325i Cab Mauritius Blue Lotus White Leather Mini Restoration
Posted: Tue Nov 06, 2012 1:10 pm
Here I bought a standard E30 325i Auto convertible on a 1993 K Reg of a chap on the zone....
So it sat in the garage until i could be bothered to actually do something with it (4 months later)
So the sport got sold and the project started on the cab...
I didnt want to spend 6K on a Mauritius Blue Motorsport so this was the closest option until the Rust was revealed
The car had Genuine 91000 Miles on it and had last 10 years mots.
As the color was a Motorsport Color (Mauritius Blue) I got lucky and found some genuine Lotus White Leather Of The Zone which come out of a calypso red Motorsport, sadly the door cards were not for sale so only the seats were bought...(Still looking for some)
The wheels got sent of to be powder coated In Nagaro Silver.
Then Bought A Genuine M-Tec II Kit of shaz325isport On the zone which was for a convertible.
Heres Few Pictures it has new front wings new rear arches new inner arches new jacking points few bits underneath welded door sills welded wax and oiled underneath second hand drivers door rustfree and then it got sent of to get resprayed in its original color.
Pics to come soon....
heres the old sport
