oh, man, I'm gettin' hungry... and I JUST ATE!

    So, who wants brats!?

    Looks like the party is gonna happen for my sis. Also have a lady friend coming into town next weekend that I MUST give some precious time to.

    You guys have fun and know that I will have my window brackets in my garage for another 6 months without ever doing them. *sigh*

    I never thought to look under "meets." I'll be there. My wife is in town and she'll drive us down. I'll bring all my remaining odds and ends off the Ebony.

    I was late on ordering my brackets; not sure they have even shipped yet and may not make it in time.

    I would like help on fixing my cruise control,which doesnt' work after the engine install. the lights come when the functions are pressed.

    What's left? Maybe I could convince Tom to store them for me if there's anything of interest.

    I have my brackets too but haven't picked up any adhesive yet. Which reminds me, after reading some of the recent window fixing posts, how long are we thinking it will take for the adhesive to fully cure so that we can put everything back together? I'm sure you don't want us camping out all night waiting for the windows to dry! And hopefully someone attending has successfully done the repairs before?

    Looking forward to meeting everyone tomorrow. What time is everyone showing up? Let me know if there is anything I can bring along.

    Tim at SBC told me that specific Liquid Nails took 18 hrs to cure and I could drive it right away, windows up, no problem.

    Well, I rolled down the left front window this morning and the window went cockeyed as it finally broke off the bracket(s) . Looks like my window fixin party is solo in San Diego in 1-2 weeks as I ordered my brackets from SBC. Unless I missed it checkin' through the threads, is the Liquid Nails one tube color (in the pic) or are they all the same color and need to buy a certain application?
