                    Just friends. It seems like every one of my friends is a "photographer"

                      Works out, you got some nice looking shots of your lotus. And inevitably some nice looking shots of the e30 that we'll all be drooling over.

                          Newman, this is epic.

                          Awesome fabrication work too.

                              Your description of getting trapped made me claustrophobic. Eff that.

                              Car's coming together nicely now. Do you feel you're over the hump now that wiring is complete?

                                I just remember asking you about your wheels and you told me they were 700 a pop.
                                What do you mean about the guy who took it?
                                Someone stole it?
