Campy, as Green Dragon's response discloses, his Utah hillbilly techie mods made his install of the less-expensive alternative a bit trickier than the UUC install. Choose your poison ......

I'm the new kid on the block, stopping in to say "Hi".

I purchased Dave's "Davintosh" '01 X5 Silver over Black 5 spd, last weekend. He did a great job keeping and rebuilding it. I've known Dave for years as we hang on on the Mye28.com anarchists forum

Thanks Dave.

Unfortunately for you folks, you have not heard the last of me.

Welcome! Post pictures. And no one would blame you if a few E28 ones slip in there too.

Hey, you made it! It was good to hear that you survived the trip back, and that the X5 did well for you. I think you'll like the xoutpost crowd; lots of helpful guys here, among whom Ricky Bobby is one of the best.

I'll still be around, and will help out where I can, but I think these guys will have you more than covered!

[Ricky Bobby]

Dave we are gonna miss you man! Hope alls well with your health and the family my friend!
