My girlfriend decided her christmas present to me would be to get the E34 back on the road. :)

2 days of work and an oil pump later, and... :D

We both did, along with another buddy. She's hardcore... did I mention she did a full M3 swap (motor, auto-> manual, diff, trailing arms, brakes, spindles, etc etc) on her E36? She's helping me install the supercharger on my E36 next week too. :)

My wife is good at crashing cars, if that counts for anything.

She smashes 'em up real good.

Yes it does... it counts in the checkbook as the insurance rates go up....

Nice to see a couple familiar faces in here!

... where is that A-Team picture, anyways... :)

Anything I need to be updated on? BTW, I live in Los Angeles now, moved back here about 4 months ago or so.

Whoa - Deja Vu...

I thought that was a pic of Brandon's, (Formerly Mark's) GF... putting an M3 drivetrain in the E36. Maybe I'm confused... memory is the second thing to go. What's the first? I don't remember...

Nah, that wasn't me. It was TC's girl. Very impressive to say the least.

There aren't a lot of women like that. I suggest you work hard on hanging onto this one, you lucky guy.
