Paint is looking great man! I remember the time I got mine painted too, great feeling

Thank you=) I can't even describe the excitement haha

EPIC!!!! The time and dedication is really starting pay off! Loved this build from the start dude, hats off to you :-)

Thank you. That means a lot from you with how in depth your build is

Everything seems to be coming together nicely. Can't wait to see you mounting all the parts. Well done!

Thank you

Came home from a great vacation this past weekend and this picture was texted to me


Everything is sprayed besides the bay. Once they spray that they just need to wet sand and buff, as well as rehanging the doors, hatch, and hood. They also need to install the new rubber trims around the exterior (sun roof, rear window, etc)

This package was also at the door for me


With that I will need to source a 19mm master from a Porsche 944 turbo or an e21.

I am also trying to figure out what brake fluid reservoirs to run and really like these but need to dig more to see what they are from


Other than that my z3 rack should be arriving today as long as I am home when the FedEx truck arrives=) I need to order new banjo bolts for mounting my power steering delete. Does anyone know a good place to get them from?

[Earl]

Haha thanks Eugene

Z3 rack and Massive Booster Delete are enroute. Also found a radiator and ordering a Chase Bays Coolant Overflow once they get the bracket I need in stock.

Nothing new otherwise

Titty smooth

Got sent a teaser of the bay in process yesterday.



It is coming along=) I did notice a few things to change but other than that it is looking great. I like the absence of the fusebox hole the most=P

[Earl]

Yup. Just a simple gloss black=)

[mikey G]

Coming along. Looks great! It was probably discussed but BMW jet black?

[Earl]

I got some teasers this weekend=)











I am beyond excited right now.

I was told that the rockers are also repaired and shaved, the hood is shaved and rear for paint, and the welding work is done in the bay. Should have another good update in a few days

[Falco_e36]

can't wait to see it finished

[Earl]

Stopped by after work to go over what all needs to be shaved and what I am looking for in the bay so they can get it just like I envision it. I also dropped off the other pair of rollers so that they can get me the Breytons back once they do the rear quarter work.

It was awesome seeing the car up on a lift=) The doors are all smoothed out and ready for paint. I couldn't believe they were mine since they were so smooth. My drivers side wasn't bad at all but the passenger side had a series of ripples by the bodyline behind the mirror.

I also peeked at a few of the other cars they are working on and the quality of their work is excellent. I am so happy I went with them for the work.

They will be starting the bay next week so I will hopefully be throwing in some pictures as this progresses.

[Earl]

Currently awaiting a material sample to arrive at the upholstery shop to see if they can repair the bolster wear on my drivers seat pieces. That should be in today or tomorrow.

Other than that my lightened m20 flywheel showed up Saturday and should be going off to the machine shop shortly. I will be having it blasted, resurfaced, and swapping out the starter ring=)


Not bad for $25=D
