[DREWHALL]

That car is going to be nuts. More pics!

[MacBudd541]

Mac... I'm going to want a ride when you're done. You're coming to the Picnic, yeah??

I will be at the picnic no matter what. thats the deadline for this car. if theres some chance i dont get it done then i will just throw the rials on the 323i and cruise that. The mtech2 bumpers are next door at the paint shop. Ive gotta do some more work on the engine bay then it will get pushed next door for paint too.

"the car pulls harder than other M3s i've driven, must be the dinan chip" -guy i bought it from.

HaHa Nice! Looks like it really paid off

[iwantspeed]

i would love to fill in all those and shave the engine bay
and get rid of the cosmoline.

[MacBudd541]

i dropped the car at the painters today to get the engine bay sprayed. its time to get that engine in there!

[MacBudd541]

I had to do something a little wild and different... I'm really feeling the pressure of the picnic deadline now. I've gotta sell some parts to buy some key swap parts. Watch out for part out threads for an 85 323i 4dr euro and an 80 635csi euro. both are complete/running driving cars that are rough. start requesting stuff now! or trade for S52 swap parts needed: oil pan, harness adapter, ews delete chip, motor mounts...

Nice, man. That'll look very one off (that I've seen) and completely bad ass on the Alpine with an S52 stuffed in there ;)

[E30Idea]

I had to....

No, you did'nt have to. Sorry brosef, I luv ya but

That bay looks awfull.

[325ix]

[moving3e]

SICCCK! I cant wait to see this thing finished...any other parts off the e36 your selling?

That is all that is getting painted gold. the rest of the bodywork that is missing is staying white and was only removed to make painting the engine bay easier. I think it turned out great, it was a chance to shave some unwanted brackets not needed for the swap and give the car some character.
