Flame throwers

I will probably make some metal filler panels or something that takes a bunch of time.

You know there are factory plastic covering panels that are less then $20 a set. P/N's 51711873623 and 51711873624. They look good.

Yes, but I could waste a lot of time making some myself.

That's the spirit!

If I did not love beer so much, I'd be right there with your level of awesomeness.

The car is looking great and the attitude to match

I love how you've thrown the 'budget' word out the window

Insomnia is good for more than TV

Thanks, a lack of sleep has fueled many a creative all nighters and helped to hone a skill or two.

Having a life does sound intriguing though.

Also, the idea of a budget died as soon as I decided to euro convert it... It might have to be a keeper at least for a bit longer

Today I spent a few hours adjusting my valves and cleaning up the engine bay a bit, I also put my freshly painted front bumper together and mounted it... I will need to pull the front end off again to weld the US front bumper rubber trim holes but I am going to hold off for a while on that.

It is a miller setup.

I wouldn't say last minute but I decided black would look less modern and more aggressive.

You do fine work. I especially like the clear glass hood.

I ordered new fog light delete panels, all new under hood decals and insulation today. I now consider this my car.

Yea you did!

I polished it too much, the hood that is.

Well I relayed the order anyway! Thanks Lloyd!

I had my extra set of hood hinges sand blasted today, now I am painting them along with the bottom side of the new hood.

It looks like this build thread is over, on the last few pics my camera decided to stop working.

I love you.

Thanks, I'm not so bad either.

Doh! I do hate a cliffhanger!

Some great product - it's quite inspirational to watch you work.

Unlike E28s, they still make cameras. And sell them.

Indeed. I could donate a vintage digital camera if that would help keep this thread going.

True, but I'm spending all of my money putting this silly car together... A good friend of mine is giving me one of his spares.

Just send yours to him, you're welllll over your quota of pics for the year.

Nope, this thread is dead.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Fine, I will keep up the whoring.

Today I got my new hood pads, vent pads and seals and euro fog light delete panels. I love my local dealer and parts pals that enable my addiction!

A coke habit would probably be cheaper but it's fun getting piles of new parts to keep my mind off of how lame my personal life is

I miss you Brent! So please don't let this thread die...
