        Nope, I was WAY off...

        I might have to pick another job for DIY. ummmm euroz? but I have to paint the valence.
        Maybe I can get it prepped for paint etc, before then.

        (what else is there... black carpet, rear subframe, M30? No, can't do that in an afternoon... hehe)

                    google says under 70 miles.
                    495 south to exit 7a (rt 5 south)
                    All the way down to California,MD just south of Hollywood, MD (not kidding)

                    Probably an hour ish depending on traffic.

                    My house isn't on google maps, but I can give you directions if you really want to come help.
                    I won't turn you down, and I have all the tools we should need.
                    (no welding or lift)

                    I'm tempted to invite you guys down, but it's not nearly as central as college park.

                        Yun that sounds good to me. Let me know when you guys are going to have another one if I don't see it. I have this bookmarked so I should see it though. FYI I am not a real Texan. We moved here three years ago for my wife's job. I was a military kid growing up so I'm not really from anywhere.

                            nope, but we can have a small diy at my place if anyone wants to show. Nothing formal just working on my own car, and if other people wants to join that be cool.

                                i can bring my 5er, and we can change my crazy spark plugs. although i might want to do that at my house, in case the problem is major.

                                also have all new radiator hoses to put on (upper, lower, and bypass)

                                hey yun, pm me your addy, and whens a good time to show up?
