    I got the rear end mocked up and sitting at ride hieght. I test fit the wheels that came off the car the motor is from. I'm sold on the tires. Still up in the air about the wheels. 26x11 tires look real good and fit perfect

                  It's an experience to see it in person.

                    one of the crazier builds to come out of milwaukee as of late. 

                    i also saw pictures of an ls7 powered e30 m3 getting built in the Germantown area

                        No, it's not. Belongs to a guy named Sam. I picked up my e36 from him a few years ago. Crazy build. Back to the real topic, this e21 is really coming along nicely.

                                Long time no update. TO say there is a lot going on with it is an understatement. If anyone would like to stop by, I'll be here most of the weekend. We are also in the process of launching a website for our shop that will have the build thread on it.

                                    Exciting!!! How are you prepping the chassis for paint? Just sand and degrease?
