Saved some photos since i bought the car, knew a build thread would eventually come. I found a deal on a 96 740il that i couldnt pass up. Ive always wanted one but never thought id afford one. I have alot of ideas/plans for this car but i wanted to get air ride out of the way first things first. I went with air lift struts and accuair switchspeed management. Heres some photos shortly after the purchase 

Temporary quick black to save it from rust

Pieced together the management and then went with universal air struts


Got the front all set up first after i figured out what size adapter i wanted to run.
And now ive found out i didnt fab the rear struts short enough. So ill have the get them out and shorten them about 1.5" and run a spacer. The rear should sit nice. This winter i plan on prepping and painting and work on getting black sport interior. Thinking of black paint again but open to suggestions 😇
