Killer E30 man, lovin' it. Nice build.
Any idea what kinda numbers you're putting down with the S50?
Still trying to decide if I wanna go down the swap road, or build and Turbo the M20. Well, when I find one that is

That's awesome. It's so weird coming from my garage to having that much space. I've been gone for a couple days down in Florida for a wedding so I should have more updates on the shop tomorrow. The metal walls should all be up in the back which is going to make it look 100x better.Leave a comment:

Fixed the shop photos but it will be a while til I fix the others, I lost a lot of them because I got a new computer. I'll just start another build thread for the whole shop including my cars.Leave a comment:

Yeah I was trying to organize my flickr and accidentally deleted them all...I'm not going to do anything to the car for a while so I might just start a new build page for round two.Leave a comment:

Still been really busy working on the shop but I finally got around to taking some pictures of the place last week and I'm just now uploading them.
Here is the building itself. It's about a 20 year old metal building that was being used as a warehouse.

It's divided into two sections. The front section was refinished a couple years ago and is smaller than the back section. It has an office area that wasn't quite complete so this past week I have been doing all of the dry wall work on it. On top of the office used to be a storage room but we tore it down and built a railing around the top so we could store parts and stuff up there.

Here is the back room. It was never really finished so this week all the metal paneling is going up. A lot of the insulation was damaged so I've spent the last two weeks fixing that when I have a little free time.

Around the side has a nice covered area that I have been using to park all the e30s. I have three that I am parting and and one that I fixed and am selling. It's in the process of being paved right now and will hopefully be finished by the end of the week depending on the weather.

All in all everything is going great. I haven't worked on cars much but I have learned a lot about construction which is always good to know. I have my first customer job this week doing a 5 speed swap which is pretty exciting to finally get the ball rolling.
In case you don't want to see pics of the shop here is a pic of the bmw to keep your interest.
