Puma's Project Daily - Now with real pictures!

Yeah - previous owner liked the weight of the knob so he kept it. Unfortunately this car has been sold to my ex-gf. I'll probably buy it back in a few years though. It was too short lived...

I thought I recognized your username, haha!

Congrats on finding a clean car, and get on that front bumper!

Thanks again gents. Jake - I'll deffo take you up on that offer if you wanna help out. I have a buddy that is willing to help me redo the seats with new material instead of buying all new seats and benches, but it's not finalized yet.

5 speed, and I believe it is the original paint. It needs some work, but hopefully I can get it looking decent with just my hand-applied polishes and such. I'm in the process of trying to find a replacement seat and bench, but it's a slow going process.

Let me know if I can assist with my buffers/polishes What are you trying to accomplish? Just getting rid of some spider webs and oxidation here and there?

you're just lookin for a replacement seats and a rear bench? I can call up this junkyard by me that might have some.

I'm in love. VERY clean looking exterior.

That exterior is beautiful, is that original paint?

Damn that interior is rough, looks like previous owner made sure they kept the outside perfect, and then taped razorblades to their ass everytime they sat in it. Looks great though, good car to work off of.

6spd?

Since I almost got banned for not posting real pics last time, here's a bunch this time! Please excuse the photography - I'm still learning...

I just picked up this beauty on Monday. 1987 535is (E28) with some M-Tech bits. The interior is a bit rough, but it's nothing I can't fix. Runs like a champ, although I need to get the clutch bled ASAP as it's currently sitting incapacitated in the same spot the pix were taken (made it home, then decided it wanted to become a giant paperweight). Once it's going though, it's gonna be my daily as the MINI is going under the knife for some serious work soon. Plans are to bag it in a year or two, as well as get some 3 piece 5 spokes in stupid wide, low offset sizes to tuck up under the wells.

Anyways, hope you like it! Enjoy!
