Not mine, but cool. Stumbled on it whilst searching e28 randomness. Sorry if repost, but damn these are hot!

I am planning on making one of these, just still figuring out everything involved. The e28 just looks so cool in touring form!

I know the owner of that car.
I also know the owner of my earlier owned old Schulz.
Cool chassis, totally worth it...

Awesome car, but personally I think that it would look nicer if the back wasn't as long.

Invite him to the board! It'd be cool to see more pics, mods, etc...

I love it! I think if I was to build one of these, I'd have Brent (BKbimmer) do the work. He is an excellent craftsman and knows the E28. Whether or not I could afford his time is besides the point.

He is already on Stanceworks and on a Norwegian forum etc...
Here is a link to the 76-page long thread in Norwegian;

Of all the e28's we've found on this board, I'm surprised no one else has stumbled on this one before me!

The craftsmanship looks pretty sketchy but it looks cool!

I think it's a case of people saw it, but assumed someone else had already posted it
Saw the s/w thread a few months ago, but the build thread on that Norwegian website is much better. Still no decent detailed photo's of the interior trimming in the rear, which is about all i'm interested in. Definitely a cool car, if only it had a little more rubber, and a little less rim.

It is the same length as a regular E28. You want a hatchback?

Rear door delete, then chop it off behind the rear wheels... Shooting Brake FTW!
Makes me wonder if anybody ever did an e24 shooting brake... I seem to remember seeing a photo of one that looked an awful lot like a Volvo; where was that?

Isn't there a pic of an e28 hatch someone hashed together a few years ago?

yeah, what I wrote did sound weird. I don't know, maybe its the way the picture was taken, but to me it looks long. If I saw it in person it would probably be perfect.
