EP. 16 My BMW E30 Restoration - Getting my E30 on the floor after 2 years!

- Episode 16, this is the final episode for my 'Parts to Pavement' series.
The car is finally back on the floor after 2 long years of weld repairs and restoring all the underside components.
All restoration videos for each component, including underside work are in the added playlist.
I have decided to leave the car on wheel skates so I can easily maneuver the car if required, hopefully this will not happen as much as it used to!
A few things left to do on the underside still, this will be revisited later on.
A big thanks to my good friend Ant who helped me install these components over the last couple days, check out his great e30 project on Instagram: / ant_rowling

A person can’t really appreciate a fully restored classic until you see it done… makes a guy wonder why he’s into cars in the first place haha awesome video
Appreciate the comment!!
Massive achievement, you must be really pleased with how its coming together. Look forward to seeing it finished
Appreciate the comment, yes it’s really starting to feel like I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!
Your videos don't get the view's they deserve, you should be up in the millions. great work.
It’s a shame right, Kieran
Congrats on the milestone! Can't wait to see what comes next with the engine stuff. 🥳
Thanks dude! Trying my best to catch you up!!
I just stumbled upon this build late at ep 16. Time to watch them all! 😎
Cool as dude! Glad to hear it🫡🫡
What a dream assembling everything with the chassis upside-down on the jig!
100% worth the time fabricating the jig!
Dang Bro, this looks sick!!!!

Great job mate

Cracking work mate she looks stunning
Many thanks as always🫡
First time doing brake lines? You've done a great job.
Glad you think so! It was initially very frustrating, but soon found the rhythm
That is so beautiful, every zinc plated bolt 🙌 must be so relieving to finally have it on its wheels, speechless
The best way! Yes a great feeling, cannot wait to start the next step
Like from Ukraine ❤
Awesome work man! this thing is goint to be beautiful!
Hell yeh!
Unbelievable job!
I wish my bmw e30 coupe 325ix was this clean for rust. looking forward for more :)
Mine definitely had a lot rust, you can see that in the previous videos
@@BadE30I see.
Love your Work =)
Thank you man🫡
Seriously impressive...
🎉 great progress! Respect for working in such a cold weather outside 😂 dedication 👍
Thanks dude! Pretty sure it didn’t get over 1° for the duration of this video!
Thats looking awesome. Great job 👍
Thank you!
that is going to be the best E30 in the country, if it isn't already!...superb mate
Thanks as always Matt🤝
Coming along nicely can't wait to get started on my 2 door 😅
Thanks man! Good luck with your project
Awesome progress! Looking forward to the engine build!
Cheers dude, yeh it’s going to be a fun task
Amazing work as usual, there's still a long way to go but I bet getting it onto its wheels almost feels like the home stretch?
Would love to see this in the flesh
100% can see the light at the end of the tunnel now, does feel great!
Nice build mate, good work 💪🏼
Thanks!🫡
Next time out the steering rack bolts from top of the car to the bottom. In case the nut is loosing, the bolt will stay in place, and you can feel it, now if the nut come loose, the bolt will fall to the ground
@@dhstube for the usual job this is how I do it, however you’re unable to remove the bolt if it is upright due to the engine being in the way. So the correct way is to have them bolt head down, this is also how it is from factory!
@@BadE30 you're right, I forget to check photos os my ex-e30 m3 and yes, bolts are installed from botton.
Very nice project some serious work done so far , we’re the fuel hard lines expensive from BMW?
Thanks! More to do too.
They were about £50 each, which I think is good value with them being ready to install
Looking amazing, are you using 280mm discs or the 310mm?
Thanks! 280mm so they go under 15” wheels, always liked the smaller wheels with big tyres
Yes same I had 16 and changed for 15, I want to buy wilwood in the future but I saw a e30 with the 310mm already that is why I was wondering which one you had@@BadE30
Did you get heat shields refinished or bought repro ones?
All genuine bmw items! All still available dude
@@BadE30 awesome thanks✍️
What engine you putting in?🤔
Bmw s38b36 from an e34 m5!
