It was a balmy negative 4 degree's when Pat decided to arrange the pick up of the infamous BMW. The BMW originally belonged to Ryan, it was his pride and joy in the short lived 3 or 4 months that it ran. He did everything he could to keep it alive but spending more time in the shop then on the road he decided to cut his losses and sell it to us. Thank you Ryan. We had a lawn ornament for a few months then we moved it to the extra garage where it was able to keep the local field mice warm during the winter months. After much nagging and sensible reasoning from me...Pat put the BMW up for sale. How on earth would Pat with his busy schedule be able to find the time to rebuild this car? Why waste time, sell, sell, sell!!! Well Sell it was, Pat found a willing buyer that was young and full of energy. He could put the time and love into this car. Exactly what we all needed.
Ryan of course is in Texas during the sell :)
As soon as Pat got home from work he started working on a trail to the extra garage out back. Let me remind you that we have had a ton of snow this winter and the trail was about 1 1/2 ft deep. Good job Pat!
The engine and all the lovely parts that go along with the BMW
So long, farewell, untell we meet again...hopefully we dont meet again. This car has been a fork in all of our sides. Good luck to the new owner! I would like to add that I give the new owner alot of credit! He has a goal with this car, after talking to him we learned that he wants to turn it into an electric car. He promises to keep us updated and send us pictures of his progress.
Who would have thought that this BMW that sat for years will someday benefit our environment!
