Bimmerfest 2007 - Santa Barbara, CA

[Funkmasta]

Who still has tons of stuff to do to their cars? What you got left?

I just gotta clean the interior and shine the wheels and tires pretty much.

If I could get an S50 in there in 2 days with a 5l-ug on the side, that would be titties. Now if only we had a wheel barrel and a holocaust cloak, that would be something!

We did the dash swap today. I mean, the FUNKMASTA can show up at Bimmerfest with shitty paint, but how embarrassing would it be for me to show up with a cracked dash?

Still have to:
Clean carpet
Reinstall seats
eyeball alignment (cliff notes: took it to incompetent alignment shop this morning for fine tuning, came back effed. Not happy)
Reassemble console
fill tank
drive.

What we did today:
Dash swap
Rebuilt shifter linkage (3rd time in 2 days, freaking frankensteinmobile)
V1 hardwire
stereo reinstall
rear bumper, poorly, nobody look.

Leaving tomorrow morning at 8:30.
Thank god for Redbull.

I have only driven the car 10.8 miles on the swap. I hope it makes it. lol

I still have to wax the car and trailer.

Also have to color sand and polish my newly repainted trunk and fender.

Oh ya, and back to black all the stuff that needs it.

Do it in the Ramada parking lot afterwards.

Blows though I didn't even know that you were actually gonna do that, then to find out that it won't be permitted is a let down.

[MR 325]

Thought I might share this email with you guys... It's from Jon, the organizer of Bimmerfest.

Hi Matt,

Saw a picture of your truck conversion on Bf.c.... Very cool! Unfortunately, I have some new that is not favorable to your cause. After meeting with Earl Warren I now know beyond a doubt that it is not permitted for guests of an event to prepare and distribute food on the showgrounds property. I'm hoping that you can come up with some other fun or interesting way to utilize that truck bed. A open fire just is not in the cards...

Regretfully,
--Jon

WTF am I supposed to do now? I've got $150+ in food here...

[MR 325]

Whatever man!

[Mot]

Hey Mariano and I are not underage, speak for yourself. :p

[MR 325]

We will all be drunk [and underage] at any given SB hotel :)
