E30 Picnic - All Caravans Thread - Want to know the plan? Look here.

[MR 325]

I loaned my car to my buddy Armen for a couple weeks and just got it back today.

That said, I still have a LOT of work to do. I changed the driveshaft tonight because my u-joints were making noise but the one I put in seems to be off balance. Luckily I have ANOTHER one here that I will toss in tomorrow. I also have a new muffler I wanted to put on but I just tracked it and it's not showing up until Thursday so I doubt that's happening. Other than that, I have a lot of cleaning to do, the car and trailer.

Oh ya, I also am going to give almost everything on the car a once over and pack myself an extra parts care package.

If A) You manage it get it started, and B) you manage to get it in gear =)

How is everybody doing on their cars that need work? Me? Ugh, I should get busy trying to make my stereo sound less like shit, and at least closer to decent. I really don't have time to bother with redoing my shitty work though, perhaps I'll at least be able to fiddle with the filters to get some real sound.

I also should get new tires, but I'm a broke ass, so I think I'll be putting that off. :P

I don't have a rear bumper or valance on mine at the moment, still adjusting the brackets so everything fits perfectly.

My car is also right now sitting in the paint booth getting all the finishing touches put on it.

You guys should put "XXX or Bust" on your windows.

I was actually planning on doing something like that. And Clay, my lip and valence are getting blue-taped for the drive at least to Portland over the mountains. Glad I'm not the only one.

LOL. Dont tempt me, I probably would! I wrote I <3 MY E30 along the whole rear quarter panel of my car at bfest, I could do something obnoxious again.

She's gonna get a some claybarring, a "nourishing" polish, and some more wax. Detailing inside and out... THEN BLUE TAPE ROAD TRIP PREPARATORY EXTRAVAGANZA!!

Got fresh front tires about 3 weeks ago for this trip, too.

Matt, I think we can do some car washing and other lil stuff when you get here if you wanna save time in the morning on Thursday and just get here sooner.

I think I should put my engine in so I can make this. Anyone wanna help? :)

Luke, I think we're just gonna wing it. Pretty much when us Cali kids wake up and get some food, and feel like driving some more, it definitely won't be late though.
