New member with an almighty project

Hello,

My names Parms. I’m 2 years in the paint/repair industry (so still a novice), and have been a BMW fan since I could drive. Since I’ve acquired a somewhat dream garage (a dream for me at least) including a very rusty E30 325 Mtech 2. I’ll drop a few pictures below of my current collection. I’m in the process of a nut and bolt resto on the e30, so please check out my thread on the projects section I will definitely be needing help and guidance from you guys!

Thanks for having a read!

Welcome to the zone. Look forward to seeing your progress.
Painting skills are very useful to have, since, done properly, this is often one of the more expensive aspects of restoration.

That’s awesome! They’re great cars man. I’ve had quite a few over the years. But I’ve never had one flat out haha

The e36 is a M3 evo (splitter soon to be fitted). My first e36 was a 318, awesome car. It really made you work through the gears 😂
