    Project Becomes Daily...

    I sold my daily about 2 weeks ago and the E30 has gracefully filled the position in with no hesitations.

    I've always been in love with the body style of the E30 and now that I've been driving it non-stop I fall in love with it each time I turn that key all over again.

    My name is Hector and I'm from Miami, Florida and I drive a 1986 325ES

    I'd love to start messing with the car, wheels, suspension, E36 swap, bolt ons... but at the same time I don't want change a single thing about it.

    IDK, we'll see what happens I suppose.









    I don't know what's going on...

      Nice pictures, and I like your rims.

        Thanks, they're some sort of TSW wheel.

        I had never seen them before, but I think they work with the car, nothing trendy or done a million times.

        At least not that I know of...

              What are "diving boards?"

              I think something to do with the bumpers?

              Sorry, this is all new to me, I'm a prior-VW guy.

                diving boards are the metal bumpers which came pre 88 (i think) the ones after came with plastic bumpers.

                  Those big metal bumpers you could literally dive off of. Is that a camera from the 80's? Keeping it all retro I like it.

                              Thanks!

                              If all goes well by the end of the week I'll have the two front and rear bench of these in my possession. Which is good because my two front seats are torn to shreds.



                              I also have this sitting in storage awaiting my interior re-do.


                              It should slowly start coming together nicely.
                              ;)
