E30 Zone

Lets introduce my e30 project,
It started some thing like 2 nonths ago with buying a '87 type 1 320 2doors
He was equiped with some Hartge stuff for a type 2 model and also some other type 2 stuff as bumpers and front fender.
My goal is to get it back in orriginal type 1 shape with only beautyful rims and a 60/40 lowering.
So i got me an extra 320i with engine damage for spare's wich i'm breaking down now while i rebuild the other one.
A few weeks ago i was able to buy a 325i convertible from '89 and thats thus wat i did also
Detailed pics from the convertible will follow later

got yourself quite a collection i see. Good luck with the 320i, its intresting to see the previous owner got the Facelift rear bumpers on.. i always thought it wasnt a straight bolt on job. Interesting..

Very nice line up mate, hartge kit looks really good. Weird about the face lift bumpers thought

nice one mate,

good little lot

It was not a straight bolt on job thought there are some small mods on the rear and front bumber and attachement points.

The Hartge kit wil be removed and maybe the EVOIII spoiler on the trunk also

nice collection you got there mate

nice collection of cars you go there

Start to fix the back rest of the drivers seat from the Cabrio
The last ones ho dismanteled it, lost an attachement of the hard part of the back aparently he decided to stick it back with some thing like Tec 7 glue.






It was one hell of a job to get it off without damage to the leather or carboard part
Any way i managed to get it off and next monday i will try to fix the mechanisme so the back will remain straigt again

Small update

The Black 320 is sold in spares.
The Green is also Breaked down for spares.
-Engine is sold
-interior is sold
-Hartge Kit is sold
-rear spoiler is sold
And the last bit ( as on the picture) is normally sold also




So now there is again some space to fill in on the driveway

Tomorow i will do a small trip to Germany to collect one i won on ebay.de
Hope he dus not dissapoint me











Depending on de shape he's in, he will serve first as a donor for the 325 that i already have and then, or breaking for spares or rebuild or sell as complete car.

After tomorrow we will see

car looks in good nic, the interior looks nice. I like the steelies, u can get those banded and get that mad max look going.

Today's trip to Germany was verry sucsesfull

@ 7am we where ready to go:




Once in place we checked the car and loaded it on the trailer whitout hesitating.





By 3pm we where back @home to introduce th new one to his new friends





The car has a almost new soft top and the interior is also in a remarcable condition.
So he will be a perfect donor for my Gray 325

love the latest addition looks well nice

Did'n 't had much time lately to work on the car itself, but on death moments @work i have done a small mod

like the new addition to your family, very nice !!

nice collection

1st time ive seen a cabby with steelies i take it there temp

The cabby with the steels is for spares they where on the car when i bought it.
They have good winter tire's on it.
I think i will keep them as spare wheels

We made some progres on the 325 today
First of all, i reassembled de drivers seat of the orriginal interior.



Then we started on the soft top swap





To be honest, it's a "piece of cake" to remove the soft top





Here 's the roofless guy




To adjust the top is quite easy with shims between the attachement points.





And it does looks nice



I could not see him standing there whitout a roof so i gave him back a shelter





So this was the result of the day





Next step to take is to build over the interior and then we can start to think to register the car

Interior is done

The last pic in SUV mode



The park brake shoes where needed to change



Complete new brake set for the rear
And new suspension




There's a small difference between the orriginal springs and the KW ones



Complete new brake set and suspension @ the front



And the first pic of the result
