It does mate, the Sterling shell had a few issues when originally re shelled, had some those repaired but rust came back, combined with some really nasty winters before I started garaging the car.... still, we got 8 years motoring out of it so not all bad.B7 wrote:That just looks so different from when it was on my drive a few weeks back!
And it must feel good now all that gear is finally in a completely rot free shell Oz. Think back, this was exactly the conversation we had on the phone a couple of years back when I found that white low miles 316 up north.
This time we start with a much much better shell, and garaged for the winter, its all good.
Remember that convo, just bad timing money wise, all worked out in the end though

B7's Motto. "If it's French, BURN IT!!!!!!"
Had this issue (I think) on my 325i auto, never solved, 2 diffs and wheel bearings later put on 4 poster and told - diff!? Sold it and now my guess would be prob bearing? or transmission output bearing? Interested to see if this gets sorted, good luck.
Here you go Trev...
Had this for 5 years before that trip, loved that crusty old turd.
Untold amount of hours spent by quite a few zoners so it was running for that trip.
Here she is on the way out....
