bump. any word on if Mr. Project will be entering wither the Escrap or the Banana?

[Mr Project]

Yeah, because they are both so.... european....

By June I should have the Jetta done.... oooh... stock 8 year old VW. That'd bring a crowd. :D

[Dark Helmet]

hopefully the E28 will look good enough to show.

Armen I expect you to be there with your dad's benz... and your dad!

we intentionally schedule it on fathers day to give the dads out there an extra excuse to go!

[Mr Project]

Ehh... dad's not really the car-show type... and the benz is a nice drive, but it has the usual scars of a 200k car. I'll mention it to him, though!

[Dark Helmet]

my dad always goes with me.... its pretty laid-back, the real goods are the italians that show up... soooooo nice.

tell your dad we'll spend saturday on a nice polish/wax for him... maybe that will encourage him.... and do you think he might be interested in a nice used 528iT???? :D:D

[Dark Helmet]

oh, and the caravan usually leaves town at about 9 or 10.... gathering point is usually the U-Stop at US-6 & 84th Street

[Ryan Stewart]

How many people show? Like 10?

If its big I would be willing to come up. Would a local be willing to donate a driveway and a hose so I could scrape all the bugs off?

[moonluv810]

I'm hoping I'll still have my car. Otherwise, I'll slap a Roundel on my Omni. :D

I believe last year we had 70 entries. Not only BMW's, but all European cars.

Are you talking about this??? :D

[Ryan Stewart]

what about donating a driveway so I can wash mine to show my antique?

[Dark Helmet]

we can work something out.... no worries!

and yes indi.... :drooooooool:

[Mr Project]

Ryan - I'd love to offer my driveway, though it's in Lincoln, so not really on your way up from KC...

And trust me, your car doesn't qualify as antique, especially in my driveway. :D

>>edit: from KC, not to KC.....duh.

[94E36-325is]

I'll have to check into it with the Family. My dad isn't exactly a big car show fan either......I'll see what I can do though.

[Mr Project]

Bump this up to the top... who's still planning on attending? Dad's not bringing his car (nobody has time to clean it up), but there will be a Badeer Boys contingent in the afternoon.

[Dark Helmet]

dude... I got nothing else to do on saturday... I'll detail it for him if it needs it. I'm obviously not showing the E28, and the touring can't be made to be show-clean without an absurd time investment. so if the Benz needs love, let me know!

[Mr Project]

Hmm... if you want to take it on, that could work... you realize that other than your door, the e28 looks better, right? :)

If you're serious, I'll let him know... I'm sure he could leave it here on Friday and take the truck home or something.

And why is that? I'll be pimping in my Omni. :D

[Mr Project]

Heck yeah! The Omni is just a cousin twice removed from a VW Rabbit... That's european! :)

[Mojo325is]

Jeremy-
If nothing to do on Sat, wanna help with a plug replacement? :D

[Dark Helmet]

ummm, what kind of plug????

and Armen, I really doubt it looks worse than the E28, I just don't think that its possible!!! I'll do the ole wash, polish, wax... and maybe adam can bring over the clay-bar stuff! :D:D

I need to check things over with the wife, but I should be free starting at noon.

[Mojo325is]

Jeremy-

I'll bring the clay bar, and spark plugs and oil to change......as well as my CAI (hopefully Jim will be able to help install.......)

See some of you at Husker BMW Thursday?

[94E36-325is]

I won't be in attendence unfortunately. I will be returning from KC but then have plans on the wife's side of the family

[moonluv810]

Bumpity bump... it's tomorrow!!!

[94E36-325is]

How was it?????????? Did anyone get pics??????? I'm still wishin' I could have gone.

[Dark Helmet]

3 Jag XKEs, TWO of them coupes.
original mini that was seriously worked.
54 Jag SSK (IIRC).... gorgeous!
new X5 4.6is
three ti's
993 Turbo
.... other stuff that isn't ringing a bell.

[Mr Project]

328 GTS
2 928S's
MGB/GT MK2
E30 M3
Lots of E36 and E46's
2 Panteras

Yeah, not very big, but some nice hardware. If I could have picked one to take home with me, it would have been the Mini. :) The plate said "HUMR ETR" :buttrock

[Mojo325is]

wanted to g, but didn't get back t the 'rents until 2:30, by the time we would have gotten to Bellevue, it would have been near 3. Wanted to go though :( whats the dilly with the show this weekend here?

[moonluv810]

Yeah, I really got a kick from that Mini :)

[moonluv810]

And here's a sticker on an Isseta. :D

[94E36-325is]

Sounds like it was a good time all the same. I would have been able to go at least.
