Dude, your car is spewing with awesome.

I have drastically changed my opinion about E21's after your thread.

Good stuff. keep it up.

[AbsorbantNut]

I've been following this thread for months. This car makes me want an e21 soooo badd. My neighbor down the street has a red one and I cringe every time I drive by, its so nice. Good job Dave, keep it up!

[ben312]

I dig those wheels.

[fred purple]

e21's just became cool, not just the ugly precessor to the e30

[Dave-ger]

thanks dudes, here's another pic:



also, can anyone guess what the center caps are made out of? I think only one person got it right on the first guess so far.

oh, and it's a little lower in it's current state which is the same as in the car dealership pics than in the pic of it on the street. Considering bringing it down a little more, going to at least do it temporarily when I get around to it, that's the beauty of cheap coil-overs, I can always change my mind.

I've been kind of distracted from the car this summer, rebuilding the front of the frame and suspension on my truck, lots involved with that.

Look up e30 euro bumpers, same thing e30 style

[Dave-ger]

I would love euro bumpers, just not going to spend that kind of cash... unless I find them really cheap... considered a simple tube front bumper that would have the top plated and follow the lines of the car. on the back, I have to move the rear valance out to make euro bumpers or no bumpers look good... don't even know about the sides where that stupid rubber stuff is.

I'll probably do a front bumper tuck soon at least... also, euro bumpers or no bumpers would show off my bent up front valance too much. ;)

[Dave-ger]

well, it appears that one of my CV's bound up and made me loose control of my car... the drive line kinked real bad and ruined the gas tank and exhaust while heavily modifying the trans tunnel and ripping the transmission mount out of the factory slots on the body... yea, I'm just lucky I didn't hit anyone. I was passing my friend, then I hear a really bad noise, followed by tire noise and metal on pavement noise, then I did a 360 infront of my friend's bug that has crappy drum brakes, came out of the 360, and kind of did a drift onto the shoulder of the road. it took two tow trucks to recover it. a regular one to get it on the road, and a flat bed to get it into town...

here's a few carnage pics, I should have pics of the scene of the accident soon.


















it's going to be a little while till I fix this I think... I was thinking about scrapping it and starting over with something else, but I think i can fix it.
