While I wouldn't be surprised, I've never seen that in print. And I did use it for that one time, a parts car about 80 miles away. It was still on the street, I wiped it down and washed the windows so it didn't look like it didn't run. When he got it home he said something about spiderwebs in the wheelwells, damn, I didn't think about them. He didn't seem to care but I gave him a $20 and he was more than good with it then. They may (or may not) be grunts, but treat them well, they hold the power and are just working stiffs too.wkohler wrote:Using it to tow a broken car you were driving that belongs to you is what it's for. Using it to tow a car that you just bought isn't.

I was told "if the registration isn't current I can't tow it".
And that was with a Grant.

I didn't get a picture of it, but there was an Audi on the way home last night with the NJ license plate "N55 EWW."
What are the odds that this was a totally random plate, vs the odds that an Audi owner is using his plate to insult a BMW engine? Discuss!

Cleaning up the wheel wells first. This car is going to clean up really well. I think I'm just excited to have a rust free car finally. Drivers side is cleaning up the same, it's just taking longer. The drivers side almost never cleans up this well.
Re: The Thread of Randomness. . .
If you can wait a week, get a car shipper to move it. I've had 2 cars shipped, both from farther away. I wouldn't be shocked if you get that for half the price of a tow.

Re: The Thread of Randomness. . .
Why do both of my cars have to fall apart at the same time? Rough idle/barely running condition on the 750iL/M70, and since no good deed goes unpunished my ///M5 tire rotation cost me my UCAs so we're not as stable as we once were, although that's still a drivable car at the moment. BluntTech is getting a parts order tomorrow!

Getting ready to assemble the rear shocks and the bilstein HDs have 3 grooves. Which one should I use to keep stock height?

Re: The Thread of Randomness. . .
When I was 16 or 17 years old, I turned down the opportunity to buy a six speed 8 series for a mere $800 bones.
" What would I ever do with it". I had not owned a BMW yet at that time, but I kick myself every time I think about it.
The fact that Paul was the one who bought it makes me feel al little better I guess...

I totally forgot about the auto correct. Was reminded today.
Re: The Thread of Randomness. . .
I'm having a lot of fun pulling the gas pedal out of the clip on the floor board. Here's goes round 2, I'll get it this time.
Re: The Thread of Randomness. . .
I read on here to push in 2 clips on the bottom of the gas pedal with a flat head. There is a bracket with 2 slots. I tried for a couple minutes, then decided to try to search on here again and a poster wrote to push in the clips from the firewall side. Success!

A beer and a cigarette could go a long way today. Too bad I don't drink or smoke cigarettes anymore.

Even when you know how they don't come out easy. Always seems to be some rust in there along with a bunch of grit.

I sent a 318is from Charlotte to Northern VA. For $267. Freight brokers are the way to go. They fight for a load

When did the emoticons stop working?
And how am I going to integrate my Email notifications with Tapatalk?
No one needs to answer the second one, I know how, but the first one does baffle me.

Sammy Hagar must have be driving an E28 with bad UCAs when he wrote "I Can't Drive 55."
