No updates, I have had a busy year since last March...

Family and work took a large bit of my time in 2009... When you have 5 kids, there are always something to do... :wink:

BUT...

I have not given my hopes up...

The cars will be done...

I am thinking of selling all my performance bits for the M50 engine, and install a V8-lump with auto trans from a 540 instead...

I think that engine would fit more this car, as this car is a cruiser - not a racer...

If it's going to be built for style and comfort over performance you may as well stick with a nice m20 and save yourself some money.

OKI guys...

Been a long time since last update, I have been so busy that I have not had the time to even think about the e21. I guess the few guys of you in here that remember this car, believe that it has rusted away.... It has not, hehe...

But then a breakthrough, finally. I got hold of an old Car-O-Liner Jig, borrowed though...

So I blew the dust off the E21, and went into the deepest inner chamber in my garage - in the search of E21 parts...

Check this out:

This was done during a short time, and ofcourse.... The owner of the Jig needed it suddenly, so I had to take the e21 off again.

I will ofcourse get it back, but I did spend some time (that was needed aswell) on my e28 B7 Alpina. So I just throw in a pic of that car as it is today, just for fun.

Sorry about no comments to the pics, but I am sooo tired, and off for work again in just a few hours...

Hope you enjoy the pics...

(here's the E28 BTW... Fresh paint in the engine compartment, trunk, and doors...)

Thanks for the feedback guys.

The car will not be on the road soon. But hopefully I can manage to get some time off during winter, so that I can get the Car-O-Liner back home again - and get the chassis mounted and welded atleast.

Engine, suspension etc etc needs to be done during 2012/2013. I have a job with alot of travelling, 5 kids and not too much sparetime nor money. I do consider finishing the E28 in total first - and then fully consentrate all efforts and money for the E21 afterwards. The E21 is my baby, and I do not wanna rush anything. That baby is gonna be a jewel, and that takes time.
