    Convertible Convergence - A Photo Story

    I had Vintage European replace my timing belt, water pump, a coolant hose refresh kit and throw on some M3 springs, E90 drophats and some Bilstein sports. And while Steven was getting his hands dirty, I played with my camera a bit.

    Some before photos:










    And after installation of the old man gangster stance:






    Steven did a great job with the car. Everything was replaced, with no hiccups or problems. He did it in exactly the time he said he would. And, he even cleaned up my engine bay.

    But, enough of that guy. :D The car handles great! It still rides nice and comfortable and look much better now that it doesn't look like its ready to go out 4x4ing.

    Thanks again Steven! And I hope you all enjoyed the photos. :woowoo:

          Thanks Austin. It'll probably stay this way for awhile. At least until I get the new wheels put on. Then, it's all catch up on all the old parts that needs attention. The car did a lot of sitting without being used.

          Thank you, and go for it! There's no stopping once you get the itch. Especially after you've driven one with the top down on a sunny day. Then you might well get the rainbow triangle tattooed on your ass, because you wont care how gay you look.

                  Price check on Vagiclean, aisle five. I repeat: price check on Vagiclean, aisle five. That's Vagiclean. We've got a customer down here with a full-on fallopian fungus. I'm baking a loaf of bread and I think it's sourdough.

                  So when are we going to have a convertible photo shoot? They are the ultimate tanning machine after all...

                    I have been thinking about this lately.... so many PNWers are getting convertibles now. I think we could easily rustle up 6 or 7 for a cool shoot

                      I could bring my 4x4 for a shoot. Im regretting throwing the stock springs back in now. (The reason i did is the speedbumps where eating my exhaust.)

                          Well let's get some better exhaust that fits up tighter to the floor :) then its time for that drop

                            I have heard nothing but great things about Vintage European, I'm looking forward to get some work done there.

                              Looks great! I'm with you on the old man stance :) and I will steal that phrase to describe my own car
