Outstanding :shock: I didn't think the front windshield needed to come out to replace the headliner, thought that the front header panel was where it ended :-k Viktor, can you please advise [-o< I realize that as you did a full repaint, the front windscreen was removed, but just want to verify :lol:

Impressive work on that shifter boot Viktor

In fact, I'd love to hear more about that headliner

Perhaps you covered that in your thread, I'll go back and look

Hope spring is not too far away for you

Paul, looking very good

Craig, the M6 would be Cinnabar Red, not Henna

vintageracer, here's a set of Hartge long tube headers for M30B34, should work

I'd wanna see a pic of those first, however

Kurtamine, honestly gonna be about a year before I have to decide, next smog check will be spring 2020 :-& I now know where I can pay an "extortion fee" to have the car pass the equipment check, just not sure that I want to go through this every 2 years :-? Shipping to FL would not be cheap either [-X

Joser, think I'll actually move this to the "tech articles" forum, so please add your progress as you move along [-o< I've tried this once before as well, but wound up having a pro do the job #-o It was a section that had 2 layers of sheet metal, claimed it was very tough to deal with :-({|= Cool ca...

vintage, gonna move your post to the "Wanted" forum, think that's where you want it :-? And BTW, regarding the headers, you need to indicate what MY or chassis type, as headers for E28 based will not fit an E12 series I 6er [-X Interesting that you are looking for long tube headers, I "may" have a s...

Hey you guys in the UK, any update on Ron

No replies since Christmas eve

Please keep us posted

new kid, you might want to add what MY you are looking for, or at least series I or series II, E12 or E28, however you want to spin it :-? Issue is, the floor pans are very different and seats from one version won't simply interchange with the other [-X Think I would also narrow down your location a...

Wishing a VERY Merry Christmas, a prosperous and happy New Year, and best wishes all, their friends, families and loved ones =D> I for one am extremely grateful to be part of this huge global community, it gives me great pleasure to say that I am proud to be here \:D/ Hope to "see" you all in the ne...

Hey brickwhite, check out this linky, oddly they only list an E addy

viewtopic.php?f=8&t=30222

Very positive feedback so far

Riley, been looking for the wiring diagram, nailed it

This should help, if nothing else, than to ensure proper point to point, etc.

Keep us posted, of course

Hello Peter, welcome to the madness =D> Nice that you have your own wheel collection website going, always nice to see different examples, part numbers, specs, etc. As far as using photos from the Big Coupe board is concerned, as a board moderator, I don't see any issues or problems doing that [-o< ...

6DIRTY5, 100 views and nobody replied, interesting :-k I was thinking that the rear muffler and tips was a piece from Remus, but looking at their website, they have gone away from that style of tips, if they ever had them :-? From the downpipes, appears to be all custom, IMHO [-( And no shit regardi...

Hey pathercity, important post and info, but I'm gonna move this to the "Interior" forum

Not to worry, I'll leave a shadow for ya

Lower right corner in the attached photo

As you can see, it's really a dual relay with 2 connectors, nothing to do with what's in the fuse box

Good call on hitting up the first fives website, those guys know their L-jet stuff

Hey Riley, reading along, as if :roll: I do have a couple of thoughts as well, although we all know that Brucey is king =D> Since you mention no spark at the plugs but not the condition of the dizzy cap and rotor, how do they look :-k The only item that has troubled me when having running problems w...

Well, here ya go

And our VIN's indeed are 4 apart, mine is 5555701

Please have your son reach out on the board for any and everything he needs, we're here to help

Thanks, proud papa \:D/ Ya know, many have tried to find out how many of this or that color combination were made, only to find out that this information is very hard to come by, if at all :-k Heck, even finding how many TOTAL were made in a given year can be difficult to find :shock: BTW, I've stil...

Riley, Brian "warned" me that you were coming back to the fold, earlier today :shock: So let me be the first to say, welcome to the madness, once again =D> I do recall that your color was just a bit "off", but no matter, it's all good \:D/ And just to show you that the green shark is still holding h...

you will have reached 10,000 posts

I for one consider the Big Coupe board very thankful for your dedication to answering all of these questions, with a vastly deep amount of knowledge that is far and above most, if not all of us

Cheers, to you, we're SO glad to have you

e24trapt, board moderator here, and I have to agree, no need for the F bombs [-X Frankly, we don't give a shit about cursing on the board, but that really wasn't necessary [-( brickwhite is doing a nice job of documenting and photographing his progress, and while it might be trivial for some to just...

Well, that's quite some ambitious work you've taken on there =D> Looks like you'll be dealing with some rust issues as well :cry: Depending on the file size of your photos, you should try to show them instead of just the links, bit of a PITA :-k Welcome and keep us posted, ready to hear about your m...

Jono, BMW never had a factory in East Germany, that side wasn't known for making anything of much value [-X so there must have been a West German BMW plant, as well as a East German plant for BMW then I am assuming? BMW headquarters is located in Munich, which was in West Germany, at the time :-k Th...
