Nice one man! It is such a bitch doing wiring and that looks gnarly. Even just repairing existing wires. I've been trying to think of a way to tidy mine up but i have no idea what i'm doing!

Get that rust sorted too!

Great job on getting it all back to working order.
The hole does look a bit daunting.

Those wiring photos, man that looks tough.
Best of luck getting it all sorted.

It's a hard job but I bet it's so satisfying when things start working again. Well done.

Cheers guys. Yeah electrical gremlins are definitely not my favourite thing to fix, can be very frustrating trying to diagnose, especially when previous owners have done some incredibly dodgy work.... It will be so nice to have everything working again though. Money has been the main thing slowing me down lately, I've landed a new job though so hopefully can get stuck back into it

After this wiring and interior is sorted I have some big things planned. Let's just say I'll be stepping it up a level. 400hp+ maybe?

Awesome work, I will definitely be giving you a call when I get around to wiring on my future e30!

This is such a good build, lots of dedication and skill. Subbed for future updates

[Ben J]

Cheers man. Sorry for lack of updates guys, lots of work has been done and I've been super busy moving house. For now though we can see it chilling in its new home

[Dubstein]

Another sweet garage. Do want.

Photo doesn't even show half of it haha so much bigger than my current place. Keen as to finish getting it all set up ready for some serious work to start

[TeeheeOner]

beautiful build mate! i had a 190E 2.5L and was looking to restore it... but ended up selling it any updates? subbed.

[Ben J]

Cheers mate! Super motivated and have been spending a lot of hours turning spanners on this thing lately, been really slack with photos or updates but the interesting stuff is about to start so I'll dig out the real camera and try and post some real updates up when I get a computer again.

For now though, some teasers

[sports racer]

The wheels and motor I can understand but the sheetmetal has me puzzled???

Custom panelwork?

[Ben J]

Not quite that extreme. A bunch of rust repairs on the floors, firewall and tranny tunnel, and giving the engine bay a bit of a shave. Probably bought a bit much steel but they didn't want to sell less than a full sheet and its cheap anyway, have heaps to practice with now
