    Part 2..

    Maybe a year and a half ago, I bought a really solid e30. It was an 85 325e with all the options other than an LSD. It had euro interior. I had to buy it. It had running issues though, but I limped it home for a 2.7i swap.. again.

    The day I got it.

    I still have the red e30 and love it. I recently bought an e46 and have been doing lots of typical maintenance. I need to take more recent pictures of both these cars. Here is one of the few I have of the e46. I am working on it this weekend and will try and get pictures of it before it gets dark out.

    Current Day-

    I graduated from WCTC for Automotive Collision Repair almost a year ago. I work at my Dad's shop out in Jackson where I recently moved. I learn something new everyday about cars, and if I don't I remind myself of what I learned yesterday. Here's a picture of me learning how horrible those rods are for springing open a sentra trunk, Haha.

    Well, that is my BMW style introduction. Sorry for the picture sizing issues. I would post the other non-bmw cars, but this has taken me an hour and a half already. I do like other cars, but BMW has driven me many miles and counting. It blows my mind looking back at what I thought I new 2 years ago and what I know now. Lastly, of all the cars I've worked on, I enjoy working on my BMW the most. I hope to see you guys at the next meet. Thank you for reading!

            Welcome.

            which shop in Jackson? There are only a few. A few of us are local in WB and Jackson. Nice collection, well, history.

                    Yeah he was! Definitely hustled me tha SOB!! Its all good tho. I got rid of a non-running car and received one hell of a fun one in return. Granted it was a POS when I got it, I think I've slowly fixed everything that Fat Bob ruined in this car. Almost!

                      LOL you know that at some point in the last couple years he has probably thought to himself "Where did I put that extension cord" forgetting that it was used as e-fan wiring :P
