I miss this thread... :(

[M3PO]

Wow, so close and yet no cigar! Went through the whole thing and I am sorely disappointed!


That house is gonna be sick though!

[kingston]

We all are. I've ceased holding my breath at this point. Sickest incomplete build ever :( Garey, why have you forsaken us?!

[Luke Girard]

Took me yesterday and today to read this whole thread! I was reading it before I went to bed yesterday and ended up falling asleep around page 17 or so. I can't believe how much fabrication you have done! Its awesome and I hope someday I can do something like this!

P.S. I'm DYING for an UPDATE!

Any more info you can shed on the rear coilover setup?

So I got the rear coilover stuff today and I was able to get the car off the rotisserie and back down on the wheels... pics...







And some re-assembly shots...

Nice project!

Originally found this after someone referred to you in the v8 swap section.. A few hours later I have not moved an inch and I'm absolutely in awe man. Nothing I can say hasn't been said already. Please finish this thing and bring it to bfest next year. That should give you enough time to get it all completely buttoned up. First class build man.

Way to go man, you took "Built not bought" to the next level.

[Speedkills]

Not sure what to be more impressed by the cabinet/countertop making or car build, both are amazing!!!

[jburnsbmw]

Great build! You have inspired me to do a similar build!

Wow, I found this thread from reading up on E30 vehicles. Fascinating build both the car and the house!! I was dropped jawed to see this is taking place in my own town! I live in Hummelstown as well! Does this project have anything to do with Bimmer Buddies that is just outside of town?

I would love to drop by and see the car some time if that is OK.

[DER E30]

Yes! What's cracking???
I just finished reading through the whole thing. That's a bit of work!

[LivingLegend06]

I think its time to get back to work on that car. Any progress since the last update?

R3v will e slap you across the face if you do so. :)

Does that leave a mark? Seems pretty un-physical to me, lol!

As I always say, everything is always for sale, if the right price is met... that being said, I don't know that anyone would pay what I'd want for the car as it sits right now, so I think it's pretty realistic to assume it won't get sold... but you never know, right? Maybe some prince from Bahrain has been secretly eyeing it since I started the build and will now pounce on the opportunity to add it to his collection of rare E30's...

yeah right, lol!
