Well, it's getting closer, lol... Once I'm comfortable with the run lengths, the harness will get wrapped again, it's kind of hokey just bare wires, but it'll get cleaned up. I ordered a lot of the brake system stuff, should be in mid-week, hopefully, I can get the harness squared away before then...

Alpine III, it was always going to be Alpine... best color on the M3 body, IMO...

Awesome job on the wire tuck! I really like the idea of going between the strut tower and wheel housing strut. I may have to steal that idea from you (like the many others I've already stolen, lol).

Ha, it's not my idea, lol! I've seen it done before, so if I stole the idea, you're more than welcome to it...

I've been following your build for a while and it's nothing short of amazing. You're only about an hour away from me, so I might have to come take a look at this thing in person when it's finished.

I'd love to do something like this myself one day.

Yeah, come up anytime! It's taken a long time, but I think it will be well worth the time when it's done...

Thanks, I just spit out my coffee, Lol!:):):)

How's it going my friend? Was reading about the 190 you and Emre are building last night... That is looking very good... a chase across Montana between that and my E30 would be fun, no? Might make for getting to the West Coast a little quicker, haha. It'll be ready for the nice weather, come springtime... I'll bring it over in the spring, so we can do a shoot with the 190, deal?
