my e36 restoration/slow build

[e30construction]

Just thought i'd share my 93 325i e36 I've been restoring..bought for $450 cash from a lady that let it sit for nearly 2 years..120k+ miles


First Day..seriously oxidized and sitting on fugly bottlecaps

Got some different wheels..notice the whole upper half oxidized

Spent a couple days polishing, and repainting a few things..also lowered on eibach springs 1.5 in the front 1 in the rear

turned out looking pretty good




Thanks for looking and let me know what you think

The photos of your E36 at the gas station reminded me of this short film.

Good luck with the Resto!

Paint the wheel wells black!

Did you plasti-dip the wheels and kidneys so you can go back?

Starting to look good otherwise. I've had thoughts of getting a 4 door e36 just to daily.
