I was inspired by Mike Valder's very good looking 318i for a few years ago.
So when this one arrived in the neighbourhood I was sold... (the car also
)
The car was left behind by a german some years ago and it was an 1982 316 automatic with only 82000 km.
This car was well equipped to be an 316, tinted window, el.mirrors on both sides, pop-up windows at the rear, org. radio ++++
I have some experience building VW-Audi's so this should be a breath of fresh air and the possibility to do something diffrent.
I really enjoyed the color of this BMW but it was 1 problem. Since this was an german car I couldn't get it approved for norwegian roads, in fact this car was illgal in Norway...
But hvite indicators was bought to start with...
I also bought some bbs-wheels on this forum, but the was placed on this car kalled "Joppe" instead.
The car has beed stored inside until I decided what to do with it, the answer came earlier this year then I was contacted by a guy who wanted to sell his 82 316.
He needed some parts from it, but since I had the other BMW it was ok. I now had an Norwegian car with only small rust and 109 000 km on the meter.
The color on this one was Savannah-beige, not perfect but it will do...
Just before I went up north to my hometown I decided to send it to the painter, and today it's finished.
I'm gonna put all the good stuff from the other BMW and 60/60mm suspention and BBS Replica's with gold senter is on it's way.
Here is a pitcure right before paint...
