EARLY MODEL 635 WITH A TWIST

[evnmopwr]

GREAT work Saving this car..

PS: IM SO BUYING ME A LIFT 2020!!!!!

Excellent work. The purists might frown upon this, I guess, but there a plenty of original 635s left in this world. AS for me, I like the resto-mod thing. Just don't overdo it with modern ultra low profile tyres - 17 inch wheels would be great, 18 inch max. That's my two cents worth anyway. This being the internet, you are getting it for free.

Loving this build! Glad it's being done properly seems like shortcuts were taken previously

I had the boot floor cut out from an e28 so that we could transplant to the blue car.

You sure have made it a challenge to post pics.

Stopping work to photograph is one thing but spending as much time to resize them to fit your allowable space is equally as long.

For those following this thread my apologies but I just could not be bothered to fight a computer to resize.

May I comment and say that this pic load facility is the most un intuitive cumbersome messed up piece of rubbish I have ever had to struggle with.

Just my opinion which I wanted to share.


Pile of rubbish

@"Peter@AEW" are you using a cellphone to take the pics?
Have you tried using the tapatalk app? I find it to be the easiest for when uploading pics directly from my phone to the forum

I actually find hosting on Imgur and copying the links across easier. Upload to the app straight from your phone and then when you're at your computer you can copy the links into your post. You can add a letter to the filename to control the size. If you want to mass-delete your pics across mulitple platforms for whatever reason it is easy as well (eg: if your customer doesn't want the build up for some reason or you are having insurance issues etc).

Mated the diff to the rear axle carrier and fitted it.

Gave the diff a lick of paint with black smooth hammerite
