MAN WHAT A AMAZING CAR! I know its a lot of work i know its a lot of work! How many people can say they have a E34 M5! How many people can say they have a E34 M5 with M70 V12 conversion done to it? How many people can say they have a e34 M5 with a extremely rare 850 CSI driveline in it. 😅 Restore it as this is 1 of the most unique conversions ever! I know it's a lot of work but you got my attention and to be honest soon a lot of people will notice it very soon! Imagine what E39 M5 restorations would say! Save them all as long as we can!
Nice intro. That rust is really not bad. We’re just not used to it in California. Other than those front jack points, several days with a wire wheel will clean that up. Looking forward to updates.
I appreciate the vote of confidence. I always assume that if there is rust where I can see it, there is rust where I cant. Ill give the wire wheel a whirl and see what I can knock down.
I always wondered where the car went after it disappeared from Willz, so cool it pops back on a RUclips vid. If the oil is clean with no shavings I don’t see the need to rebuild the engine. Since you’re in Cali wouldn’t it need to be CARB certified? Scariest thing is the rust on the underbody.
I'm glad you were able to stumble across it here. Truthfully, I get enjoyment out of refreshing and rebuilding so that on its own is a motivating factor. When it comes to CARB, it retained all supporting emission equipment, has a US vin, and just needs original catalytic converters installed and it will pass. Its something that is up on the whiteboard, but may happen a little down the road.
That's both the worst and best E34 M5. I actually like the bumper markers on the E34. I park at meets/shows and leave my marker lights on. Mine are amber though. Amber for life. I guess you should be glad the valve covers keep the bolts from coming all the way out, huh
I have an opinion! With zero comprehension for how massive an investment in time and money it would be, you should totally restore it. Look forward to seeing your updates and what decisions you make.
What a sensational project ! Subscribed ! ❤
