Congrats on the sale.

Thanks Mr. Gimp. Nice doing business with you.

Car will soon make appearances at the Boston BMW CCA's events up at the former Ft. Devens airstrip --- a fantastic venue for those who haven't been there.

Good thing you deleted the thread with all those problems you had.
Amazing what some of those oil additives will do. For a short time anyway.
And the body shop did a great job!

LOL! Thanks a lot!

Funny you say all that. Not posted in this thread is that the car was sold at a reduced price because it developed a rod knock about two weeks before it was sold. I think it was mad that I had decided to sell it.

Either way it's in great hands now and it's going to get a new, bigger, stronger heart! I can't wait to see what it becomes.

I hope cpatstone does some ice racing. I would love to do that.

I think they've only done that twice in the last three years? this year doesn't look good either. too much snow = insulation on ice = thin ice, and presumably a lot of plowing. Does sound fun though.

As Gimp said, the motor does knock a bit. My ultimate goal is to swap in an S52, so as long as the car made it back to MA (it did), I was content. Would be good to drive it for maybe a season before upgrading the powerplant, so with that in mind, I started a new thread over here:

any help is appreciated. Cheers!
