The people who follow me now are mostly interested in my current pride and joy: 1987 BMW 325eS. I’ve amassed close to 20,000 followers on Instagram, which is something I never expected or planned for. I’m so grateful for that now, especially since all these years later, I’ve developed something of an online following myself. These were the earliest days of the internet, and, lucky for me, the enthusiasts in these chat rooms would just freely share information. So, between practice, I threw myself into online forums and learned everything I possibly could about automotive repair. Plus, leave it to my dad to throw a profound life lesson into the mix: Here was, in theory, ‘the car of my dreams’ … right in front of me, I just needed to put in some hard work to bring it to life. You can imagine 17-year-old me was looking at it like, ‘Oh, this is not what I signed up for.’ I mean, the car was my age.īut that’s really how it all started for me … this passion for fixing up old cars. He points to a 1986 325e BMW, a total bucket, and hands me the keys. So, one day he goes, ‘Son, we’re going to get your BMW now.’īut instead of heading to the dealership, we pull up to this guy’s house.
