Not too much has happened since then, we headed up to Bimmerfest East in MD which was a completely awesome show. Got to meet a lot of the guys I know on the BMW sites, and see a lot of the crazy builds that I've been watching come together for years.
Here's my album:

Then a few weeks ago my friend grabbed this awesome rolling shot heading up 28 N with some cars & coffee people.

My main priority right now is just to drive this thing and save up money for a daily driver. At some point, ideally after the purchase of said daily when I can take my time on it, I need to replace my Guibo, and center support bearing. I also need to fix my rattly, ghetto-as-all header to midpipe connection, which I think is probably going to turn into a full custom midpipe by the time its said and done.
I also need to get some stuff done on Lauren's E39. I've got a slow cooling leak and a slow oil leak to address, a slight shimmy in the front end at highway speeds, and a peculiar squeal when you give it too much throttle and the motor is cold. Almost sounds like a belt slipping. Luckily she only drives about 2 miles a day, so I've been able to limp it along by just keeping the fluids topped up. It's definitely getting close to project time though.
