    Yeah, idk if he actually was moving bases, but knowing he is military it is a possibility.

    I feel your argument though.

      the dispensary (now referred to as TMC, for troop medical clinic, or "tylenol, motrin, and crutches" if you're being a smartass) is where you see the doc.

          this. they were his personal weapons. probably packed at the bottom of the uhaul somewhere. Saying that he could've done something different doesn't change anything it just makes you an asshole for pointing out the obvious. But we all knew you'd do it anyways.

            If they were his personal weapons stored at an armory they are usually picked up before leaving base?

            And no, I'm just voicing my opinion.

              Why would he store his own guns on base when he has a house?

                From what I remember, the holes fit fine.

                  It is like a precaution/safety regulation on bases? I'm not too sure honestly.

I must say it was rather nice. Granted this was paired up with a zf310, but compared to the stock shifter in my 328 I thought it was short enough without being too difficult to work with. Just my experience though.
                    The Z3 1.9 shifter is not notchy. It's a great mild upgrade.

                    I've been a fan of the E60 lever recently though. Put it in 3 cars now I think... :)

Where does the line between attended and non attended begin? I sure dont know. To some 4 feet away is still attended and to others (sedentary slow walkers, oxygen machine, etc) - 4 feet must seem like a mile.
                      Unattended is when somebody could easily walk away with it. The last thing any gun owner wants to do is use deadly force, but even worse than that have their shit stolen and enable a murder somewhere.

                      Frankly I wouldn't want to leave anything else worth $1k+ and easily stealable out of my sight in public either.

                            Being a convertible in general makes the value of your car go down. Clean coupes definitely fetch the most $$$

                              his is an 87 and kinda ugly.
                              but ya s52 swap cars top at 12k mark. here's why. and the shitty part of cars. shit cars have more value than what the should have and nice cars have less. if you have 15K in your pocket to blow on a car, you are rich enough to afford something nicer than an e30. if you have 4k you get what you get. if you have 9k you may not have more money but you get a nice car. but then there are those flukes.... looks at joey with jelly eyes. but Steven you should be able to sell yours for 12k when it's all done.

                                Also, yours is aa much more desirable color, more desirable wheels, shaved bay which is really cool, if your swap os clean run and BAR'd you will be fine.

                                Did you fix everything from that mishap into the curb yet?
