Re: Jimbobs green 323
more good bmw things have happened

found a nice hardtop for the survivor
and even better put a new cambelt on my 1991 e36 1.8 after the old one snapped
and it fired right up no damage

the poor thing has sat there for nearly 2 years waiting to be fixed
the only thing wrong with it is the clutch cylinders have gone

Re: Jimbobs green 323
Update time.
Things are moving along now, the windscreen surround has been replaced.
The new wiper hole cut out and the extra one welded up

The sunroof has gone.


Then it was primer


Ive got a new job working nights so i havent had time to do anything on the e21.
It wont be long till i get it back now and i can start putting it all together.
first glimpse of colour


The inside painted too with some new floor plugs

Re: Jimbobs green 323
Some great progress, thanks for the update. When are you planning to have the outside painted?
Regards/groeten, Jeroen
Re: Jimbobs green 323
Hopefully within the next two weeks. Theyre going to sand and reprime where needed and then start the colour

No about a half a mile from any road. God knows how it ended up in there

Re: Jimbobs green 323
it looks like E30 to me
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you.
