Re: E21 327i, 1980
Have bought a Subaru Impreza a few months ago and that took all my time. Will start again on my E21 in a few weeks...

It all started with buying a nice S50B30!
First of all cleaning up the engine!


Sandblasted valve cover and E34 525i sump

Some white paint

some red paint

and a few other colours

In the meanwhile my M20B27 engine was for sale. Sold it to a forum member. Now the real work could begin...

Thanks! I still have more than 100 pictures from the progress. Will post more When I find the time. I'm currently doing the last bits. Want to take it to the sharknose meet! Tomorrow I have to do some modifying at the bonnet. That should be the last thing to finish it!
