Howsit Guys :fencelook:

I have been quite busy recently :rollsmile:

I will have a nice update in a month :sorry:

I want to post everything at once if possible so just a little more patience :ty:

I made a few changes to my original plan for the car, hopefully for the better :idea:

I'm tempted to post what's been happening recently but I plan to make my next update well worth the wait :joy:

Congrats on a classic...:thumbs:

Good afternoon members :fencelook:

So I've been waiting on the panel beater to finish this car and thought it would take a month but now we're on two months :thumbdo:

However the car has taken time there to ensure there is no rust and everything is as straight as can be so :bravo: to the panel beater raise:

I should have the car back next week where I can hopefully finish it in time for the Parade on the 6th of July at Kyalami :inlove:

But i highly doubt this will happen :nonono:

Here are some teasers of the car :joy:

paint still needs to be flattened and polished, this is fresh out the booth so the orange peel you see will be reduced quite a lot :rollsmile:

I know it's not the original "silver" as planned :roflol:

But I've decided the car is for keeps unless I get a stupid offer(which i doubt). So might as well make it something I want and I am happy with rather than pleasing everyone else :tease:

Hoping you guys dig the Lazur Blue like I do :inlove:

P.S. I got a whole lot of new parts from the dealers(clips, screws, bolts, grills etc) so the car will look quite nice once completed :ty:

Cheers,

Lano

Well done bud I like the lazur blue it's a nice colour tho personally I would prefer the original silver just as rare as lazur blue but looking good keep us posted plz :thumbs:

Estoril Blue :inlove: But personal choice, as long as it looks like an original 325iS then we are all gonna droooool!!! :drool:
Look forward to seeing the finished product!

Yeah Mamajee's car from Lenz :inlove:!!
That was my inspiration when I saw it in 2011 :thumbs:
Will never be THAT clean but I'll be happy with my project :rollsmile:

Thanks guys for the positive comments :ty:

I like dark colours to see reflections and detail in the paint hence the colour choice, apposed to keeping it original in silver :idea:
