Still looks very much the same, but it's gonna be cleaned up and looking good again soon!!! On BBS at the mo - schnitzers have been refurbed & powder coated black and waiting on tyres!!! Stickers will be removed soon!!!!

Having said it still looks the same, I should say it has gone through a lot of other changes and a couple of engines!! Lol!!

Why two head units ^^

[bss325i]

When i first bought it in 2006





Taken last summer

[pac1982]

Why two head units ^^

one was a screen with only radio output and I’m a bit of a fiend for quality audio and screen head units never sound that good, I later upgraded to this set up the Alpine 799R the finest head unit money can buy......

Summer time



Now rusty

I bought it in 2009 and it was a pile of shit. I found it in a salvage yard and had been stood off the road for over 8 years. Engine bay looked like a jungle. It should have been sent straight to china.




Mouldy carpet



List of things done:


Now looks like presentable car, but in the future will be restored to back in its early days when some yuppie bought it in 1987.

It still amazes me the things people do to cars and think they look great

Looking good though dude... The chromie, not you.

I'm still liking the "swiss cheese" look you have gone for, infact, i have already started modelling my chromie around yours.

The bonnet came off a track car stripes included, I just heven't gotten round to removing them.

That said, I'm getting a bit attached to them.
