I got a few distractions other than the X5 for sure!

Fixing up old Ford 1700 Tractor. Almost done now



And I couldn't resist this 1970 GMC dump truck.



And the big Deere tractor redoing the sound system in it.



And the M5. R.I.P.



Oh, and I almost forgot these 2:

Living here in Hot-as-He,ll Texas, you kinda pressed your luck on ignition coils.
Absolutely no way would I chance that. Being in Aviation, we don’t run till failure.
It’s called preventative maintenance.never seen an airplane on a tow truck....

I have and it's no fun. I carried the personal affects of the pilots' home after this one. No amount of maintenance will fix poor airmanship.

In other news, I've added to my E39 obession...

It's an IBEX. I had not ever heard of them before I saw it. I bought it on a whim at a closeout place. It's my 1st CF frame and I am completely infatuated. I replaced a steel Gary Fisher that was 20yrs old and probably twice as heavy.

I still roll on my college wheels, a 1974 Concord Freedom Deluxe. Old school 10 speed that was pretty elite in its day. I've often wondered if it's still on file in Ohio at the Boardman Police Dept.
