BMW E6 2002 (Turbo) Touring 1971 (new project)

I’m so excited to tell you about my new blog about the resto-mod of the BMW 2002 Touring (Turbo). Don’t worry, I’ll keep informing you about the progress here, but if you’d like, check the page http://www.bmw2002tt.com/ .
I have also decided to offer you an option - as we’ve known each-other for awhile now - to send me your subscription request (with your name and e-mail) as a PM and I’ll add you on the exclusive pre-subscription list I am preparing. What does this mean? Not much, but you might like it. :) Each month I am planning to send a short note with the latest updates on my car with links to my blog stories.
Looking forward to your subscriptions ;)

Saw some tourings at Sharknose this year got me thinking about your build.

Cheers

I had to choose priorities, working 8-16 as a computer software developer, from 16-21 in the workshop refurbing wheels, time for the project cars was less and less.

So the decision in 2017 is to let go of the 8-16 job, go all in with the alloy wheels refurb (which I'm doing part time since 2010) and start all the project in 2018 with full power and time.

You can't have everything, priorities and reality checks are often the hardest.

To cut it short, in 2018 I will have a few hours per day for my hobbies and project cars.
