Turd Ferguson E28

Pull the rear seats and belts. Unplug speakers and 3rd brake lamp if you have one. It's pretty simple. The carpet pulls up pretty easy too.

Oh shit. I had this same Idea but with a different type of fabric. How do you go about getting that piece out?

[Shawnc16]

Got some shit done today. Water pump, T stat and silicone hoses swapped out and did some oil clean up. Ripped out the rear tan seats and carpet back there to get it ready to go black and never go back.

So I got this idea with the rear deck carpet looking like old shitty sun faded carpet. Suede bitches!

I dig it. It'll probably be a bitch to clean though. More to come tomorrow. I'm waiting on a few things before the coilovers go on.

I'll try to take more pics as I go. Pick up a Bentley manual if you haven't already. Its expensive but has pretty good information in it.

[exilekiller]

Ok. I'm subbing. Hopefully can learn a lot from your build.

I was told this car only had 136k on it when I bought it. I drove it another 1200 home. I'd say it's in pretty damn good shape. The pan will tell me a lot more.

I am praying when that mine looks like this or better when I open her up.

[Shawnc16]

yooo. you made a thread. looking forward to updates.

Thanks fellas! I did, now if it would warm the hell up and stop snowing!

Ive got the cooling system ripped apart right now, some insane amount of oil caked everywhere in the engine bay and the interior needs to be swapped. Looks like it'll be a busy weekend in the garage. I swapped out the valve cover gasket, The oil pan is next. The trans is also leaking so I bought an output shaft seal for that. This bitch is gonna be brand new by the time I get done with it.

Pretty clean in there

Oh Hey Girl


BC's have arrived!

[Shawnc16]

Yesterday I snagged the full interior with a dashboard in pretty solid shape for $200. Badass deal if you ask me. Black leatherette Im being told. Classy.



Pretty much up to date at this point. I swapped out the door panels. The carpet, seats and trim pieces are next. It needs to warm up a bit cuz this working in the cold stuff sucks! At some point I may actually wash it.

[Shawnc16]

Slapped the Style 5's to get a good look at it. Looks like a 4x4 grandma cruiser.

Fancy


Swapped out the front brakes for a power stop kit with powder coated calipers. Race car shit. IE stainless brake lines as well. I stuffed the 15mm spacers on there to check it out. Definitely need to get rid of these monster truck tires.
