Looks great I would trade my Schwarze car for a brillianroit car anyday
I like the way the car sits

[JinormusJ]

Looks like you've been doing a fantastic job :up:
Looks really clean. I love seeing beaters get turned into show-goers. Definitely looks better than it was before. Keep it up! :)

small update, Installed analog clock, took some pictures with the gopro.

(snipped the wires a little to short with out realizing it, but the good thing is if I ever chose to go back to 6 button I have an extra wire harness:))

Mad props Geno!
Looking good.
Jelly of the moon roof.. and your stance with the front hats appears bang on.
Keeping it simple is the way to go.

Cheers.

thank you Simon, for sure simple is better :) I love your car BTW

paint looks great, original? Also, going from a small case to medium case diff, based on the pictures it looks like the driveshaft would get streched to fit, how did that works out for you? I'm planning to change out my small case open 4.10 for a 2.93 LSD for ultimate mpgs:)

Thank you, the paint is all respray unfortunately, From small case to medium case the drive shaft moved in maybe a quarter inch, and plenty of room to slide the studs into the diff, the only hard part of the swap was lining up the four top bolts, took an extra hour for me by my self. having to climb a latter, reach in the car to put and take the car out of gear was a little time consuming also, if you have an extra pair of hands the whole thing could be done in less the two hours guaranteed :) *let me know how the s2.93 treats you

getting ready for the e30 picnic, changed differential & fluid today from s4.10 to s3.73, so far I like it it’s about 200rpms lower on the freeway, will see how I do on miles. Then met with Matt B, tomorrow whole lot of touch up paint, & most likely re paint all the black exterior trim.
