Epic car! Really love all the work you put into it (except the louvres)!

Congrats! A well deserved win for a beautiful car!

Won "Best In Show" at a nostalgia show over the weekend.







Spinning fuses like a real E21 owner.

No i know that, i was just saying because i would prefer to have a steel pan only because if you're going to be that low driving, you'd have a greater chance of the aluminum pan cracking than a steel pan breaking. Thats my only reasoning, my question is if their is a shorter pickup to allow you to shorten the m10 steel pan and reenforce it or if you could use the m42 pick up with the m10 pan.

An M10 pan is nothing like the two piece M42 oil pans.

I believe the m10 was ditched for an m42.

Could you just shorten the m10 steel pan and use another pickup? I would certainly like a steel pan vs' an aluminum pan, granted you have air.

Nice work. Just another car that in no way could legally be driven in Germany...pretty sad.

[Earl]

Either way I am sure itll look spot on=)

[TheNeek]

The louvers set your car off perfectly=) Ever think of fitting a deeper front lip? I love how the car looks now but I wonder how it would look with the front being more even with the sides.

With the oilpan mods above I will be hard pressed to find a front end that won't get crushed. But I am on the hunt for something that is fitting, or I may just make my own, who knows.

Oilpan attempt #2. Just gonna shorten the extra one I have. 1" taken off the sides, now to square it off and try to keep some of the capacity.

This car is amazing, the color, wheels, fitment! Overall quality build friend!
