      I was wondering what was happening with this car. Glad to see an update.
      How to remove, install or convert to pop out windows

      Could be better, could be worse.

        Haven't really been working on it much after we found out about the paint issue but it should go pretty quickly from here. We have gathered a few cool parts for this car that will be fun to install including a basically new old stock set of suspension technique sway bars, E21 recaros and some cool old school 15" ACT wheels.

          Hey, I know you have lots of old BMW parts, but...
          I have Original 6x15" Panasports for your BMW,
          or really period perfect 8x13" BWA rims.
          And parts sitting around. Nice round-light project!

                  Have you seen the 76 2002 listed on C-list NoVa? Was wondering if Marshall had as well. Presents itself well.

                    The blue one with the rally lights? If I'm not mistaken that car used to be local to the Winchester area, if its the same car it always looked solid however the last time I saw it was probably 15 years ago. Lately I have been hunting cars a little more.... aircooled.

                        Don't take this the wrong way but it is after all her car, she gets the same kind of thing at the racetrack when we are both there. 99% of the time if someone is curious about her racecar they come up to me and ask first. When I am at the track helping out in a t shirt and jeans and a beer in my hand and she is in her race suit they still ask me about the car like I own it and drive it... like she routinely dresses up like a racecar driver just to hang out in the paddock. It gets quite annoying after a while but I never really noticed it until she pointed it out to me and then I really started picking up on it. Again, I am not saying nor implying anything about you but I just wanted to point that out.

                          Nah it's fine. I kind of had a feeling. Well I'm glad SHE is finishing her fathers legacy. It really is cool.

                                The Recaros with our dear freind staking his claim to one of them. He once tried to claw these pristine houndstooth beauties so we locked them in a spare bedroom with a sheet over them. Oh how he pined for them.





                                I answered a craiglist ad a few years back for these and when I got to the house he had old school parts stashed away all over the place. That was one of my big finds over the last few years, after I sold the other stuff I bought from this guy I essentially got the Recaros for free. Great day parts hunting!
