Howdy folks!

I know it's been a bit, but don't worry, I've been busy and working on reviving the E21 323i all this time. I'm at it for 2 weeks now.

This piece of destruction is the hardest, worst condition car I ever attempted to revive. It was sitting for at least 26 years and everything is destroyed. The cooling system is, well, disgustingly disgusting. Never seen so much varnish in the fuel system...

Anywho, I'm done with filming and I'm starting to edit the video, hopefully I'm done in the next couple of days. Whether I got it running or not -- I don't want to spoil the episode yet and you'll just have to wait and see. As you can see, a bit of fire was involved. Going to be a long episode! 

Project Marbais, E30 320i, I resolved the idling issue and took it to TUV for inspection. It failed! But it's actually overall good news. The rear drum breaks decided not to drum anymore and the rear right cylinder leaked brake fluid. I'll need to refresh them and then go back for them to verify that, but everything else is great. German documents have been made and just as important, the car meets all criteria for oldtimer status and will be getting historic H plates!
Not sure when the next video on it is going to be, but probably pretty soon. I'm also trying to get close enough paint to repaint the damaged doors. I tried 6 samples so far and none are a close match so I'll need to keep looking.

Thanks for your patience and stay on your toes!

Seemed like a perfect opportunity to pull out a classic Beavis & Butthead clip
