So I have spent the last week or so finishing it up.



The heater control valve was the biggest PITA to do with the intake manifold on but I got it done.



Reundercoated the car as well as fixed the cat and o2s



And now it is set I found a few last little things but now at least it is street able.

Headlights are temporary and the nose panel I got last minute was early model and I don't have kidneys so I chalkboarded my old rusty one...

Current State:





So you may or may not have seen my e28, but I sold it after 8 months of ownership because I just didn't like it. I wanted something more sporty but newer and something I could drive in the winter.

Now some of you may know the car that I bought. It was stanced out on gottis but I am building a more track oriented car that still has a stancy look.

Mod list and more info coming soon but here are the picture of when I bought it. It needs a lot before inspection but its getting there.







I have the car like apart right now I'll post more pictures and info later today.
