I have only just found this thread after just getting myself an E30, absolutely amazing.... Well done, can't wait to start on the bodywork on my car now, but hope it's not quite that extensive!
Keep up the good work, you are an inspiration to many!

Just read your update dude. Seems like your doing what I'm planning. I can only mine is done to this standard.
First point of call for me is rebuild the engine and get the bodywork up to scratch. Then onto the underside... then into the interior and final touches. Looking at many thousands
But it will be worth it!
Hope your finished product is worth it and you enjoy it!
Oh, and how does it feel to be the first one getting a btb3???

Nice one Dan0 if only mine looked like the quality item you've got there. I don't know if you remember but I bought them sports seats off you about 18 month's ago and was wondering if you'd still got that diamond black sport?
