So here's a question... Do you put a M3 badge on it when it's done? :)

Blasphemy!

It's clearly an ///M344

That's when I should be getting into the thick of things. Doing some parts gathering right now. This current semester ends early May. After it's over with, I'm going to pick up a DD and start tearing apart the car.

Can't wait to see this thing up and running! You better finish it before I finish my M62 adventure.

I'm hoping to be up and running by the middle of May... what's your timeframe?

^^^ Thanks guys... It's kind of slow going right now, trying to tie up all the loose ends with the wiring. I did get the engine harness through the firewall and my main power junction at the front done. I should be able to get a battery in it tomorrow night and power up the car harness to check everything. Here's one picture I took last week with most all of the unpainted parts temporarily on the car...



I'll have some more to post later in the week...

I am floored, Garey. I cannot wait to see this one in person. Looks like you might make it on time for gutenfest! I wont , however. But definitely bimmerfest in aug.

Your car is truly an inspiration and has been a long time coming for sure!

You know, when this thing is all said and done and you go for a photoshoot, you can accidentally leave the rear spoiler at home. Just sayin ;)

is there any way to view only photos in this thread? (separate thread?)

I have like 800 photos, probably close to 1000 by the time it's done. I could make another thread, but it would be tough to get them all posted while keeping anyone from posting in the thread. Maybe when I get it done I could do it... and see if I could get it locked, so no one could post in it...

Thanks man, it's good to be at least somebody's inspiration, even if it is only 90%, lol... On a side note, your one sig from Ian Bowers was from a post in my build thread he made like a year and a half ago... too funny!

Haha I've been following for a while.

What an inspiration. This build is 90 percent of the reason I'm planning a V8 swap. Thank you so much
