Some progress occurred over the weekend. I spent Friday night and Saturday morning finishing audio install in the e36 and then attended the Dockweiler meet at Playa Del Rey. It was a really nice time. And then it was crazy stormy and raining on Sunday so that slowed my progress. I spent a lot of time reorganizing the garage as I do before any bigger project.
Made some brackets from scrap steel for a shelf to hold all the exhaust tubign and steel I have on hand. I got tired of that stuff just sitting on the floor.
Picked up a set of calipers at the Dockweiler meet. They need to be rebuilt but I got them for a good price. Trying to decide whether or not to have them powdercoated, or just use some caliper spray paint. Also can't decide on color though I think they would look great in white behind the bronze/black wheels. It would be a nice contrast.
New headlights arrived
Cleaned up the new front subframe and started welding in the reinforcements. Comments/criticism on the welding are always welcome since I am still very very new at it. The hobart 140 is fantastic though. So much easier than using that harbor freight inverter stick welder it's not even funny.
