Your carbon work is impressive. How long have you been working with composites?
Ive done some fiberglass work with my jet ski hull but I havent taken the time to try and make some molds and break out the carbon.

Thanks, I've been dealing with composites as a business for almost 3 years now. I went to school for composites technology in Rhode Island at the International Yacht Restoration School (IYRS).

That's where I received my formal training.

but I, like you, started out fixing my boats when I would inevitably run them into shit.

Everything I like involves composites in some way. I figured it was a skill I should learn.

You can't have too many skills.

I saw that you'd be in Toronto too late I think. If you're around the area again let me know

Yup, you missed me. But I'll be back in August. I'll be sailing over instead of driving that time.

I've never had a red car before. It is my least favorite color, but for some reason I like it on this car.

Car was $2500, came with two sets of wheels (1x winter set/1x summer) and has a brand new exhaust, oil pan and valve cover gaskets.

I just spent some time under it today, the floors are real solid, I'm glad I bought it.

Nice. I am looking at an e46 as my new daily since my fiat was totaled. Only looking to spend a few grand due to it being temporary for a year tops until I settle into new house and such.

the one I found.. $2000 for a 00 323i.. I have no idea what is wrong with it but for that price it can be completely overhauled and still make money off it. So I am going to look at it this weekend hopefully it's still there. Looks good in the photos, interior looks good.
