    4th time

    First BMW= 1992 325is
    Second BMW= 1997 318is
    Third BMW= 2001 325i
    Fourth BMW= 1987 325is

    Finally, I did myself a favor and bought an E30. She needs a new head which I am sourcing ATM, so haven't gotten to pop her cherry yet...
    Will update when running... much more to come :D

          I know, it looks like a monster truck atm! Sitting next to my lowered E46, the body is still so much lower on the E30 it still appears low despite the fender canyons. I think its not a bad place to start. Thanks for the interest

              The plan right now is to get the M20 running and DD it... I will eventually mod it, but other then purchasing a front bumper strip and Euro Smileys, right now, I like it the way it is. The hood needs to be replaced and someday I might look into plastic bumpers. Also, I agree that some ride height adjustment is eventually in order.

                  Nice and clean! Welcome aboard man, the wheels, styling pieces and everything go very nicely. It'd be awesome once you drop it like it's hot.

                      UPDATE: Got the valves and head at the machine shop, still waiting on the cam to get here!!!

                      In the meantime, I cleaned up the engine bay and painted the valve cover and intake manifold... what do you think?

                          Update! Finally got the cam in the mail and to the machine shop. The lobes are kinda worn but they match the valves so it should be cool. Should have a re-built head by friday... Running by this weekend

                              I really like it, but I have two questions. What rear valance is that? And are those ix skirts?

                              And if you are looking to get plastic bumpers, I will gladly take the rear valance off your hands when you get rid of it.
