[T3] 2026 Invasion Updates...

[Keith Park]

Looks like Ill be bungie cording my shifter to keep it in 4th for the summer before I can rip it out again and hopefully
Have it fixed right this time in October, I have a request on the Tranny tech session, a lesson on what holds them in gear,
And why they pop out when they get worn, or what is not doing its job if its not supposed to be worn.  I still don’t have a picture
In my head of why it pops out but my builder assures me its not the new 4th gear itself.

Just 6 weeks away! Made a bunch of updates to the Invasion website including adding the Tech Sessions and details for the Early-Bird Get-together to the Schedule of Events. Also added some preliminary info about the Saturday Dinner.

I also updated the Invaders List and Map with more folks. We are over 30 planned Invaders at this point! Lots of first time Invaders as well.

Check it all out here... https://www.carartbyjohn.com/2026Invasion/index.html

I have also place the order for the Invasion shirts. Invasion Awards builds are in progress. I have name tags ordered.

I was also reminded that the Host Hotel is only holding the block of rooms for the Invasion until May 25th.  Get on it if you haven’t made your reservation yet and want to stay at the host hotel.

I am also working hard to get our cars ready for the trip out to WI. Sophy got new ball joints from ISP West and an alignment. She also got new front brake flex hoses.. Jill's Ghia got a new ignition switch thanks to the folks at ISP West. I also finished leather wrapping her steering wheel after adding some extra foam padding. I have also been knocking off some small items on her car like modeling and 3D printing new sunvisor clips and adjusting some of the door rubber and other details. Both cars still need an oil change and valve check.

Will have lots to talk about at the Invasion. <G>

Hope everyone's prep is going well...
