      Car is looking good!

        Over fenders. Notice his quarter panels are much wider? That's why he said he was waiting for the front fenders=)

          Just because I have stock wheels doesn't mean my build is atypical.

          The "overs" are very subtle. Thanks for keeping me hip, Earl. I always like seeing updates on this car and partly because its an "atypical" build as GunGun said

                  Can you call it a build if you don't do anything to it? 😉
                  But for real, fix your car. I wan't to do boosty things with it.

                    Damn, I am digging the subtle look of those over fenders, but more importantly I cant believe I actually don't mind that wing on there. +1 for being original but not absurd.

                      Finally found a couple hours away from school to get some work done. Ally my wheel parts are here and ready to assemble. Quarters cut,sealed and ready to rivet my overs on. Front fenders are almost finished and wrap color is picked out and ready to order once i get my taxes back. Pictures because i take pride it doing stuff the right way!

                                      This is my old car.  Nice to see my old car still has life.  Here is my story with it: http://jimroal.com/cars/bmw.htm .  My mother inlaw bought this car used back in 1986.  I think she was the second owner.  She lived in Richland WA at the time which is a dry climate.  They moved to Las Vegas in 1988 and the car stayed in her garage most of the time.  In 2000 she gave it to us and I drove it from Las Vegas to Peoria, IL.  IT had an automatic transmission from the factory and it was very slow.  0-60 time was 12s.  I have a video on that website showing it.  One day I was pulling away from a light and I needed to get in the other lane soon so I floored it to get in front of a diesel pickup.  He blew my door off.  I had had it.  I happened to have a turbo sitting in my garage and I decided this car needed it badly.  I fabricated my own header, modified the L-Jetronic with Mustang fuel injectors and a Thunderbird VAF, and the rest of the mods.  Very little money invested.  Pretty much doubled the power and cut the 0-60 time in half.  The car was now fun.  I hit a deer with it in 2003.  Sheet metal damage, not major.  Sold it to a friend and coworker Dan.  Dan repaired the body damage and drove it for several years.  It blew a head gasket so Dan installed the spare motor I gave him with the car.  He put it back to completely stock.  Dan sold it to another friend and coworker Cort who installed the Megasquirt.  Cort planned to put the turbo system back on too but never did.  He sold the car to another coworker Ethan who installed the 2nd Megasquirt and put the turbo back on.  The exhaust manifold I had made cracked so when Ethan had the car I did some warranty work to repair it.  The car ran great but Ethan wanted more.  He upgraded the manifold and installed a much larger intercooler. Ethan had the car a few years and sold it.
