AudiOn19s Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Welcome, I was going to make a comment about the Kidney name...but most here would just think that it was in reference to a human body part. Glad to see some more European rides around here. andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kidneyboy Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Kidneyboy has a double meaning. One; BMW grills are called 'Kidney Grills' and Two; I have had several kidney stones. Hope you never get them, they are extreamly painful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hot_wire Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 http://www.r3vlimited.com/gallery/files/1/1/0/4/7/new029.jpg Which of these cars was yours? The red one, the pickup, or the one that was attacked by a sawzall and piled onto the truck bed? My cousin did a similar thing - He sawed apart his old VW GTI and piled the entire car into the back of a Volvo wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kidneyboy Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 Ill be there, my tires have a little tread left. The red MK3 is/was my moms, the pickup truck is my uncles, and the hunks of metal in the back look very similar to the VW in the picture posted above that one.... HINT HINT.
