Daily Driver. (pics galore)

Weekend car is down for a while, but it was another e30. There will be a build thread on that one to come.

Not a whole lot done today, just little test fits. Snapped a few pictures on the way home from work.




Like my bent up oil cooler? Present from the PO.


Testing this for use on the 'weekend' car in the future ;)


Got home and teh gf had done some of my trim, I was very surprised.


Tomorrow should be a bit more interesting.

Phase one.

Old faded plastic, sidemarkers and most other trim, bent up valances and cracked glass. This simply will not do.

Did a little painting to see what this would look like, not sure about it yet the color is 'cast iron' not just primer. All the trim is going to get an SEM treatment. While all that stuff is off I'll see if I can't get the paint looking a little better.



Yeah, thats right.


Also a set of summer wheels!


Webcam pics FTW.

This is the thread where I will post progress on my daily driver. Overall goal? I'm not sure yet, but basically to have a nice, clean looking and mechanically sound daily transport.

This is the car as purchased last october, pretty rough, very leaky and in dire need of alot of mechanical attention. Now that I've got that 95% completed, I'm starting to do a little cosmetic retouching to make it look on the outside how it feels on the inside.






I usually work best when I keep a good account of just what it is I'm doing. So making this thread will help keep me on task and not just go out joyriding!

Hopefully you'll all enjoy the updates.
