    Nice little Sunday Actually...

    Didn't make it to Bed, Bath & Beyond or Home Depot but did go for a nice ride along the coast. Man, I love where I live.



    Here's me having some fun with an M coupe. Guess who won??



    Then I decided that the engine bay finally needed to be refreshed. Here's some before...






    And after...






    It's a miracle what 45 minutes of your time can do!

    I know it's not too exciting to many of you who have super clean cars but I honestly just love bringing cars back to life. This is my first E30 and I'm loving it more and more everyday. It's just a great all around car. I just know other aficionados might appreciate hard work as much as I do.

    Nice clean up. I wish I lived closer to the coast. My wife and I drove down to the gulf coast last weekend for our anniversary in her Z3 and we just road up and down the coast for 2 days with the top down. Man that was a blast.

            I sprayed it first with an entire can of gunk then I let it sit for about 15 min. Then I wiped it with a rag in the overly greasy spots, which was pretty much the entire engine bay, and used my pressure washer which I hooked up to a hot water spout. Worked wonders!

                  I forgot to add... I also sprayed the entire bay with Armor All. I do this on all my cars. Makes it look purdy.

                    I was shooting a music video in Downtown LA all day. After going to pick up the artists girlfriend from LAX. Car got locked in the parking garage and I didnt bring a jacket and it was fucking freezing as the sun was going down. Great day. Oh and the artist never showed up.
