Hey guys, checking in... have yet to meet up with any locals (although it turns out I randomly ran into RangerX at a car wash days after I got my 325 years ago, before I had any clue about the forums)

I'm not much for mods (beyond wheels/tires/audio) and I'm not terribly handy but I appreciate others' handiwork and enthusiasm for these vehicles. I'm probably the old fart here (45) but would be up for the occasional drive/BBQ/etc, although I don't imagine those will be happening again until spring/summer.

I'd consider acquiring another BMW, if the car/deal was right. If you know of anything interesting for sale locally, let me know. Fan of E24, E30, E39... would love an 840 but finding a nice one within driving distance is a tall order.

Happy Motoring,
-Peter

**Hendrik** · 12-19-2009, 11:52 AM

planning on meeting at jays shop in south burlington behind the airport. i will be there no matter what working on my mk1 rabbit... time wise we were thinking anywhere from 4pm on.. Jay is busy till 5ish and i will most likely be at the shop till around 8ish.. i will have my cameras with me so whenever.. they just clearcut around the parking lot at his shop and it looks like it would be a good spot to take some shot.. we can also do some stuff inside for that industrial look.. ill pm my number..

If anyone wants to come other then the people I pmed shoot me a pm and ill give you my cell #

**Hendrik** · 12-20-2009, 12:04 AM

Ya good times!! Lets do it again soon, I def want to do some rolling shots!!

**ptinvt** · 12-20-2009, 10:25 AM

Thanks guys, nice to meet everyone. I'll be lurking and looking forward to future gatherings. You guys have some mad skills!

Attached is a pic of my other car. Don't hate me for going with CSL rep wheels... aside from the audio, I have only one mod on this car, which I had installed by a mechanic friend, a module that allows full automatic remote control top operation:

By the way, I have a bunch of audio stuff lying around if you or anyone you know might be interested:

JL 2x12 in sealed box
Alpine 500/1
JL 10 in sealed trapezoidal box (bought for vert but trunk is such a vault it didn't make a dent)
Alpine 2/1, 140/2 or 400/1

**Hendrik** · 12-20-2009, 11:24 AM

thats sweet that you can remotely put up your roof! Do you have a hardtop for it too? Looks like it in the avatar pic.

So I really want to do some rolling shots, need to find a roadway where we can drive next to each other but not a fast highway, I am of the understanding that 30mph is the perfect speed for rolling shots... I am thinking a new years photo shoot in the daytime? I am open to suggestions on where and when. Let me know..

just saw this in another thread.. thought it was funny.... haha
