I'm back!
In 2009, I bought my first E9, a stock '72 2800, and did a bit of a restomod on it:

When a friend offered his amazing E30 M3 to me in 2010, I couldn't resist, so I sold the E9 and have been kicking myself ever since.
Well yesterday I bought a '74 CS, and it will be the biggest project I've ever taken on. It's a stripped shell and a dozen boxes of parts. (Many of you may have seen it on Richmond VA Craigslist). The shell has been completely redone, all new sheet metal, chassis reinforcements, and is practically ready for paint! But it's those dozen boxes of parts that are going to take the effort!
E9 Purists can stop reading now. Plans for this car include Grp 2 flares, an S54 engine, E46M3 front suspension, and E28 rear. This will be a street car, so no cage, and I hope to have a comfortable interior (with AC). I'll start a build thread soon, excited! Max
