Well I thought I already had a profile on here, but I can't seem to find it. As little as I post on here (I think i made maybe 5 posts?) figured I'd start a-new and reintroduce.
Mainly haven't gotten on much cause I'm stuck in Iraq for a while now, still have a while to go. I get to lurk enough, but I get so worked up on what to do next to the ride, I have to walk away before I go insane, lol.
Speaking of ride, currently sitting back home waiting for me is an '09 MINI Clubman JCW I've already put a few bucks into. I said I wasn't going to cause I was deploying soon, but the mod force is strong with this one. Few motor mods pushing it to 223whp and I think it was 242wtrq. Coil-overs for a drop that I ended up going so low, I found out the hard-way that an A/C line runs right above the half-shaft, and wore a hole in it. Had no a/c for a while there, lol.
I'ma RWD kinda go, so it's everything in me to not trade-up for something more fun, but I like the rarity of a JCW Clubbie, and think I could really make some ripples&waves with some more interesting mods. Though with Rusty Slammington lying in ruins (God rest his soul), it's everything in me not to send my wife on a 2 hour road trip to fetch a black '88 535is I know for sale for ridiculously cheap. It even runs. Call it a tribute car to Rusty...
Speaking of wife, she has a MINI convertible as well with a few goodies, that's actually how we met, at the MINI dealership. She's a car geek as much as myself.
I have some history with custom cars, shows, had a mini truck years ago that was in a few mags. Started a few cars clubs, President of a few others, the works. I'd like to think I know a thing or two about custom cars, bikes, trucks, and love corresponding to contribute, and learn whenever possible. The military has put quite the crutch on pursuing it further, so that's why I'm here. Chit chat, discuss idea's, etc.
I've already contacted FMU for some fabrication work when I get back to the states. Then I'd like to take the wife's car and mine down to SoCal and visit the scene, get to know some folks, hit some shows, have a good time. I hope I meet some more people here to help make that happen.
Anyways, enough rambling... I can go on and on about things, cars, idea's, so if you got something to talk about, or want to know more about me (y'know cause I'm cool like that, lol), give me a shout! Thanks all.
