New guy, E36 Compact

[indiejack]

Hello there, new guy with a not so new compact.

I've begin this project a couple months back after driving this hatch around nearly five years. I have a loooooooong way to go but here's where I'm at so far.

M50 swap, cheap coil overs (these are just on there while I'm planning a bag build) and some E46 stocks for temporary rollers.

Here she is, my Hellrot Hunny



Future Plans include: full wrap (matte or carmine red), air, wheels (I'm going back and forth on ideas there).

Lots of potential. Looking forward to it.

Thanks! Hopefully I can do this oddball compact up right.

Updates: Have new things in the works.

Picking up a set of DS2's on the cheap and ditching the 16" rollers on there currently (still temporary wheels till I drop cash on some nice 3-pieces)
Installing Depo glass headlights w/ angel eyes
Snagged a set of Rocker Covers (black for now but will be working that out)
Black kidney's for the front

Tons of other little things coming along, will post pics once I put the new shoes on and clean her up real good!

A long while passed in posting, updated a few things and dropped the car some more. A few fun recent shots before I get the car on air.

As far as other work planned for the winter, finish upholstery updates, repair a few panels and prep for paint or wrap, finish exhaust and get the m50 tuned a bit.
