Spring Tune-up Party
May 7, 2016

Don’s Auto Ade (Goodyear) has agreed to host CMGC’s annual tune-up party for the third consecutive year. This is your opportunity to put your MG up in the air and give it a good inspection. If you have a cardiac condition you may want to make sure that your insurance (health and life) is paid up as things can be quite scary underneath, not for the faint of heart. Don’s does have an arc welding unit that we could use as a defibrillator if need be.

Not available is 20W50 oil or filters, so bring your own. There is a Car Quest about a block away. For a charge you can also get your wheels (including wires) balanced and/or aligned and pick up a new set of Goodyear or other brands of rubber.

The scheduled date is Saturday May 7th, starting at 12 noon. All work must be completed by 4PM, but with up to seven racks available we can service a lot of cars. Check in with the Pit Boss (Cowboy) before starting any projects. First come first served -- members MGs have priority -- then their other LBCs.

Don’s is located at 2S781 Rt. 59, Warrenville, about a mile north of the E/W Toll road. At 4PM we’ll take a short drive over to Warrenville’s hidden gem, Two Brothers Brewery. I’m arranging with one of the braumeisters for a little behind the scenes tour before sit down to sample some of their fine food and drink.
