    Images needed for E30 book

    I'm working on a book on owning, restoring and modifying E30s for Cartech publishing. I have done some work with Robert at E30Motoworks in CA, but I've run out of time and I'm still short a bunch of images of various setups, parts and cars.

    I've seen some pretty amazing photography skills on r3v and I am hoping that you photogs would like to donate some images to the cause. I will give full credit, of course - I'm not in the business of stealing others' work.

    I have a long list of needs, organized by chapter, and I'll try to list them all here. If you have something that you think I might like, please PM or email me and I'll get right back to you.

    I will have a few promo copies of the book and I will send out as many copies as I can to people that supply images.

    Here are the suspension shots I need:

    - 5-lug swap detail shots (E36 brakes, caster problems)
    - an E30 on airbags (ever seen one?)
    - rear spring pads
    - swaybar close to axle on extremely lowered car
    - modified rear roll center (raised pivots)
    - raised rear subframe
    - all types of stock wheels (baskets, bottlecaps, etc.), close-up of tire/wheel on car
    - ix suspension details (under car, strut tower location in front)
    - Spec E30 wheels
    - Various 15-, 16-, 17- and 18-inch wheels on cars with known wheel/tire specs
    - wheel spacers installed
    - reinforced rear shock towers
    - skid plates installed
    - E36/Z3/Z4 steering racks installed
    - 740 master cylinder (larger diameter MC)
    - car being corner weighted
    - car being aligned


    More to come...
Working...
