            They have red on them, so yes=) The tires come off tonight and then they will get disassembled so that the faces can get bored out by a friend.

                          So this needs a hair of updating. 

                          Just recently I purchased a set of BC's through Pat. I also purchased a full set of Condor bushings, Garagistic clutch and brake pedal bushings, modded knuckles, Rennstall Type 1 shift knob, Chasebays Handbrake, and SRS Concepts dual caliper brackets a while back with the insurance money from the Del Sol. 

                          Since the Beauty needs to go back to paint after I finally finish the undercoat, I definitely won't have it ready for Euro District. The plan is to now work on this during the week over the next 60 days so that it can potentially be ready to make the trip. Other than patching the floors it should be a pretty quick process.

                                Can't do much if the car has to go to paint and it is too far for me to go work on it during the week lol

                                It is also easier to get this on the road than to bend the front of my Del Sol back to shape alone

                                      The front of the e34 is mostly held together with bailing wire after tying the core support to a tree and putting the car in reverse to straighten it back out. I think you're being too picky.

                                        I got three fasteners away from dropping the rear subframe today. I ran out of time so it will be out tomorrow. 

                                        These look brand new right? Hahaha
