meet elders that double my age,...
Missed my E9, and reminded myself that you always need to double the orgnal time the painter estimated it would take to paint your car.
Impressive, sure beats my poor paint booth

Ok, seams like you need a bit longer than me.
Do you paint then in 2 ways? (Back side)

Breiti
Yes I did, I painted back first then flipped. Your method would have been far faster. I also had to battle with the wind doing it outside. Not ideal but am happy with the results
Finally finished the electrical shut off valve for the cooling system .
Made a electrical switch very simple to keep it beside the original electrical wiring.
The valve is a three way valve. Normally closed for the cooling water to the heating radiator in the car. And always flow of cooling water from the cilinder head to the waterpump.

Brought my Petri steering wheel to VSR to have it recovered in leather.
Stan, do they do that themselves? I need to recover my E24 steering wheel.
Google Chris Scow. Leatherwheels.com I believe. His work is impeccable and very reasonable. He has done 2 s.wheels for me. a shift knob and handbrake handle. I was better than well pleased. I know he was having some problem with his hands last year but give him a call. He wasn't charging any extra for stitch type and thread color
Which E24wheel do you need Have 1or 2 in great condition somewhere in the pile
M Technic 1.
I don't have one with the "M" logo on it Could you either post a picture here or PM one to me?
the M technic wheel didn't have the ///M logo, it had the (small) 3 stripes on it. same wheel was stock on the e30 m3
32331155861 I have this wheel but without the stripes. I will post a picture later By the way the 3stripe insert can still be bought new
Here is mine: https://photos.app.goo.gl/b4tDtK1qV9XoXLu26
If you have one in excellent condition leather wise I would buy it.
Thanks
interesting
do you have details about this installation?
it would be worth a thread itself
I will write on the DIY
Thread 'DIY - Heater Bypass Valve'
https://e9coupe.com/forum/threads/diy-heater-bypass-valve.10824/
So we keep the information together.
Will put it there in a few day’s
