hi guy's

not been on here for a while with work and projects etc.

right. got the e30 pick up into primer, needs a bit of stopper here and there which i'm doing tomorrow. its in high build primer now but i think it needs blocking down and repriming to make sure all lines are bang on and looks the tits. tub needs to be built, basically all the major panel work and hard work has been done both rear lower rear arches (where the rear bumper is) need a bit of welding but not much. haven't really got time to finish it off and need the room, so is anyone interested before i put it on ebay

project pick up. all views welcome. good or bad.

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEET

thanks for all the positive feed back gang,

more pics will be up soon, as i'm only 2 weeks into the project.

engine. 320i is in at the mo. just not sure which way to go, as i'm well into my turbo's

reason for me doing the beemer pickup is advertising purposes and also wanted to do something to a motor with rear wheel drive. never had or drove a beemer before so decided to go for the old e30

if you wanna check out any of my work then go to http://www.myspace.com/bstyling which i update regualer
