Mission to the Cosmos

[Albie325]

Looks very clean, nice pickup. Glad to see that even the admins get excited about a clean, auto, '86 ETA

I guess I missed it, but what happened the last time you did a timing belt??

[ForcedFirebird]

Was wondering why the other thread kinda fizzled. :/

Very nice! I have a minty fresh automatic shifter cover if you want...

[agent]

Sub'd, obviously.

[Balleristic31]

Much better car than the Cirrus! :up:

Come pick up that M52 crank for your 2.8. :)

Fantastic save! Excited to see the tranny swap. I was warned off it by a garage here on a really clean "is." Of course I regret it.

^But, aren't you still busy working on the Datsun?

[2mAn]

Rather than quote everyone, I will just say Thanks to all...

to several who asked, euro bumpers will be down the road, and perfectly straight and aligned fogs will also stay until they come off for the euro bumps ;)

@IceWhite I daily drive my E30s and have my old Datsun for vintage racing. I demand a lot from these cars and they usually respond well.

@Jokester It will be partially in the garage and partially street parked, so anything that can protect the good paint thats left would be great. Im also using my sunvisor regularly because the dash only has one small crack and Id like it to stay that way as long as possible. It will likely need some paint work down the road, but its nowhere near as annoying to me as the Cirrusly Blue car was.

[Jokester]

Put her in a cover or garage her! I don’t want that paint getting worse.

[IceWhite]

Nice. Very Nice!!!

Love stories like these. So, what were you using for a daily just before getting this one?

[TFJR]

Congrats on the new E30. I love early models when done up with all the euro pieces (BUMPERS). Sounds like you've got some big plans for this one! Enjoy it. Happy 3/25 day

Hi Simon, glad to hear about your addiction. Looking forward to seeing your work here. And remember, if you turn your fog lights sideways a little bit you'll be cooler and faster.

[mike.bmw]

Nice find. Looking forward to seeing what you do with this one. :D

[wworm]

[MrBurgundy]
