69 BMW Euro Trash

It scares me that this car might actually be on the road. I get the rat look is still surprisingly cool but at least think about yours and others safety.

safety, thats not fun.

but seriously, if this is ever on the road it wont ever get going fast enough to hurt anyone
plus who said floors were needed to be safe

short running video because it is all i have done lately
in the video it is at about 1/2 choke but it was running a bit off, the gas it about 6 months old, so thats probably the issue, also it felt a bit lean

after about 30 min of running i did get it almost fully off choke, but it still wasn't perfect

either the fan is too good or the thermostat is stuck because it didnt get over 165 even after 30 min at idle
lastly sorry about the sound quality, i didnt realize that the iphone had such a crap mic

the video is weird, just click on it and it will play, no clue why i didnt use youtube

I would honestly probably save those calipers for another car...

HAHAHA all these bimmer fan boys are so rattled

Okay the car is far from perfect, but you are all missing the point.
There are plenty of showroom quality cars on this site, so for me its refreshing to see something a little less douchy. If he's passionate about the car then who are you to judge.

Shame on all you, stop ****** and go waste more of your money on 3 piece wheels.

I don't think anyone would care if its showroom quality or not. it's more so that everyone is "rattled" cause instead of fixing a car, it is getting destroyed, or sometimes half fixed but more so its a very bad patch. some half assed pride of ownership would save the car. end rant

whats gonna happen is this build thread will stop, and this car will end up in the junk yard...
Dont get me wrong i understand it needs alot of repair. But given the time and a little bit of love, this car could have been saved...

first 4 pics had me excited... around Page 3 i felt a little part of me die. I just love a good save. not a horrible kill.

ive always said if i decide to scrap it, im just gonna pull the usable parts and put it in the woods on my land, that way someone will find something cool in the future

not sure about everybody else but I'm really liking where your going with this, i especially like the not finished style that your going for... it compliments the racer effect

If i told the bimmer community that there is a licence plate as a patch panel on my floor they would cry too... but keep on keepin on brotha

[montgomery]

This car was 100 times worse before this kid got it. Make real floor boards and work on the rust more. Anything can be saved.

this thing looks like crap....you earn my respect for the vdub not that bimmer
