Sorting a few minor bits and after a 5-year restoration she'll finally be completed. A long road due to time/money/outsourcing constraints but pleased overall with the outcome. She's not a concourse car - rather I built a driver to be enjoyed (and I'd have probably done a few things differently if budget had allowed).

So here's the laundry list of upgrades.

  1. New paint - a dry car with zero rust anywhere, removed front side reflectors
  2. Retrofitted an e24 front air dam (would raise it a few more inches in hindsight)
  3. New interior - leatherette - going for Gobi
  4. Newly refurbished dash by Just Dashes
  5. Newly refurbished woodwork by Madeira Concepts
  6. Euro bumpers
  7. e28 5-speed
  8. e28 window motor upgrades
  9. New door/window rubber
  10. Nearly complete tool kit (with red handled screw driver!)
  11. Dual Webers
  12. Momo steering wheel - pending refinish
  13. New tires - has Bilsteins
  14. New front brakes
  15. Strut tower brace
  16. New Sanden a/c system
  17. Blaupunkt Stereo/speakers
  18. New Coco mats
  19. More little bits than I can recall - lock pulls, window switches, etc.
I need to adjust the front and rear bonnets to get them level. Welcome any insights there - as well as feedback/constructive criticism. Thanks for all the help. This is very knowledgeable and helpful group. - Tom

Well, as cool as I thought it looked, I removed the e24 air dam as I scuffed it 3x in 2-days thanks to (*&%$#) Oklahoma City streets! Will include w/ sale in April - hopefully to someone living off Highway 1 (like I used too.) :-( :). (Example pic).
