I remember seeing this car at that Euro meet in berkley last year with Kevin and Harry. shit is way cool man.

Welcome back ! !

i fell in love with it there

The city. Sunset district.

oh koool. me and kevin live in the richmond. and welcome back asher

need a roommate?

did you ever go to any of the norcal roadster/ garagestar meets in vacaville? some of the slamburlgars and friends live in sac. most of them are miata guys


we dont need a roomate now. me and harry split a studio filled with bikes and car parts haha. some of the people on this forum can vouch its a "comfy" place haha. actually me and harry have loosely talked about moving over the summer and trying to find a bigger place with a garage smile.gif also aphrodesiac and slipperywhenwet live in the city. over the summer we need to meet up. i am always booked during the school year since i work full time as a tech at VW and i go to an intense school program. Harry works and goes to school full time too so he is a busy guy as well. we need to bbq and chill once school is out!

havent been to any of the meets...I shall go to the one in April though.

on another note...I know the feeling of having a jam packed schedule...part time student and work full time as a tech at a shop at Infineon.

This!

gonna try to get out this week after work on wed....itll be me in my car and another buddy of mine in his 2-door Volvo 240.

I fucking love your car.

Never thought a volvo could look this good, Props

Yeah I'm a full time student and work part time downtown in the Financial District. Maybe we'll see you around! I sure hope to, Asher!

Fuuuu. I'm drunk.

That is fuckin sick. My buddy just sold his 740 wagon. That thing was fun, I can only imagine the trouble you could get in with this.... Wercome
