I posted pics of the rane/pg cross over I got that was originally built for the Ti BMW show car on the old school car audio page on FB. Someone there asked if I had any pics of the car/system and I did not but would like to see it all again if anyone else has a link or pics?

I would have to dig up some old picutre books but I might have a couple from the finals in '97 in Greenville. I think it was the Beemer that was there that year. I haven't looked at those pics in years so I could be wrong.

Oops, I just realized that you wanted ti, this one isn't ti, but it is a BMW 325 pg show car (magazine car) from the 90s.

I think Jerry DesMazes built the show cars back then.

Sorry to bring this back, I saw this car on Craigslist and I thought someone was looking for it, but it was a BMW not this. Then I figured most would find it interesting. Gembala Porsche.

man that is a sweet car and looking back at the open hood reminds me of my first day installing in Scottsdale. I had been installing in Indiana, farm trucks and tractors were more common then porshes but I was anxious to learn and loved working on them.

Just wanted to let you guys know Jerry DesMazes has been posting lately on the PG classifieds page on FB. He has posted some pics of old installs and bits.
I tried to tag Scott but think he changed his FB name?
