Originally I was going to do something like a 2jz or s14, but now I'm pretty set on buying another older bmw 1980's 318 or 320 with the same engine (4cyl) except they have fuel injection and 5 speed. Pulling it from the car rebuilding it and hopefully if the funds are around slap a big turbo and megasquirt on it. I would be very content with around 200hp since this car is so small and weighs nothing.

 

Soo nice!

What color are you looking at painting again? I recall seeing it, but i can't remember...

This will definitely be my screen saver once it is finished

 

black, but still up for debate I'm not too concerned with color yet just trying to get her running

I would be stoked if it ever was screensaver worthy.

 

Heist; nice sportscar man, you really make me nostalgic for a motorhead I knew 46 years ago (passed on).

I was a "kid"; he was amazing with his many cars, guts and skill. I learn so much then and I feel that way again now.
I could never figure out then how he knew so much. Hard work and passion! Like you.

You look like a young guy but your a mechanical superman with metal in the simple facilities that you have to work with. Thanks for the blog.

Keep cutting, filling and smoothing the BMW2002 looks amazing!

 

Thats probably the best compliment I have ever received toro thank you!

 

Some dudes have lot's of money and just don't get it.

Yea, he had his fun, you'll have yours. We others, well we stand back, drop jawed amazed and wish we had the guts.

 

such a awesome build. For never creating fender flares, they have turned out great. Because you have a gold face/polish lip wheel set up, I think a metallic/pearl black would make everything just pop.

Took a trip to vegas so everything got put on hold. Nice break, but I came home to her over heating. Ended up picking up a new thermo didn't work still. Now I have pulled out the pump and I'm waiting for another thermo and pump.

Anyways good news is I got new yoks for the rear . I'm not that huge on stertch, always just like a light stretch, but this look is really growing on me. Profile of the car is finally almost even. I will get some full shots tomorrow, but this is just a teaser for now !

Crusty. The pump looks just as bad...

new, but still dead out of the box...


new tires

I seen a fresh 2002 at the shore this past weekend!! Can't wait till u finish this!!

 

Wow making lots of progress Kevin!

 

I'm not going to make it

The thermo and pump are dead. I swear this car is full of lovely surprises. Luckily I have people I can get rides from for a week in most of my classes haha. Should have it moving by next friday!

The stance is almost a go too ! on a positive note finally. Just need to get smaller spacers drop her a little more. (don't mind the front gap raised it to sand)

 

Damn you car!!!! hehe. Mmmmm finally standing on all 4's though! good stuff right there

 

Nice fitment bro, hard work paying off
