As the thing arrived at my door,that's the wife telling me I am cr
azy(i already knew that..)
Found this lot in the boot..

This will have to go,BMW's have 6 pots!
Passenger side interior as it arrived.The alarm took me two half days to remove!
Drivers side as it arrived..
Worst part of the interior,driver's seat.I have found some fabric for the bolster,but I am stuck for fabric for the centre panels.Anyone got some?A rear seat from a neon green cabbie will do me,I can collect and will pay your price!
Car stripped ready for the bodyshop.
Needs rear arches and one or two other bits welding.
I decided to pay the experts to do the bodywork,so that it will look right!
As at Friday afternoon,the shell is largly rubbed down ready for paint and the welding was about to start.
Bonnet and boot lids were in the spay booth,just been painted.
Fresh neon green is a bit bright....
On other bits,I have the interior bits mostly cleaned and ready to go back,driver's seat is stripped,I found that the base of the frame was broken on the l/h side...I have a replacement frame and the cleaned inner bolsters have been re-fitted.Jane is going to sew up replacement bolster covers for the r/h side someday soon,just leaving the centre panels to sort out.
One idea is to trim both theigh extentions in plain grey,leaving the patterned bits to make good the main parts,any thoughts?
Look out for the next update....

Very good 
). Have you thought about fitting a slushbox? A torquey 2.7 in a cab with a switchable auto would be a nice combination - I guess that's what B7 is up to with his white one.
