Thanks Roy but it has not left the driveway yet. Should be ready for road test end of next week.

Todd,

that is a thing of beauty. As always, amazing craftsmanship and I can't wait to see some videos on the road.

I saw a couple of pics on the last page and ended up reading the whole thread,Bloody fantastic build mate!

Thanks for the kind words. Hoping to have it sorted out enough to drive by the end of next week.

Todd, I am so impressed with your skills to do this. Your E28 will be so awesome. I love the Bahama Beige too.

Regards,

Leonard

Thanks but it should be noted again that Sweeney did all of the metal fabrication.

I knew that because you have mentioned it many times along the way. Sorry I left him out.

Go Sweeney! You are the man.

Had the pleasure of viewing and hearing this well thought out and executed work of art last Friday. The level of detail is mind boggling. My thanks to Todd and his family for hosting us for a few hours as we blew through town on an BMW acquisition trip. The cops were only called once to his door due to the shady characters and vehicles Todd was fraternizing with that night.

Only drove it around the block but Holy Shit it is going to be an epic car!

Installed the new PS Pump and fixed the coolant leak. Still need to bleed the PS, brakes again, clutch again and the engine cooling system.

Saw a max of 3400rpm. 1.6psi and 3rd gear but it's enough to know what's coming. Sounds perfect too.

Maybe I missed it, why the decision to go a>a instead of w>a?

I cut the car up to make everything fit. A/A is first choice if space allows.

Drove it today and got in trouble. Some asshole felt the need to yell at me because the car sounds fast. Was driving 25mph and the fool yells and waves his arms at me to stop. Tells me to slow down and didn't want to hear my explanation that it just sounds fast.

Fixed the PS and Clutch today. Discovered another cooling leak. Getting closer to being able to drive it regularly. I have an audio file but don't know where I can upload it.

I cannot wait for kill stories and vids of this beast.

The car's first kill story.

Stance with V8 and battery in the trunk.

Oh goodness is that purty.

Oh My.

That car is beautiful Todd!

Really nice, the ultimate sleeper. I like the deep rim wheels too. I pity those rear tires , for what they are about to receive.

He might as well put treadwear 100 on the rear now, gonna be spin city with anything harder.

Todd: what size tires are those, 225/45-17 or 245/40-17? I'm buying tires tomorrow for my Style 5's and love the look of those!

Your gonna need a lot more meat than that. I have 225 on the back that are DOT-R 100 TW and I can spin them with ease. You should have at least 200 more HP to the wheels than I.
