42, Married, 3 children, 1 God (and it's not BMW). Director of Engineering and Design for a smaller division of a national Lighting manufacturer.

Always dreamed of restoring my own car. Save some major cash, have it done the way I want it, see how good of job I can do, and have fun doing it all.

So I finally did it

, and so far so good. I have a '98 Dakar Coupe that was in a roll-over accident. I have all the part replacments complete, and 95% of the bodywork. Now I'm heavy into paint preping.

Should have it done in a month or so. I'll post pics of the entire job then, if all goes well..

So far this site has been extremely helpful in many ways. Thanks!
