Where ya at in Utah? there's a handful of us here in Utah that get together a couple of times per year.

Let me know if I can be helpful.

Hey all in Utah! I'm in Draper, and the weather lately is making me think of all the work I want to do to my Spider. Fresh set of tires going on tomorrow morning.

@Maytag, did you ever get your engine build complete?

We'll need to coordinate a meetup sometime soon.

St George. 100 degree temps in the afternoon and 70s in the mornings. Fantastic weather for driving a Spider.

Head gasket replaced - engine back together and running. Now I'm working on brake issues. Once that's complete - then we take her for a spin.
I hope the rest of you are out enjoying the summer weather in Utah.
