Melon's E30 Build.

Definitely, it will be the "Rebuilt @" mileage As far as paperworkgoes, I don't think they make binders that thick, lol.

Ref: Your previous post. I have had a lot of people telling me they want to restore an old car, I always say it's a genuine labor of love, with empasis on labor, and love of spending money.

Too true! If I had the money back I've invested in labor on all my cars, I could retire. Comfortably! LOL!

Nice job!

That's really nice!! Looks amazing, I cant wait to see mine run again one day. Life and children have gotten in the way lately so I've had to leave it sitting and only been able to work on it off and on.

Good job!!!

Thanks!

Ran in the cam, changed the oil, and worked on some of the interior wiring. Got rid of the push button start, went back to turning the key.

None of the interior lights come on, unless the dimmer is turned all the way on, strange.

Anyway, snapped a few pics.

Looks great man, jealous that you have yours running. What was your turnaround time with the Bavarian Restoration cluster restore? Did you have them do your AFM or just the cluster?

Thanks! I'm super stoked seeing it all come together.

I talked with Greg, he told me about 6 weeks, about week 5 of that, I ordered a refurbished AFM, and asked about my cluster, he replied "What cluster".
I think he forgot, and it took about another month, he did give me a nice discount to make up for it. I wasn't in a hurry, so that was very fair of him.

Cluster arrived about 3 days before I was ready to fire up the engine, so I never was waiting on it, talk about perfect timing.

TL DR; It could be a while, if you need the car, get a replacement to use temporarily. But 100% recommended.

Greg does awesome work! I had my cluster done by him as well as all new grounding cables.

I forgot, I bought his grounding cables as well, another 10/10 product.
