The wheels? Yes they're 15x8.

Are these 15's?

When he's not driving his red e30 he's driving a red e30.

Looks so good! So is it pretty much yours now or what?

It's still very much his, and he owns it, but he's only driven it maybe 3 times since we got it running. I do all the work/ maintenance and such though, since I do drive it everyday.

Hmm, looks like I chose the blurriest of all the pictures I took for that last update.


Good.

Well it's up and running, I've done a bunch of things in the past few weeks that are pretty boring and I don't have pics of, so I'll keep going from today.


Put the wheels from Gretta on, unfortunately one of the rear spacers(20mm all around) pretty much welded itself to the hub. I got a pair from a friend, but the hub size is something crazy big, so unfortunately, that won't work. I'll probably just end up ordering a new pair, but here they are in the meantime.










Threw one of Gretta's fixed back Corbeaus in, love these seats.







Picked up on of those $20 suction mount, phone holders. Absolutely love it.







I had a few spare mats from work/ my garage, but unfortunately, none of them were e30 ones/ a close fit. So I ended up cutting a notch out of some Acura ones for the gas pedal(passenger side just sat down) and threw some Maxima rear mats in the back. The mat kept sliding forward and hitting the gas pedal, because it had no hold down. simple fix.










Painted the mirrors black, old coat was pretty worn.







Decided I wanted to spruce up the interior a little bit, and I had some spare wood pieces lying around. I had an idea, got a piece of cardboard, and made a templet for the little section directly below the dash, in front of the coin holder and shifter. Came out alright, though I messed it up a little so I may redo it later on. Happy with it for now, especially using the tools I had on sight...










I'll get a pic of it installed when there's more light.





Lastly for today, I got a little tired of the custom shift boot I had in the car, so I grabbed the stock one that was in Gretta, and put it in.

Hi everyone, my father recently decided he needed a cheap, fun car, and when a friends Henna e30 shell came up for sale he decided he needed an e30 too. While he's into cars, he's not the most hands on person, especially when it comes to getting a bare shell running in a timely manner. So while I was away at college, my good friend Spencer found an engine and started putting it together. This will be a slow resto project, but her are some pictures in the mean time.
