Fun thread!

Great looking car when you where done with it. I noticed Lake Craptree in a shot there and you mentioned Bud? The architect Bud? If so, I did a front wheel bearing at his place, how funny.

Do you Raleigh e30 guys ever meet up?

Congrats on a project well done! Bet it was tough seeing it go... Mines going into storage after two years of complete restoration.

It really is tough. I put alot of work into it and it was so easy on the eyes. Even if I wasnt driving it i could still check it out (sit in it:yawn:) Thanks.

The end.

Well this rescue has come to an end. I am now down to 2 e30 as I have sold my MT2 project. Many lessons learned with this rescue but I will be on the hunt again, once I see another cabrio in need of a rescue. The car will be missed but I know its in good hands now. Man, I already miss those new comfy seats!

In the meantime, Ill spend my efforts on putting my coupe back together.

BTW, I sold it with the euroweaves so Im down a set. :p

Thanks for the compliments!

I actually did some more work on this just yesterday...rear wheel bearing. I took it to buds place and he had all the correct tools for the job...minus a lift but no biggie. I took my camera to the shop to take pix like I usually do with this progress and of course...batteries dead. Oh well. Its not a hard job at all. I heard horror stories about replacing them but it only took me about 2.5 hours. Not too bad for a first time.

Looks like a very worthwhile project. Lot of work but looks good.

You just inspired me to switch my seats from black to tan, That looks great. I wasnt sure how black on tan would look, but now I know. Tan seats seem easier to find.

Beautiful car and great job. You helped inspire me to finish off mine... It's under major surgery right now (5 speed swap) along with all kinds of other bits and pieces. :)

I hope you don't mind me stealing a few ideas from ya!
