JP Fabrication Posted December 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 I scored a mint E30 dash. I had previously removed factory heater/ac box and installed a heater unit from Summit. I removed all the ducting from the dash until I get it to fit. The plan is to get the defrost and center ducts working with the heater. Took care of some rust issues. Added some Dyanmat to the fenders, sprayed rubberized under coating to the fenders and the front end, rear air shocks, control arms,3.5" drop plates, tie tods, ball joint and ST coilovers installed. Mocking up new steering column position. Steering column brackets welded in. Glove box installed and brackets welded in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's worth building, it's worth over building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jk13 Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Judging by the custom tool box system I can't wait to see where this ends up. Looks good so far. Static drops are my bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
