I will definitely be stealing this idea from you, at least on the passenger side. Looks sososososo good, just wish my clutch pedal/ mc assembly wasn't right in the way on the driverside.

Stitch weld it slowly with a friend blowing compressed air on the weld right afterwards. it wont warp that way.

I know I said I was going to keep the DB's but they car isnt staying black anymore. and I dont think the db look good on the color im going Calypso

I see your a good welder...what do you think about the removable rad support that some do? thinking about doing it...seen some do it and it just seems like a engine swap/maintenance would be so much easier and so worth it...Denny

dont have the extra money or enough projects to constitiute a tig welder.
anyways for anyone that cares to know. It seems the S50 is out if all goes well this weekend with the sale. Decided that if im going to build my dream car then im going to do it all the way. E30 is my favorite car body ever made, but bmw doesnt make my favorite engine. Forthat I have to look further east. No details for now, but its going to shit on everything.
