                No HDR. Straight off the camera. 10-22mm lens

                It already has a home. I wish I had more M20s available, I know several people are looking for them right now

                  I have a spare alpine II hood for sale if anyone is interested. The clear is horrible on it, but it's definitely usable.

                  $30 bucks and it's yours

                  Let me know ASAP before it goes in the dump

                    My first thought when I saw this (and didn't see who posted it) was "Oh hey, Brad usually would be into this kinda stuff, he's always tearing through a new e30."

                    I appear to be hugely mistaken.

                      drooling over this picture way too often! I even emailed it to my dad as a "nuff said" on why it takes awhile.

                            Bel Red Auto Rebuild. I had them work on my Caddy, they were amazing. They do insurance work and really know their stuff. When you check out the shop almost every vehicle there will be an Aston, Bentley, or Range. Really great communication, fast work, and solid results.
