Again, well done with the restoration projects. I thought I took a lot of photos to remind me of where stuff goes, but your photo albums are huge and a good resource for others to work from.
I really don't know how you have the patience. Do you know when the show is in Finland? My dad has lived there for over 10 years and it would be nice to drive out there for the show in my E21. Done it before in 1997, but in a MK1 Renault 5 GTL! Went all round Norway and Sweden too and only cost me £100 to buy. Wouldn't buy another one again though.....

Absolutely gorgeous cars, well done matey!

I have a Baur to refurb, I will have to try and get it about 50% as good as yours, in which case it will be perfectly good!

Congratulations on two beautiful cars! I admire your dedication and attention to detail.

Wish my two E21's looked half as good!

Thanks for the support guys!
Seats are old but they are retrimmed with genuine leather. However we tried to preserve original looks as much as possible. Carpet and rear window shelf are new OEM parts. BMW still have them! :shock:
Now the intrior looks exactly as I wanted it to be 8)
The progress:
2004 - terrible
Image

2005 - eee... not quite right
Image

2006 - 2007 - not so bad but relatively worn
Image

2008 - Perfect!
