My dream iX ^_^ turbo DD to come

[barbierij]

nice work so far!

[Bimmer_man]

Thank you I am trying to get her back on the road ASAP but I want it done right. So that takes time.

so what color was the interior originally. Tan or blue

[Bimmer_man]

Originally tan of course Blue was discontinued after 86 I think. You where saying you replaced the interior with this pristine condition and swaped it out. Still looks amazing.

Also are you going to get another e30 man?

I'm also going to try to get heating elements both in the front and rear seats.

[Chruby99]

Weird the carpet was blue when I got it. I am guessing it is not an IX rug. Looks great with the White exterior. Kind of a winterland combo for the wintertime Bimmer. No E30s yet. I just got a job at Shelby American so I have to really bone up on the Mustang Stuff.
Car is really looking great. Cant wait to see the turbo setup.
