    Some may remember me...

    Have posted here in a long time (used to be a frequent poster). I think I see some familiar user names. Still driving the e30...hasn't failed me yet.

    I just completed what has to be my favorite modification so far.

    Something you wont see everyday...


    ...an E30 drop top with a roof rack! Consists of a modified Yak base (for an older jeep) and new Yak parts. Took it for its maiden voyage today and it worked flawlessly.











    Thanks for looking!

      e30's and road bikes, it's like a marriage gone horribly wrong.

        Aaron, car still looks great. Good to see you're still around!

        You put a 24v in it, yes?

              Thanks guys.

              Well...I have everything I need for the 24v still sitting in my parents garage.

              I have since graduated from college, got a job with a great Transportation engineering firm, purchased a house, got engaged....

              Once my finance finishes Pharm school we plan on buying a new car. That will then open up time to play with the e30. This seriously has to be the longest M50 swap evar!!!

                              My favorite vert on r3v...

                              Good to hear from you Aaron, and its nice to see that you still have the car. I'm looking forward to seeing you put the motor in.

                              I changed my username btw, used to be Mtriple. :)
