Duncan's V37.......race car?
PranK replied to Duncan's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future. -

Nice. Its a shame I have to squeeze in behind the E39 on the driveway. I'm worried about how it will feel after being impaled.

So, I found my cover. And 12 hours later the replacement arrived. 🤷♂️

Yeah, not so easy. The front number plate mount goes into the opening to partially attach. You can see in this pic. Yes! I'll go handlebars around the plate.

Maybe a single length would make it look better. I might be able to push down the guts coming out of the holes too.

I put PPF on my new headlights which was easier than I expected. I have some for the X5 too because it's headlights are pristine for some reason and I dont think they'll stay that way. I also put some silver wrap on these number plate holes. The colour is not a match by any standard but I think it still improves things, what do you think?

My 1975 C110 Skyline Restoration

Good lord. Looks amazing, well done! -
Welcome back! Hows the V36?
-
I'm replacing the front tyres on the E39 tomorrow because one of them has a few gouges out of it. There is so much tread still on them but they're also 9 years old and the rubber is super hard. This falls within the guidelines of 10 years old that I've read which surprises me given their condition. I'm curious about whether you guys care about tyre age or just judge the tyre based on condition? How old would you consider too old?

Some of the BMW community feel it offers a fire resistance of some description but I'm not sure that's accurate.

I'm looking forward to seeing it on carsales for $2m.

Yeah, the E34 touring is like hens teeth. This one is really nice, she's a touch rough but we'll get there. Horrible, broken key buttons were irritating me so I bought some replacement buttons and new batteries. The pic makes them look gross still but it is such a difference. I accidentally broke a little bit of the new button on one of them by using a pick to get it in place. Super good service by the guys at Remote Pro who offer free shipping regardless of order. Hats off to them.

So, I think we'll still need some trial and error here. If a piece of content has the tags; wiki, r33, brakes it will display on 3 pages - wiki, r33 and brakes. So, maybe this will need something like 'wiki-r33-brakes' ? Note that open tagging is GONE in v5 - so authors cannot add tags to content. It will be up to us to add tags so the naming convention is also up to us.

But, do I have to? 😬

While doing my tailgate struts I found some rust. Also replaced my bonnet struts. Such a cool satisfaction with that job.
-
So I removed as much as I could from both sides. The shop vac did a great job of clearing 99% of it. I got it all as clean as I could and then absolutely drenched the whole lot in the rust converter. Tonight or tomorrow I'll hammer it again. The cavity must be close to 400mm in length and surprisingly I was able to get it right to the back. I'll quickly reassemble and then pretend I never saw it. I'll post pics (for me to ignore later) soon.

Looks great Pete! Sounds great in that video also.

Should have checked that. On the plus side, I got my Bluetooth adaptor.

Sorry the pictures suck. So hard to get camera and light in there
