  1. MINIs Take the Beltway

    I just wanted to let everyone know that if you have reserved a t-shirt, you will have your size on Sunday. If you need a size 2xl, I only have two of those left, so please let me know ASAP if you need that size.

     

    I just saw the weather forecast for Sun

  7. Hey all, and Questions...

    Second, due to insurance, I gotta keep the Classic in a locked garage and unfortunately, my place up here doesn't have one. Anyone recommend someplace? (Somewhere on the north side of DC< preferably. Heh.)

     

     

     

    Welcome to DC!

     

    There are a couple of vacant spots in our garage. There are 24 spots and they all belong to condo owners. No daily parking. I can put up a notice in the garage if you are interested. We're between Woodley Park and Adams Morgan. I think the going rate is about $250/month.

     

    One of the empty spaces is next to Cricket. I'd LOVE to have Classic parked there!

  14. Looking for stripe installer

    in Maintenance & Modifications

    I did my own boot stripes and the hardest part was lining them up right. I think that took about an hour and the actual application took around 20 minutes.

     

    I also did side stripes for someone else (Pepper19). I will NEVER do that again. Trying to line up one piece of vinyl that was the length of car while lying on the ground was not fun. If one has the use of a lift it would be much easier! Depending on what type of side stripes you have, yours might be easier.

    I saw a bunch of MINIs this morning!

     

    In the parking garage at the DCUSA shopping complex in Columbia Heights (I would not recommend anyone ever attempt to drive/park there on a Saturday, it was a complete mess):

    - HC/B Clubman - new, it had VA temp tags

    - Silver/B Cooper with DC tags

    - Blue/White Cooper S with Texas tags

    - Cool Blue cabrio (but I know who that was! She lives on my street)

     

    On my way home:

    - Dark Silver/Black S with sport stripes and an Actual Size sticker. Texas tags. Parked on Columbia Rd, just west of 14th. (They were lucky, the car on the other side of the street had a giant tree branch on it!)

  22. Mach V Special of the Month: August 2009

    Great tip thanks! I am in no hurry but suspension/handling is the one area I'd like to do the most with. And lowering the car to look like the awesome photos of Mach V Dan would be sweet. THAT is a nice ride.

     

    I'll be there tomorrow and would be happy to talk to you about the JCW suspension. I will say that it is absolutely worth it! Though, I'm sure you could get something similar for a lot less $$$ if you didn't go with JCW.
