E30 Zone

I have being a member on here for a while but never got any pics of the car up.
Ive had it since 09 and have being getting it back to its former glory when time and money allow,its only the last few months its being on the road.
Happy enough with her now but still a few bits to be done as there always is with these 20+ year old cars.
A few pics of the work ive done to her and rust repairs to follow.

Lovely looking car. A Dolphin Grey Tech 1 is probably my favourite E30.

I'm a sucker for a tech 1

Yea,le mans tail pipes Jozi.

First off when i got her i started stripping her to see the extent of rot on the shell,the only visable rust was a hole in the sunroof panel.
All the usual places under the battery,scuttle panel,jacking points,arches etc were all solid,but as we all know 90% of these cars on the road have some rot hidden somewhere.

Behind the glovebox.


Welded up.


Driver footwell where the heatsheild was fixed to the floor.




Im sure most of you have seen this before,its crazy how these cars rot in the same places.


Welded up from other side
