    Spring Meet 2015

    Spring Meet 2015

    -Date: Sunday 4/19
    -Time: 10:00am
    -Location: Montrose Harbor, Chicago. View image below for exact location as the address won't work but "200 W Montrose Dr, Chicago, IL 60640" will get you close. https://goo.gl/maps/hFICv
    -All cars welcome
    -No a$$-hattery on site please
    -I expect, like the last few times, that we will hang at the first location then take a cruise down LSD

    Note: this is a new location this year for the sake of variety.




    Pics from last year:

    I'm down for whatever. I'm not sure how busy Montrose Harbor is on a cold (assuming) Saturday in March, but we could give it a shot if enough people want to try it. Or cruise up LSD to montrose then back down to that parking lot we always end at.

      Do you think the parking spots along the road would be best at Montrose, or one of the lots? Streetview shows gates than can be closed which if so would prevent us from parking there.

      Find local businesses, view maps and get driving directions in Google Maps.

        I would think the lots right in the marina would be open during the day, I've only seen them closed at night, but then again I don't venture out there that often

            Great!, well thats three then.

            As for the venue, I am concerned we would not be able to nail down an exact spot. I would be worried that early in the season the gates might be closed or if we use the lengthy road-side parking it might be hard to find a small group, no?

            I how about we try here, there are no gates and we can hope there are enough spots for us to take away from other cars. https://goo.gl/maps/iO7g9

                      I might be down depending how much salt and snow is still on the ground since I don't drive the vert in the winter at all since its sitting on summer tires at the moment . Here is a pic of my work in progress .

                        Gorgeous car, I love the wheels.

                        I don't drive my e30 in the snow/salt either so I am very confident that by late March we will be out of that type of weather. I hope to see you there.

                          Genuine BMW E30 windshield sun screen

                          I have a genuine BMW E30 windshield sun screen, new, still in box for someone who needs one, I believe I paid around $75.00 for it a few years ago.

                          I will bring it to the Spring Meet.
                          Send me a PM if interested.

                          I also have a 2nd trunk light, pre-wired and ready to install.
                          I'll also have a few books, "The BMW Enthusiast's Guide" a Bentley Publication and 101 Performance Projects for BMW 3 series 1982-2000, mostly E36 projects

                          Cheers

                            Depending on the weather I will try to make this GTG since the top is drop on my Red Noelle and the hardtop has been put away until next Nov. I have my OEM wind deflector on and ready to drive in drop top weather .
