hmmmnnn....

this will be project will be on your mind before you sleep each night...

believe me, mine was 5 years in the making, yours is one fifth of my time...besides my e28, fast track of 2.5 months...

since you on the whole fire wall, get more welding done on the joints, on the tower, not too much, might distort the chassis..then ask them to use the 'car joint putty'.. kev will know which one to use..

if you wan the chassis to be more reliable, suggest to foam the front inner strut (as shown in the picture without the fender).. since the panels are being replaced part by part.. it will do some justice..

i will add some advise here and there..

cheers..

bro, appreciate those pointers. keep em coming. for now, foaming is already included in the plan for this car - our conversatiion some months ago on that procedure convinced me to do it. thanks..
 
more major surgery..

Nice updates. Welding work on the body? Seems rather amusing to look at shirtless mechanic doing welding works. :D

Hahaha. Okie dokie. Everyday checking on progress of your E30 ah? How long will the whole project take? I'm sure it'll be money well-spent. :top:

thanks bro.. i hope you start on yours soon. the longer you wait, the more expensive it will get :) it always saddens me to see old BMW's die of cancer (rust) because they weren't loved enough by owners.
worry not, there is an E30 fraternity.. and we shall certainly help one another.

more pics coming soon..
