    Default Before & After Pics - Love your E34 Again!

    Last fall I had allowed my beloved E34 to fall into disrepair.

    Bruno (www.racingking.net , www.bmwe34.net) tought me to love my E34 again! It was lowered, the front end rebuilt, valves adjusted, brakes done, new headlights installed, all fluids changed to redline (hey, I have 1st gear again!) and new wheels and tires were added. This was all done in a 24 hour blitzkrieg of work!!

    THANKS BRUNO !!!!

    This work was actually done last fall - I promised him I would post some pictures. Winter in Canada is not kind to cars, so I waited until now to take some snaps.

    Next up is some paint, a freshened interior, and a very light tint on the windows. (thoughts on how heavy to go?)

    Although I've been on the board for a few years, these are the first pictures my car I've ever posted.

    The BEFORE



    The AFTER

    Excellent! -nice job.
    You write "Born to Kill" on your helmet and you wear a peace button. What's that supposed to be, some kind of sick joke?

    Canadian cars come with rear headrests. Must be the law or something.

    I have a set in my car - was poached from a federalized Canadian car that Martin and I salvaged.

    Don't think it was ever a US option.
