Windy City VintageFest

notes: i hope the e38 guy doesn't have a massive blowout.
the bbs f1-r wheels are pretty ugly, but the 'open' spokes are freakin' cool.
jake's e30 touring's original purple mtech interior was awesome. correct touring rear seats and everything.
john's e34 touring is awesome, love the color of the interior, and a turbo m20. nice to meet you too!
the z8 was cool to see in person, although the interior is so nondescript you wouldnt know its a BMW just looking at it. poor branding.
kirk and his wife were super nice, and his e36 m3 only had 8,000 miles and it showed.

The delphin? Good looking car, but your interior was nearly identical to my late e30 so I was very drawn to it.

I loved your car. Do you have a lukebox installed? I noticed the ports and the sub control right away. Awesome Hartge wheels too. Looked proper!

Yeah I have a lukebox, the ports in the backseat are temporary. Moved out here from Seattle and this was my first meet in the area.

Its still quite a project, did the timing belt/waterpump/thermostat/tensioner/front end of engine all that weekend to make it.

yeah was a great show, biggest collection of e30s and other really cool BMWs that I have seen.

didn't get a chance to say hi to Steve, but his mom was a sweet lady - my wife really liked her bavaria and stopped to talk to her.

e34 m5 and touring, e30 touring, z8, some swapped e30s, fun isetta, and an e28 with turbo LS motor were the highlights for me

Sorry I missed you dude Was a great time

Amazing day and an amazing meet as always. Thanks Trent and it was great to see you over at Luke's the day before.

have a few, will edit them soon and post em here.

Someone needs to upload pictures now, I took like none or I would.

Great event today!!!
Bigger then last year for sure.

My 3 year old daughter "won" something and they announced her name over the PA!!!
Her eyes were huge.

Met Steve from Blunttech and saw his moms car......nice!!!

Deadline to register is Monday, Sept 7th.

*FYI-There will be a new winner of the "Best E30" award this year, as Larry Schettel will have his car on display, but has asked that it not be on the ballot.

I posted up a bunch of pics from the meet over in the photo/media section before seeing this thread. I tried getting as many of the cars as possible (without someone standing in front of them). Link here:
