    Wasn't me, my e30 is hibernating until spring. Can't wait for the snow and salt to disappear!

    "thor:it" haha, that name has to go. In all my haste to join in the community, it was the first name that came to mind, and it's dumb. Who knows how to change usernames?

    What are your requirements for bringing the E30 out for the year?

    Mine usually comes out after all the snow is melted and at least 2 decent rainstorms have hit.... it may be nuts, but man is it nice to work on a rust free car.

      Haha! Dealt with. Got a fresh new name now. I do design visualization, and my name is Ian, so now, like other sites, I am visian. I normally do the same - wait for the snow to disappear and watch for the salt coating on roads to thin out. I think this year I may just wait for the snow to disappear and then make sure to keep it clean. I want an early start this year (as it continues to snow outside...)

        Ian, I think we should combine forces.

                                    I've seen this car around too, but don't know who it is. There is also a white one I think if I'm remembering correctly somewhere around the eastside. I bet that E34 looked sharp!
