Can't believe I've not seen this sooner.

Looks good b, the houndstooth is killer.

I put the factory fresh polished aluminum kidneys on the car. I know, the progress is happening at a memorizing pace.

i love this car! louvre and all

Can't wait to see what you do with the seats=)

Hopefully some type of tan tweed, or something similar.

Subscribed. About 5 years late, but you know.

Bought some seats to recover.



Oil pan is tacked together. Also got new front calipers, a new set of front kidneys (ditching the black).

Wow man. Your e21 is just insane! Where did you get that steering wheel? Looks bad ass!

Looking great! Are you having any difficulty in welding the oil pan together because of the thickness or is it pretty straight foreword?

I don't TIG weld. I'm having a good friend of mine do it for me.

Great shots. The louvers still really set it all off for me=)

[TheNeek]

Swung by NorthWest Auto Salon before putting the car in storage for the rest of the winter, didn't clean it or anything, just a few photos.

[TheNeek]

I see what you've done by keeping the sides straight (very good idea) I don't know if there is room in front of the radiator/behind the front valance, but you could add an oil cooler to add oil capacity as well.

Oh and your car is alright I guess, if your into that sort of thing.

j/k keep up the good work

A cooler is a solid idea.

Thanks for the kind words.
