Facebook Airheads
« on: November 23, 2013, 02:21:37 PM »
Facebook, besides offering individual pages for social networking, provides space for special interest groups, one being the Airheads Beemer Club. It's not a hard n' fast rule that the Facebook group members belong to the parent Club; all Airhead aficionados are welcome. There's even a few of us R65ers on board.

Here's a vintage photo that was posted by Tom Cutter; one he found somewhere else. It's around 1952-54 and at the bottom end of the BMW factory's engine production line.

I had to page back up and look -- yeah, those little slide Bings.  They have ticklers like Amals, too.

Hey Monte!  Glad to see another face on facebook.  I spend too much time over there and not enough over here anymore.  I sent you a friend request.   8-)  And I joined the Airhead group.  MrBuck joined the club officially this year.  Got to get that airhead knowledge anyway we can!

I joined today as well.  I'm still an Airhead at heart (who WILL own an LS one day)!   ;)

How many of y'all are acquainted with the Airlist Digest? A daily emailing relating to all things Airhead. Several of the "high muckety-muck Airhead gurus" offer their wit n' wisdom to questions and concerns. It's cool. Check it out.
