    Default New Project......'82 BMW

    Well this was my wifes first car when she was 15yrs old. Her dad bought it for her and taught her how to drive in it. They fixed it up together, but unfornatly he past away due to a heart failure(only 37 & in great shape too )soon after she turned 16. Anywho, it had a headgasket go out on it, not long after that and has been sitting ever since. She doesnt want to ever get rid of it, and I totally agree. So now we are going to start to fix it up, and possibly mod. it a bit. Maybe a trackday or two along w/ some drifting, lol Her she is....'82 BMW 320i

    Lol, well my Julz said I could do whatever I wanted to it as long as it stayed the same color. So if it gets repainted, it will be the same color body wise its in decent shape, just needs alot of cleaning.

    Yeah the body doesn't look that bad at all bro, just needs new paint..... The only thing I would change would be the front bumper, I do not like the way they stick out like that. Good luck with it bro

    It appears to be a good canvas to work with, body looks very clean minus the paint.

    Post some progress pictures once you really get started with it, looking forward to seeing it progress E21's are fun little cars, my dad's had quite a few of them.
