Parts Express Request:

I'm looking for a ride for my part from Greenville, TX north to Lincoln or Omaha. It is nicely boxed but at 81 inches long it may need a ride on the roof rack. This is a used exhaust 57 pounds.

Greenville is 45 minutes northeast of Dallas. I'm willing to pay gas, tolls and beer to reasonable amount if anyone can help. Please PM.

Troy is coming down I35, then 35W to me... unsure if he will take same route home, but drop him a line. It will be tough as he will have fresh paint.



Worst case, send it Greyhound.

The event schedule does not include a raffle,
at this point,
but Saturday night's activity will require some booty.

Anyone need E32 axles? These are from a 750iL I owned. Planned to toss them in a raffle. Price is free, or trade for something nifty, such as out of state plates. :cool:

Okay, raffle or not... I will be bringing lots of odds and ends that anyone can have, FREE. Hit me up via PM to reserve or first come first serve. As trade fodder, I will accept anything 745i (E23) related, high fives, out of state license plates, cold Miller Lite(s), range brass, anything neat auto related, or simply a 'thanks, I needed this!'. :)

E32 front sway bar end links
E32 V12 rear axles
B34 Bosch reman starter
B34 Bosch reman alternator, 80A
ECE headlight buckets
Black rear speaker grilles, E23 fit for sure, potentially E24/8 :?
Some Craftsman 1/4" drive long reach allen bits with ball ends
Many expired Texas license plates for wall art
B34 thermostat housing
B35 valves, I and E
and lastly, ZF 3HP/4HP troubleshooting help. :)

Other things are bound to turn up, so ask away.

Just found out about TexFest... way too late for me to change plans and attend. I sure enjoyed the event several years ago in the 2002, though. Wish I could make it, The Sisters are a helluva lot of fun!

Y'all enjoy the great weather and keep the rubber side down.
