Default claiming my own thread. my ef project. NEW PAINT!

first time posting pics of my car. here she is, my brother and i did almost all of the bodywork, it was a MESS, a rusty piece of **** MESS

but i loved the car, and couldnt bare to sell it off. as fate would have it, i broke my ankle a while back which prompted me to start the task of curing the cancer and fully restoring the car.

it has been 2 YEARS since i last drove it, and will be about 3-4 months before i drive it agian this summer. while it was under the knife, i have been collecting some parts for it, and will be installing them in the coming weeks/months. i will keep this thread updated as the build continues.

for now, here are some snaps of the new paint!! ill be bringing her home this week, and will start putting it back together, i will upload many pics in the coming days of what it looked like, and whats sitting in my basement

on with the show.....















03' BMW Black Sapphire Metallic paint
88-89 bumper

I love EF restorations! I just got mine running a few weeks ago! Mine wasn't as extensive as yours, but it went from junkyard to street machine none the less!

Good luck with it. Paint looks perfect!

paint looks good, but it's really hard to tell with the quality of the pictures
