Project Chicago arrived! (Patreon)

Alpina landed in Frankfurt early on Tuesday morning!

Lifts and equipment from Bendpak landed the day prior so I haven't even had a chance to look over this glorious turd. Just snapped these 3 pics and parked it. The battery is kaput and the mandatory check engine light is there, I already love it. Not sure when the video will come, but I'll keep you posted.

Yesterday and today all day I was installing lifts with Luuk from the Netherlands. Liftmotive is his company and he's the official Bendpak importer for Europe. He's been a tremendous help and we knocked out everything pretty quickly. Would've taken me days if it weren't for him. 

The 2-post is yet to come (I hope, we still didn't get a response from BendPak), but the rest is up & running. The 4-post lift is awesome and fantastic quality all around. I quite like my old Twin Busch 4-post, but BendPak is simply put, a class above. It's a bit narrower than the old one, but the tracks are wider and it lifts a lot higher than Twin Busch. I also got air operated axle jack that rolls in between the tracks.
The scissor lift is awesome too. Very clean when installed, doesn't take up much space and will be great for small quick jobs.

The tire changer and wheel balancer are brilliant, I used them for the first time today and it feels so good knowing I don't have to deal with tire shops anymore. They are great quality and will be easy to work with.

In other news, on Friday, I'll be in Munich visiting BMW Group Classic all day. Not sure what will the agenda look like, but I'll meet Benny again and supposedly the boss of Group Classic and see some of theirs incredible machines so I'm pretty excited about it! I'll bring my camera just in case, but doubt I'll be allowed to film.

Anyway, that's it for now. Part 5 of project Marbais is coming in a couple of hours, the video is uploading now.

As always, thank you for being here!
