Pictures and details from reassambling the boot, hood, doors, trim, lights.

All the interior will be moidified with black headliner, new carpets, recaro's and all new instruments in the dashboard.

The colour  on the car is Porsche Continental Orange, but inside the coupe, and under the car, is painted with Epoxy. Great thanks for an exellent paintjob to the local spraying shop  "Bil og Industrilakkering"

In front, the struts are modified Alpina's from a 2002tii with negativ camber. The rear trailing arms are modified E21 323i's, and the diff and output shafts are from E21 too.

In front: E21 323i vented discs and E12 528i calippers. Rear: All E21 323 discs and calippers.

The gearbox is the Getrag 240 5-speed from E30 and E28's with the M10 engine. It requires some modifications in the chassis to get it in place.  

All the wires, switches, relays and the fusebox are removed from the car. The car wil be fitted with an EFI management system, and therefore I decided to rebuild all the electric wiring in the car. The battery is moved to the trunk, and the fusebox located inside the glove box

The original M10 2,0tii will be totally rebuilt to be equipped with the BSE EFI system and the Garett T3 turbo. I'll try to keep, and rebuild the original tii intake manifold to make the engine look most like the original.

The engine modifications demands cold air from an intercooler, oilcooler for the motoroil, and higher capacity on the cooling system. From the start, the plan was to use an E36 radiator, but there are some new things coming up. More info later.

It's quite fantastic that originalparts, that was made for a car produced in just 1600 examples (2002turbo), are still available as stock at the BMW dealers. My car will look just like the original 2002turbo when finished, exept for the paint and interior.

After a lot of grinding and coating, this chapter is now finished.... I hope!

The frontpiece and the front floors were the most rustdamaged places, but not more than we could fix. The frontfenders, doors and frontpiece were purchased new from the local BMW dealer.

All removable parts were removed, and it's just the clean shell left before repairing the rust damages.

The car was a 1975, originally a 1502, and the first owner had the car for 27 years. He did'nt drive the car in winter season, and the total miles on the car was just 65000.
