Default Triad fender rolling meet: October 25-RAIN?

::EDITED::

Hey guys, I need to get my fenders rolled and Yellow Jacket (sorry I don't know his name yet) is willing to roll anyones fenders for $25 a fender, with a real fender rolling tool. That's a pretty good price and I am sure he will actually care how they come out, unlike some guy at a shop with a baseball bat guessing at what he is doing. He said he would be willing to come to our area and roll a few guys fenders if I can get a few together. We could do it at my house in Wallburg (Winston Salem) or any one elses house that wants to volunteer. It would also be a good time for some of us to meet and mayby go for a drive.

Date and time are Saturday, October 25th at around 9:30-10.

Yves and I may try to go ahead and get up and get mine out of the way before everyone else shows up.

I also have a very dippy road that I rubbed on 4 times last weekend. It will be a great before and after road to drive on to see how much difference the rolled fenders make. I may fire up the grill while we are waiting and we can have a beer and burger while we wait. Yves, you're more than welcome to take breaks and hang out with us!

Also, whoever has a floor jack that will fit under their car, please bring it. Having two or three jacks will speed things up.

Rich I will be very interested if I get the S2K I am looking at in a week or so. Althought if he is in Raleigh it will probably be easier for me to go to him, but I wouldn't mind hopping out for a drive and some fender rolling in Winston Salem.

I assume Yves (I figured out Yellow Jackets name!) is in the Greenville SC area. He is willing to drive up to help us out. We should chip in for some gas though if he comes. I don't mind.

Anyone else interested? There's a possible two... I think we need a few more to make it worth his while. Come on guys, you know that rubbing is getting old!!

I'm about 1/2 way between. I need this done and I guess I can go north instead of south. Unfortunately my schedule is usually pretty busy so once you get a date set let me know so I can try to hold it.

Thanks.

To answer the go wrong question, i did mine in small increments to prevent anything going wrong. this tool makes it pretty much idiot proof.

I would be willing to meet up. I don't have rims yet but I might as well go ahead and get it done while I can.

Alright guys, that's a possible five guys interested. Yves, how many cars do you need to make it worthwhile for you to come up? The first weekend I have free, I think is going to be October 25th. Good greif thats a long time!! I might could do it on October fourth (not this weekend, but next), but I need to check with the other half. Who is definately in besides myself? And when is a good weekend for everyone (including Yves)? Thanks guys!

I could do it the weekend of the 25th. All other weekends I have to work and also have Drill for the National Guard.
