First of all, I want to welcome Solodnikov and Laz who were the first to post their information on my previous post Welcome BMW E36 blog readers!. I hope to get more comments like these in the future as we build a small community of BMW E36 enthusiasts. For those of you who missed it, or just felt lazy of doing it, please go there and fill your information.
Alright, I’m ready to start talking about today’s post. Did anyone of you hear about Alexandar Calder? If you didn’t (like me), then you should know that he’s an artist. This artist draws some of the best paintings I’ve ever seen, but the catch is that he doesn’t draw on paper (like Picasso), or even on walls (like hmmm… me when I was young 🙂 ). He draws on cars (especially BMW cars) and from what I’ve seen, he’s very good at it. In the link I provided above, I saw many cars that he worked on. But I thought the E36 paintings were the best. Anyway, I leave i to you to decide. Check them out.
Wait for more from BMW E36 Blog.
best regards,
Tony Sticks.

When I installed my battery incorrectly and reversed the terminals. My friends truck was dead so I took the battery out of my trunk and used it to start his car since we didn’t have cables. When I put it back in I reversed the terminals. Now, one is bigger than the other so it didn’t fit right at first. So what do I do? I take a hammer (which I happen to have in the trunk) and hammer the terminals on incorrectly. Well there were sparks and then a man walking by tells me there’s smoke coming out of the engine. Well, I fried my alternator and killed the battery. I was able to drive home just on battery power and now I have a new battery and a used ’98 M3 alternator instead of the

Once I tried to impress a group of girls. I tried starting my car, oblivious that I set the Code feature, and the engine just turned over. I tried again and it just turned over. I saw the girls start to laugh, so I tried a third time, not understanding why my baby won’t start, and the alarm goes off! By the time I shut the alarm off and start the car, the girls are already walking away laughing.

I had just rented a car to drive up to NC to get my 328i and i went to the gas station to fill it up and the pump was going kinda slow, so i just used the lil locking thing so it’ll pump w/o me holding it and i walk in the store to buy a lil snack and come back out, hop in the car and drive off. i got a few feet and hear a clunk and see about 50 people stopped at a red light pointing and laughing… i just drove off with the hose still in the gas tank, it disconnected it from the actual gas pump, so i just had the f*ckin hose hanging from my gas tank…
I hope you liked these, lets see your comments. . .
