    Now I know I'm Crazy! Laguna Vert and Fire Orange M3 Projects

    I haven't formally announced My first project and or posted any build threads of it yet. Mostly due to me being in Afghanistan all the time. I am fully resto modding my vert. When I finally post it will be titled the R3Vlimited community restoration. I am having this car built with the sole help of all of you and the vendors on this site. A lot of you have already sold me plenty of parts, so those of you who have chime in.

    Not even having completed this project which is scheduled to be completed this fall I picked up another project to round out my stable and feed the love I have for these cars. Some of you might recognize it, its originally a 1989 Diamond Schwartz E30 M3 now wearing its new skin of BMW Individual "Fire Orange".

    I wish I could say that I was personally building these two awesome cars myself, like many of you have done building awesome machines of your own but, my responsibilities here in Afghanistan and other Theaters around the world keep me busy. Up to now I have done 98% of the work to the vert in the years I have owned her. The Vert was sent to AMS Autowerks in N.J. and the M3 is in route to Autocraft BMW Specialist in Long Island. Here are pictures followed by renderings of finished products or close to it. I like to Thank Mike Edler and Gotstance for their inspiration Particularly GotStance for letting me cut up his car. Comments and questions welcomed.











    THESE ARE RENDERINGS BELOW NOT THE ACTUAL CARS

              I will reveal the power plants when they unveil... as to the valence, yes its an Alpina valence on the rendering, It will be wearing a legit type 162 Alpina valence when completed.

                        Wasn't this car for sale for quite some time on S14.net? Glad you are staying with it and finishing it.

                          Hmm nice to see the M3 finally go to someone who might get the job done. That thing has traded hands here in Miami for the last few years.
