dang, for some reason I thought they were some oem wheel. I'd totally be interested but at this time, I have more to worry about on my e28, than the wheels. lol

Gotta get it running, painted, inspected, the whole shabang, still in early project stage.

Haha no worries man. I totally understand that. I am most likely gonna keep the wheels anyway. I like them and just had them up for a feeler.

came across this car on ig and have been obsessed

Thanks man!


Small update.

Started to work out some rust that I had recently noticed. Underneath the rain gutter on the passenger side I noticed what looked like really heavy rust. Got really worried but after wiping it out and cleaning it, it appeared to be only minor and just some surface rust. I got off what I could of the rust from the surface since getting in there is pretty difficult with sandpaper and then hit it with some primer so it wouldnt do that again.












Also the trunk seal is a pretty common failure im coming to see and its definitely been one on this car. The driver side by the taillight is rusted through unfortunately. At least its a small spot and I figured id sand that as well (or at least try to) and throw some primer on it as well. That should hopefully prevent it from spreading.






On top of that, My driver side fender has been messed up since i tried to roll it with no heat gun and washing it at work the other day ripped more paint off. So I said fuck it, Sanded it, and got a color at my other job that was close enough for what we had in rattle cans. Its not perfect thats for sure and around the edges it chipped so the primer is showing in tiny spots but it is better than before and no more surface rust on that shit either.









Next on the body list is getting the rear quarter done as I always say. Just need to spend a month or two saving and have it done. Maybe paint sometime in the future. Maybe.

dont give it that much credit.



They are RH toplines. There are two sets ive seen in the 5x120 for sale forum but they are around 1000 dolllars, are overseas, and need refinishing. Mine are actually up for a feeler at the moment if you were interested.

Man that steering wheel is the bees knees.

Hey Brandon, i've been looking everywhere, but what are your wheels called? The only ones similar to them I found are the 3 piece ones off a Benz

Ones I found:

went out and took some pics from my new phone. Going from a galaxy s1 to an s3 and then to an iphone 6 makes you realize how shitty all your old pics really were. Also make taking them a lot more fun. Anyway, not a huge update really. Fixed an upper radiator hose leak, got the new hose on, got my new fuel pumps in since those were taking a shit. Its nice to be able to actually hear both now, and also took a close up of the bad quarter panel. Hopefully that will be next. Need to start saving to get that fixed as well as other small rust spots (one in particular I just found) and may just fix the minor ones myself. The new one appears to be just surface rust so not too worried.


Its really a bummer to see that there is so much filler on both sides of the car on both rear quarters. The passenger side thankfully wasnt backed into like the driver so its fine for the most part. The spot for the spare i recently ssaw was bent up as well like they hit a rock in the wreck or some shit. I hit that back. Crazy how metal has a memory cause it went almost right back. Sanded and sprayed the paint that chipped inside while hitting it back and that should be good now. But this is a close up of the bad quarter that probably no one sees in pics.

Only if the benz is going

Oh it'll be there. Don't you worry.

This just gets better every time I look at this thread. Makes me want an E28 even more!
