There is a good possibility… I am so far from making a decision it’s pointless even looking right now. Today I was looking at '01-ish 4x4 Rangers. Yesterday I was looking at 99-00ish VWs and Audis. Anything from Civics to GP’s I’ve been browsing through.

Thanks… My uncle offered to sell me one of his cars, 1984 BMW for 500 bones, and I guess its just needs a little work. Going to check it out, anyway, I feel there is going to be a lot of “checking out” going on for a while… Haha

Well, I think I bought the BMW. It’s a 1984 733i, silver with a blue interior. It has a hole in the exhaust about the size of a dime, and just needs a good cleaning up. My uncle had already dyed the carpets, painted the calipers, bought and installed the new Dist. Cap, wires, and plugs, painted the wheels, and has a Sony head unit. He painted it about two years back, but it’s peeling off the hood, roof, and decklid. It’s just going to be a project for now.

It runs and drives, all power options work (well, they did when he parked it a year ago), lights work, runs and drives, has an engine from a 1988 7-series, just need to get it out of his yard and stick a battery in it pretty much. Still need to find a daily.

I don’t think the long run will happen for this car. After I fix it and get it inspected, even if it lasts a year and a half that will be fine with me.

BTW, did you buy my Jeep? I left you an IM about it.

Yep. It’s going to need one. I’ll probably clean it up at first, then worry about really getting it nice when it’s inspected.

Sweet … If you bring it down to Cal…feel free to bring it over. 2 buffers go faster than one!

There’s not much to see, I can tell you that. It’s just a rough, mid-80’s German tank… You can check it out anytime after I get it to my driveway. And we take the GTO out. 🙂
