Just for you stiggy








Pics of the gas tank and sunroof





I put the door seals on and you can say its a tight fit



Tomorrow will do more but not alot. I need help with the 1/4 windows and trim. Also forgot the mirrors at painters house so monday I'll stop by and get em.

[ThatOneEuroE30]

yeah, sunroofs are the fuckin worst

They really are... I told my painter once this one is in Im not gonna touch it. To me I have a slicktop...

Good things happening in here. Those meaty tyres on the turbos. Also really like how the paint changes in different lighting. Looks anywhere from gun metal, all the way through to a dark bronze/brown. Might even have a bit of a green hue to it in some of those pictures.

Thanks. It really does look awesome. Im gonna try and put the front bumper on with the alpina valence tonight.

It will all be worth it when you are done, man. I had to leave the house early today, but I will swing by in a bit and check on the condition of my spare tank for you.

Your good buddy, If car
Is from texas it should be decent I hope...

Seems like you've been taking lessons from Slammin.

My euro 320i/B6 3.5 Turbo Alpina Tribute Now in assembly

Car is home but not without much pain and agony. Me and painter were trying to get sunroof in and the bottom edge of sunroof caught the roof and took a nice 1 inch gouge out of the sun roof so it needs a repaint no way around it. I also found out the cloth lining for sunroof and metal frame on mine are destroyed so I need to find a new one thats not broke. And then to too things off when loading it on the trailer i some how managed to rip a giant hole in my fuel tank with out touching the rest of the car. I drained a half tank of gas faster then pump I've seen haha. So tomorrow i will be getting a new tank put on order and then I will finish assembly. I told painter I'm gonna get it running driving and licensed with the botched paint on the roof then I'm gonna take him the keys to the shop and car and tell him to fix it when he can cause I'm done trailering it now... And the shop is only 5 min from his house versus keeping it at my house which is 30 min from his house. Needless to say the car is wearing my patience thin. Very very thin...


Ill add pics tomorrow. Im gonna go drink heavily...

What color is that?

Zobelbraun metallic. One of the more rare colors only offered in Europe I believe and from my research was only around for 2-3 years.

Check to be sure the cps is working, or put in another one to be sure it is working. You have an m50 right? Cps will keep it from starting.

Nope m30. I gave up and disconnected the battery and took it to painter for the buffing. I get it there he connects batteries and it fires right up... I was like wtfff. I got new ignition switch cause i believe thats it. When I did motor swap I tested cps it was good and I haven't done anything with car to warrant it going out? Its just sat.

cps

Im getting power to my fuse box. And my starter. But the exciter wire isnt getting power. On top of that the black and yellow wire that is only power when key is pos 2 is only reading 0.08 when its turned. Ive checked connections and they are all plugged in.

Car comes back tomorrow night. Just ordered a bunch of tubing.





Figure i should be able to build an exhaust with that. Got a vibrant muffler to match. Gonna be 2.5 straight to a muffler no emissions for this guy ;)

[ThatOneEuroE30]

Still sitting at the body shop getting buffed. Hes only been able to get to it on the weekends and i guess its buffing super slow like taking a day per panel. I got all my chrome moldings stripped and realized they look like shit. But I cant get new ones so I'm gonna have to deal with these until good ones come up in the yard or something.

[Alpina]

Looking great !!
