Hi guys

Im Zee,

I would like to share my small project with you guys which I have been working on over 6 months now,

the car is a original 325i sport 1987 D reg, m tec 1, which was in need of help, i bought the car from a friend who had her sitting on his drive for over a year.

I have done alot of work to the car since I have had her and still not finished but i thought id start sharing now before I forget

I hope you guys like my posts and please feel free to add you advise and thoughts

I just need to know how to add images so I could start posting

Set up an account with http://s1272.photobucket.com/

You can then upload your photos from your computer to photobucket, then copy and paste the link on here

Photo bucket is aggro and puts up to many pop ups/windows when viewing etc

Use postimage.org, much better site to use

Look forward to seeing the project

I'm very sorry, I'm new to this!

Could you tell me how I could move the topic

Got bored at work so decided to paint the grills

I washed the car in order to see the condition of the bodywork, my aim with this car is to restore it to how I want the car which is to look original but have the lowered suspension and upgraded alloys, I am keeping the original bits just in case I want to put it back to standard.

Have replaced the thumbnail pics with web sized ones. Have left some thumbnails so you can work out which link to select.

Now for the best part "rust"

The car was sent to the welders to have this issue rectified surprisingly it was only the driver side that had issues and the passenger side was solid and didn't need any welding

Nice to see another Tech 1 alive and kicking. Keep the updates coming!

while I was waiting for the car to be booked in at the welders approx 2 week wait, the car went in to my mate Adeels garage to get some of the mechanical work done,

WELL as it was sat for a while and for my own pieces of mind I had nearly everything replaced,

All Bushes including Sub Frame bushes
Brake master cylinder
power steering pump
new brakes all round
Clutch Slave cylinder
Brake sensor

and a few other small things, including the all important COILOVERS!
