Bela!
Great works you done with your car!!!!
I'm impressed.
Regarding to the photos, you are “almost” finished and maybe have done the first test run?
I see there are a lot of new parts. Do you follow any budget for this restore?
I believe a lot of us (me included) do not keep track with the costs to restore an E9.
(I've saved all the receipts with my restoration so far, but do not dear to summarize them…) Perhaps when the car is 100% done, I will do that.
Bela, keep on posting pictures to influence all others on this forum.

Beautiful restoration...I would be afraid to take it out. One question...if its a CSi that means its european delivery...didnt' all those cars have the rear fog light next to the reverse lights? Mine does...so I am wondering if its country specific. Mine was an Italian delivery.

block, exhaust manifold and power steering
Great looking car. I currently have everything out of my engine compartment and doing an engine rebuild. What did you do with your engine block, exhaust and power steering? They look black in your pictures. Were they sandblasted and then painted? Thanks. Jeff

Hi,
thanks for the comment.
The exhaust system is new(BMW).It's was cut in pieces for transport (before I bought it) so the welding is painted.
I don't know what exactly was done to the other parts,I'll ask the guy who is restoring it for me.Yes they're black.
