  1. Enjoyable reading, great story, it sounds like you had a wonderful childhood surrounded by classic BMW's .
  2. Owning an 02 is the fraternity and the school is FAQU.

  4. From the surf to the snow and everything in between, So Cal will always be home.
  5. The screeching could be fixed with some belt dressing, or maybe the water pump is going out. You have to decide if you can handle the issues that come with a 40 y/o car. Use the FAQ and the various books available to do your research and then start wrenching. If you don't have the time or the knowledge, you may need to take it to the shop. I've also been discouraged, just keep on using the FAQ to learn more about your 02. Good luck!
  6. Nice rack! Which tower mounts did you use from Yakima? Thanks.
  7. That looks like it was a beautiful drive, and the car car looks amazing!
  8. I'm watching SNF and a BMW commercial came on with seems to be a grey square light 02 in it, with a young lady driving.
  9. Have you checked the hoses connected to the vapor canister located in the trunk?
  10. Looks great! Can you share some info about her?
  11. I made one out of a plastic coffee can lid, using the old gasket as a template. I then placed it behind the old gasket and used as a shim. It creates a very tight fit and no more leaks. I read that tip on here somewhere.
  12. Thank you for the inspiration, Bob! I refreshed the rear light housings yesterday. It just took me a couple of hours. First, I used a wire brush and then followed up with an all-purpose cleaner with bleach. Second, one coat of black primer. Third, two coats of Rust-Oleum chrome metallic finsh. I already had all the materials. Mike had a great tip using the wine corks to plug up the light bulb sockets. Thanks Mike! I did notice that i had to bend the tabs in just a bit for better contact with the light bulbs. I turned out great with brighter running and brake lights.
  13. I've had work done by Nicholas Medrano @ TNT automotive in Long Beach, on the corner of Termino Ave. and 10th St. I'm happy with his work, but he does get busy.
  14. Thanks for the video, that looks real fun!
