Oh........wait a moment. I Think i used for primer and filler 6-7- ltr. for all parts............basic-color i will need completely also 6-7 ltr. underfloor an inside included. But this is only the finishing paintjob.

Hello, the original colour call "brasilbraunmet." ....the BMW-paint-code is 154, now the respray is also an BMW-original-colour from the E21 in 1981; code 152 (zypressengrün).

We will see, when the job is done.......

Hi Peter,

perfect ..........in the beginnig of my restoring i told too "I'll have time".......I think at first to make the works in about 3-4 Years....now I'm working almost every day ...because I have a lot of fun........

I was writing in the front of this topic: At time I worked 950 hours!.....A lot of time, but still funny!!!

I will look into your thread too, to see how your works go on......wich paint / colour your car get??? the original paint?

greetings Stephan

Hey Stephan,

Nice to read that you already have worked almost a thousand hours. Keeps me going hahaha.

The colour of the car wil stay "polaris" as it is now. Otherwise i must change it also at the RDW in holland for the papers of the car.

But you will never know if my idea changes.

First I must find the adresses of companies which help me to galvanise the bolts etc.

And mayby I will also sandbeam ( wrong writing maybe) my car. This is not sure yet.

Greetings Peter V.

[Jekyll66]

Hi in germany it's not easy to find a company for galvanise parts for privat, but I have a good contact here now.....

Perhaps........when you get problems with finding comanys contact me per pm

greetings Stephan
