Yeah, i saw them standing there in the French countryside and just had to stop and take a picture. The deux chevaux was pretty decent, the ds had a lot of stuff missing, spiderwebs all over the interior and some bad rust.

I really to remember updating this thread once in a while :oops:

Car was is in storage for the winter months, when I got it out it wouldn't start, turned out to be the fuel pump. So i literally PULLED it out of storage



So I fixed the pump the next day and went for a drive.

Then it was time for some stuff I collected over the winter.

Original Hartge 16" wheels, including the spare wheel



Freshly painted







Some friends and I got us a nice place to work on cars



So nice to be able to work on your car when it's raining outside!

Then the e30 failed it's yearly inspection, brake lines and rear subframe bushings were the main concerns. (knew it was coming, so I had the parts in stock already, just hadn't found time to install them yet)

Since I also got tired of the rear drum brakes I bought an other rear subframe



Might as well do it right the first time



Fueltank was also a bit rusty, so I cleaned up another one





Offcourse I filled the tank before going to fail the inspection :( So i let the new fuel pump pump it into the winter beater/daily driver/parts hauler Peugeot 106.



New parts!



All new parts, new bushings, copper brake lines, steel brake hoses, and a camber/toe correction set.





No more drum brakes!


Now I passed the inspection :mrgreen:

Time to run AutoX agian, this is a once a year event in the netherlands unfortunately







Best time was a 41,75, a guy I know ran a 41,43 with a M60 swap, so I guess having a light nose helps in a tight course :p

Sorry for the long post, i'll do my best to keep this thread updated a little better from now on!

[Beske]

Little update on this one, I installed some wheelstuds because I think they look better on these wheels.



Pulled the M-tech1 set from storage



Started testfitting



And decided that the car needs some serious rust repair and a paintjob





So let's inspect some more







Took the time to cut up a donor car to get some perfect-fitting sheet metal



Then I got it semi-roadworthy again, just to drive it to the guy who is going to fix al the rust.



More updates when it's rustfree:D

[CorvallisBMW]

Oh wow, lots of rust! Good luck :)

[Beske]

Rust repaired!







New pedal mount:


Damaged front removed:



New OEM front:


And removed the subframe for some reinforcements en some fresh parts.

[CorvallisBMW]

Looks great!

[animal]

WOW - amazing cars you have around!

[serdar255]
