    part one - 1984 318i

    So, as I begin my long-term project of an s52 OBDI, 5-lug (w/ coilovers), BBK, interior, and full respray, I decided to put out my "baseline" starting point of the project as it continues. So for your viewing plesure, two photos of where it all begins. (No flames on condition please, its the way I got it from some deported Indonesian)

                                          So S52, 5 lug, respray, full meal deal, huh?


                                          Sweet.


                                          BBK? SSK? WB? Turbo or SC? What wheels?

                                          Interior looks pretty nice, for what we can see. That is my next big ugly thing, I want to build an entire new dash, dye my carpet and have the seats reupholstered, with matching door panels too.

                                          in my spare time....

                                          GL! Get busy!

                                              Yeah, i plan a full DS respray, just can't decide on which variant. Well to be honest I'm still torn between either of the below on the susp. planning too;

                                              5-lug, coilovers, BBK, ds2's

                                              or,

                                              4-lug, coilovers, BBK, ACS Type 1's 16"


                                              what do you guys think?
