    Tried to get some car pics, but my best shot tonight was a tree again.

    Great shot. I didn't know that Flickr had interactive imbedded images. What link did you post here from the site?

      Love this!  It makes me want to buy a camera.

      Thanks Brian. I never  thought I'd be getting into photography, but it's a good excuse to get outdoors and I enjoy the process as much as the results.

      I copied the "embed" link, then on this site I had to switch to the "Source" view and paste it in there.

        What do you guys think of changing the water pump on a 335 as preventive maintenance? I'll be dropping the subframe this weekend to tackle my oil pan gasket and am wondering if it's worth just changing it while I have everything out of the way. I'm at 83000 miles 

        Yes.

            It's good to listen to Pat and I.  He once owned the world's fastest N54 in wisconsin and my father-in-laws 335i won an award for the #1 best car in the driveway at grandpa's house according to one of my children.

                                          i’d gladly donate to the M42/M44 replacement fund if you decide to drop a used motor in

                                          Funds aren't an issue, it's just the logistics of getting around right now. The person I normally ask to drive me around when my car is broken is sheltering-in-place because her 80yr old father lives with her. I was on my way home from covid testing when the car blew up (been running a mild fever since Wednesday), so that's not gonna work. We have a work-van that I could borrow to go get an engine from my storage unit, but it's an M42, not an M44, should be easy enough to get running though... That's probably the best option, I just don't know if I'm passionate enough about the compact to want to do the work right now. It's never really lived up to my expectations. I got spoiled driving the e34 and the transition to the base-model-AF compact wasn't very satisfying.

                                          Just need to find a ride to Nebraska...
