Nice Paul, these are next on my list after I sell some of those wheels I told you about

no bodywork updates as of yet im afraid, as is always the case when i take on these resto jobs i have become very busy again but luckily Paul is patient and understanding, wish all my customers were like him. there wont be many tasty massive chunks of metal missing type shots of this car either as its dissapointingly solid lol.

Ermmmmmmm lovely

Ordered these over new year, just had to wait for the pipes to be ready before shipment.

These should help the turd stop a bit better now

Cool project, glad you like the WMS stoppers as well.

If you do get EBC Reds in the end.......you might want to check they don't clash with your paint!

[DanThe]

They will be sent to beardys gaff for colour coding

[e30topless]

nice Paul! bet you can't wait to bolt them on !!

[keri-WMS]

They will be sent to beardys gaff for colour coding

Huh, as long as it's just the pads!

I'll have you know WMS only sanctions black.....other than the limited edition "Motorsport Noir" spec!

It's all about radar signature you see!

[Simon13]

how much were the shafts?! i'm guessing not the the £350 that bmw want per side!

[DanThe]

You can buy a pair of these from GKN for the price of 1 BMW shaft

[town325i]

i thought you had a pair re-furbed?

[DanThe]

They were crap so they kept them

[The_Diddler]

nice Paul! bet you can't wait to bolt them on !!

Indeed

[DanThe]

Any progress reports from Matt yet?

[The_Diddler]

Any progress reports from Matt yet?

Not yet, will ring him on Thurday, i have a little present waiting at the dealers that he's gonna need

[beardymat]

its only going to be a lack of progress report im afraid so behind at the minute its untrue but i can see a little light at the end of the tunnel.

[DanThe]

Oh well, at least its in the right place

[popey7676]

[Rav335uk]

There is some quality cars getting built on the zone at the minute. I think everyone deserves a big pat on the back.

Well done to everyone making a top effort

[Dezzy]

Saw Matt today at the Midlands Meet, some pictures will be available soon

[Dezzy]

GOOD!

[beardymat]

Looks like id better stick up a couple of pics to keep the vultures at bay

i have started by cleaning up the patches on the rear panel to find out how far we need to go, just four small repairs so not worth ripping the whole rear end apart to fit a replacement panel.











dont worry paul, ill send you all the pics i take so you can keep them yourself.

[Rav335uk]

Don't forget his new colour choice "Nissan Micra Pink"

[Dezzy]

No not another none standard colour change

[The_Diddler]

Thanks for posting up Matt, will pm email addy for you

Looks like an E30 restoration garage now, how much does the council charge you for taking away all the rusty old metal, must cost a fortune

Great to see things progressing, hopefully not to much rust to remove along the way.
