I left on Friday around 11:30am, normally I can make it to Philly in around 5-6 hours. At 7:30pm I rolled into Adam’s apartment… it was not a pleasent drive. ![http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0064.jpg](http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0064.jpg) Blind. Shitty road conditions, and I need to buy a truck. ![http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0069.jpg](http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0069.jpg) At the Sunoco in Marathon I always stop at. With Adam’s camaro. ![http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0084.jpg](http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0084.jpg) New benz A class, a lot smaller than they looked in the promo photos. 70 degrees and sunny! ![http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0090.jpg](http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0090.jpg) LOVED the license plate. ![http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0093.jpg](http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0093.jpg) ![http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0099.jpg](http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0099.jpg) ![http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0103.jpg](http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day1/DSCF0103.jpg) Jon and I dragging the M5 up, and on my way.

> [@TRP951](#): > > your not going to try to wedge that motor in the 3 series are you? Nope, it’s not going in my e30, though it’s tempting. Current plans include a GT35R .82, not gonna talk about the chassis just yet. 😉 More pics: A very small portion of the parts I have (the 5 is still FULL of parts). Thanks to brent\_strong, tnick24, theblue and Max for coming over and helping me unload it from the trailer. ---

Been working on the throwing star wheels (lightweight, rare) no where near done yet but so far I’ve got them cleaned, masked, resprayed, recleared, next up is polishing and maybe a lathe for the two with the mild curb rash. ![http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day4/DSCF0096.jpg](http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day4/DSCF0096.jpg) When I picked them up. ![http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day4/DSCF0278.jpg](http://www.dmoffitt.net/mpd47/M5/Day4/DSCF0278.jpg) Not finished, but current progress. They ought to turn out fairly nice despite a small bit of rash. Gonna polish them Friday night. ---
