    Introduction

    Hi everyone.
    I have been lurking on here, posting once in a while asking questions...I never really got to introduce myself so I figured today, Thanksgiving day, would be a good opportunity since I'm home, relaxed, and not stressing about other things I should be doing with work/house/bikes....I'm relaxed.

    I got an E30 this summer, in August. This car is a little project for me to use as my primary everyday car and sell my Volvo V70 which I'm really tired of. Nice car, but not what I was expecting, having owned 2 Volvos previously...disappointed, I am. So I picked up this E30 (which I'm sure some of you have seen pics of..I have a thread on here that I should actually update soon) for $450...lady owned...nice straight up car...no computers, no EET degree needed to jump it...user friendly I call it. Fun as HELL to drive, even as an auto-MaJiK, but that may eventualy change.

    My car background is mainly Volvo and VW. I am also a 'retired' bicycle racer from road and cyclocross, and always have a bike project going on. My profession is construction project management...thinking of getting an Architectural license (currently researching). I've also moved around a bit: born overseas in Europe, then settled in PA, MA, and now NY about 1 hour away from NYC.

    So...without further rambling..

    Hi. :)

                    no, unfortunately I didn't. I did get about 20 sms's from the Volvo contingent there with messages like: "Reuben...onion rings...Guiness..." that made me pretty jealous!! I love the food at that place!
                    I was planning on working for that Saturday and Sunday on one of our 'more sensitive' buildings. It ended up raining, but I got sick on Thurday...so I spent the weekend between bed and the couch.

                    I'd like to organize another one soon, but I need to finish what I have going in the BMW...at this point, there's no point in re-installing the interior only to be ripped out again when it goes for paint, new windshield, and headliner.


                    ...you end up going?
