Hi guys, i have an 1984 318i and im creating this thread to document my build and ask for help when the need arises. I found this car literally under a tree and "full" of dirt and trash.

Things done:

-wash
-new front suspension parts and brakes
-repaired instrument cluster
-repaired the crater in the battery tray

Still to do:

-Clean and align headlights / backlights
-clean some rust spots
-new backseats seats / seat belts
-see why the engines doesnt pull right
-install z3 shifter and my own dssr linkage

In the future:

-billy sports + H&R
-poly bushes
-stainless exhaust
-saab or volvo turbo
-draw and make some coilovers supports in sw

Heres some pictures:
