  • I know this is an old video but I want to say thank you for not time lapsing everything, I don’t know much about cars, and I want to eventually build an e30 myself

  • Instantly jealous of the fog lamps.. I was too cheap to splurge for the real deal.. LOL.. I bought some cheap plastic ones for mine.. but I know I will eventually get the glass ones

    @deanirwin3645@deanirwin36454 ай бұрын
    • I tried to live with them but I couldn't, these ones popped up locally for a good price so I bit the bullet and am glad I didn't have to buy them full retail. before I found those though I had ordered glass lenses from an eBay seller. I put those on the plastic ones and they came out really nice actually, I will most likely put those on my other E30.

  • Awesome stuff. I had the pleasure of driving a very rare red-orange M3 when it was first delivered in the Seattle area in 1989. See one on a British Racing Green is wonderful, excited to see what wheels you will put on. BBS deeper dish than stock with Gold Center? Can't wait to see the full build. Love the lights, but I also dig the European Yellow front Hig beam lights as another set of Foglights.

  • We rarely come across videos like this, really cool, and the bolts on the front fenders, are they zinc plated? Subscribed too!

    @dillanmistry@dillanmistry4 ай бұрын
  • Looks really cool! One thing regarding the Fasteners- they look great and OEM factory being yellow zinc plated! But in terms of long term resistance IMO they don't last that long! Won't you consider using it the new Zinc flaked bolts in areas like the underneath of the car that is more suitable to corrosion? Just asking as I'm restoring my e30 soon and want it to last as long as possible

    @cp5472@cp54725 ай бұрын
    • Good point, I actually didn't put much thought into it, I just had a ton of yellow zinc hardware on hand and thought it looked good. The worst weather this car will probably see is light rain so I didn't have a huge concern for corrosion like I do my other cars that see lots of rain and occasional salt. I have a bag of zinc flake ones I could swap in though so I might do that at least in the wheel wells

  • Hi, did this British Racing Green exist on the E30 ? I think they offered it on the latest cab versions... or was it a metallic one ? I am a fan of original stock definition... Very very nice bolt new project ! I although regret your choice of lights on the back... Don't take me wrong but they look 'bad taste tuning' to me... I still have an E30 320i Cab from 1992 that I bought in 1995, Mauritius blue with beige leather. Keep the good work going! Regards from Brussels

    • Since it's a bare shell on maxed out jack stands so I could paint it, it's very light and unsteady. I don't want to put a lot of force on it and risk tipping the stands over. Once I can roll it and have it on the lift I'll go around a torque everything and mark it.
