You’ll have to show me how to rebuild the switches, glad it helped solve the problem.

This morning one of my co-workers had to show me a pic of a cool BMW that was following him this morning. I was like, "Oh, that's Jason." 

I saw him actually. He was struggling to get a picture in his rear view mirror turning into the industrial park, then I could see him snapping away as I passed.

It's super easy. I did the first switch, that's why they worked for a little while then went back to drive Jason insane mode. At that point Didn't realize that was the actual problem and I was afraid to break the contacts. Out of all 3 switches I have, each one is different internally as well. I will post some pictures of the insides and what fails and how to fix it for future reference.

Drove this two weekends ago to the last C&C and the weather was amazing. I invited my friend Andy to come meet me and shoot this car and the 2002. Here are a few of the shots he captured.

I intend to use these shots among the other 50+ he captured to list this car on BAT in the next coming weeks. I feel that the time I have spent bringing this car back and fixing its quirks were well worth it to me, and it's time to let someone else appreciate and enjoy it and at the same time give me more space to work on my E30. I have come to the realization that I will just continue fixing and improving this car if it sticks around as I have a hard time deeming anything "complete". If anyone is interested in purchasing the car before I list it, feel free to message me, I rather sell the car local to someone I know for less, than deal with listing fees and shipping.

This car has officially been accepted by BaT and will be listed in the coming weeks. I have been putting together all of the documentation and building the photo gallery. I am still open to local offers if anyone has interest.

Well... the pictures of the paint flaking off of front valance of this car were driving me nuts. Fed up, I decided to fix it and toss some paint on it. So far it's been sanded and the holes filled. I will paint it this week.

Paint is on and waiting to install!

Next I have a trick pinstripe kit I borrowed from a friend to refresh the worn striping. I will share with you guys how that goes in detail, it's pretty cool.

Pictures of it installed....

I decided to start painting and undercoating the the car since it was the last thing I haven't really cleaned up.

Well I did take an extra day to post them.

Well just for fun, here are some picture of the new pin stripes, underside, and some other photos of the car before we say farewell.

How easy was posting the car up on BAT? My dad and I are selling our 318ti in the spring and plan on posting it up there after we get it detailed and such.

Pretty easy. They did mess out the content a few times so there were a few revisions before I gave it the thumbs up.

I would LOVE to find one. But I am trying to stay away from getting more cars that I plan to "keep."  This one was totally worth keeping, but I didn't really have a use for it and it was a distraction from other projects( E30) that I wanted to focus on. If I did happen to find a new keeper at this point, its likely to be a wagon.
