Olie's E32 with B11 running gear.

I've made a start on the wheels, I was going to go through all the stages of grit, 300-2500, but I'm happy with how they're coming up after a polish. Apologies for the shit photo's, my phone broke so I am using a spare!
















For the centres, my friend suggested anthracite with gold metal flakes, kinda fell in love with the idea so that's the plan for now.

Couple of pictures of under the bonnet, I actually spoke to the man who built this car 20 years ago, he told me if the rocker cover and inlet were black, then this was one of the engines he bought new from Alpina






I know it's filthy, but it's black, that's the important thing haha! Will get it nice and smart under here in time

Cheers for reading!

Got the KW's fitted.

Old and new(ish)





In this photo you can see the new calipers, new pads and new brake lines as well as the KW coilover!




Same again, new calipers, lines and pads up front




BC Camber plates










It's even lower now it's settle a bit haha. Just been out to give it a quick wash, couple of pics can't hurt








I was disappointed with the amount of camber the plates had given me, until I took this shot aha




Will order a pair of 15mm adapters this week and go from there, I think I'm going to need 20 or even 25 for the front so I'm holding off ordering the second pair until I test a 15mm


Ordered a load of little bits of trim off a breaker, I'll post meore details of those when they show up.

Thanks for reading.

I'm in to see where this goes, and I agree with you about the wheels.

[bhdfssds]

I'm up for suggestions though, my wheel knowledge is okay but nothing extraordinary!

[SomeLankyGuy]

Cheers, will keep you updated! Hoping to have it on the road this week or next

[Queef|Chief]

Those wheels look sick! Should look good

[Hotsauce]

Very exciting stuff in here.

[SomeLankyGuy]

Cheers lads

There are quite a few rough bits around the car but I think I'll focus on getting it built for now and worry about bodywork in the summer.

I'm thinking 205/45/17 & 235/40/17 Nankang NS2's for the tyres. I think 215 rears will look a bit skinny on a 7?

Only other ideas I'm batting around at the minute are all red rears, Hella smoked crosshairs up front and a subtle stainless system, nothing boy racer. Maybe a nice 750 interior if something comes up. Then just restoration.

Ow yes!! Love this 7 series! Great potential u have with this car! Treat it well
