Because you are usually meeting me?

I was more thinking about a K31 - but you make a valid point.

If anyone is looking for a PCR, there was one at Fort Liberty in Avon this afternoon. It felt nice, I was tempted. But I just paid both Fed and State taxes, so my fun money is pretty light right now.

I don't need a PCR, I don't need a PCR..

This afternoon, my youngest and I took a look at a potential track car candidate. He currently drives an 88 E30 with an M50 swap on track days and has been wanting to build a new, more track focused car. This is what we looked at. It's a 98 BMW 328i with a bad slushbox transmission. We just happen to have a good manual transmission, drives haft, lsd and pedal box with a clutch pedal.

It's remarkably solid given that it's been sitting for a long time. The price is in his budget, too. That is, it's free. I'm thinking that we'll drag it home some time this spring and work on bringing it back to life. It should be fun.

Oh WOW! This looks like a most excellent project car!

Is it bad to want a new piece because you have grips you know will look ace on it? Oof, what if there are TWO of them for sale in the same frickin' thread?

Yeesh, I know better than to ask this crowd of enablers. I should delete this post before I hit the Post button.

Crappit, I hit the Post reply button. I'm a dope!

I knew what you were thinking. Time I’ll never get back.

Sounds like an opportunity for a matched set

I still have the one I got from you. It will not leave the farm.

That'll be really cool.

I do have a CZ question..

My aluminum grips come loose on my Shadow sometimes. I plan on changing to a different set of aluminum grips. What do you all use on screws? O-rings, blue or purple loctite?

 

[bcannon]

O-rings have worked best for me

 

[mcapo]

Same - O rings.

Back in the day - clear nail polish might have been used from time to time.

 

[Bennettjh]

I like the o-ring idea (thats what I use on 1911's). Wanted to make sure it was accepted on CZ's.

Only have trouble on one grip, though. Thanks for help.

Happy Monday gents

Happy Monday .
No work today, so I’m headed to work. Side job money is no longer fun fund money. So I’m not as excited but, setting up a security system for a nice old lady is way better than working in Chicago.

 

[rkwhyte2]

Morning all

 

[88E30M50]

Morning folks! ️

 

[wtburnette]

Happy Monday...

Took the day off as I felt I needed a long weekend. Meeting up with the Wizard later for some GPT...

 

[Trigger Time]

Good morning. Power and water back on.

Good morning. Power and water back on.

Spent the evening on GB since you wouldn't sell me a P299. No luck.

Negative rep coming your way.
