I'm back... 1991 325i Coupe

I can't say I'm glad you got that car instead of me because it was one that I was interested in getting.

I CAN say I'm glad you go that car instead of me because you're giving it the restoration it deserves! :)

Good work !

You're missing a pedal.

Trololololol.

You're missing correct grammar.

An update that's long overdue...
I replaced the dashboard, started recovering the seats, and got another pic from the bodyshop.



Today I rebuilt the odometer (figured the gauges were out anyway)...
The old gears disintegrated in the cliched way I expected them to.

Looking good!

Sadly just found a cracked thigh support on the seats I am working on. Luckily a neighbor has offered to weld it back together for me.

Thigh support on the seat is welded back up and perfect again thanks to my new friend and neighbor. I also scored some new switches, a set of ellipsoids with pigtails, a new glove compartment, 4 minty beauty caps, a Bentley Manual and some other odds and ends...
