    All black everything

    So originally i had planed on swapping an s52 into my 325is. Before the engine got reassembled i had an opportunity to get an m3 shell. I thought this was a perfect chance because i already had a full drive train sitting around. So i sold my silver car and picked up the shell. It was about 9 hours north of me but well worth the drive.

    My plans for it are an s52/zf/2.93 (i do alot of highway). Suspension is e30 m3 stuff on shortened GC's with all new OEM rubber, THR's, OEM ca's/ties, and an e36 z3m rack. The rest is still up in the air. On with the pictures:

    On the way home


    After a day of work





    I plan to strip all the tar and rhino line the interior




    All the stuff to be tossed


    Off to be blasted/powder coated


    So pretty


    Old head



    Various parts, pretty much everything in the engine is new, including the crank









    Thats all for now!

                          who are you using to powder coat? AJ at West Coast in SSF is real cool and his prices are good.
