    Speaking of spending a ton of money on an older car, I just bought an engine to swap into my already swapped e36 today.

      But these are BMWs that we are talking about. A rusted out Nissan is totally different, although it is a 5spd. :)

              I agree with Hundyandley, I am very excited it is washing the salt away.  We had clean roads, then that last snow came and they salted the hell out of them again.

                I'm seeing snow in the forcast for Saturday morning, and then 56 degrees on Sunday...

                I still haven't got any summer tires for the e34, and the e21 is a couple months away from being roadworthy, so I'm fine with more snow 😄

                  The alternator died on the coupe yesterday. I'm actually really glad it happened now versus two weeks from now on my trip to Euro District=)

                    Alternators are just another unnecesary modern convienience. I once drove an 80s Chevy van from Chicago to Appleton with a conked out alternator. It was EFI too, so it was running the fuel pump, injectors, etc the whole time, and it was my dad's van, so it had the cheapest-one-you-can-get-at-walmart battery.

                    Just buy one of those solar battery chargers from Harbor Freight, and travel like an old person. Take some extra time to stop and take in your surroundings. Don't just stop at the wayside because you have to piss like a race horse. Stop at every wayside, because you have nothing better to do. Set up a lawn chair and eat some cheese and crackers. Try to start conversations with your fellow travelers...

                          when i clean the accumulated crap out from my car i always consider what it weighs and how much faster my car might feel until it accumulates again.

                            Think of the better gas mileage you'll get too!

                            My wife commented "I'm getting better!"

                                Going to the WCEC opener meet today with the gf in her Miata.

                                Any objection if I post the fuckery I see at this car show? Gonna see how many cruzes and new darts I can spot. And maybe subies with hella horns

                                Either way. Wish me luck

                                        Just passed a convoy of cruzes. More stickers than I could count. Plasti dip on all the things. One of their plates was "99 PROB"

                                        This day is going well so far
