  • Tommy BMW e36 318is calypsorot from Poland

    I present my another car. This is a BMW 318i [M42] 1994 in color calypsorot. Bought her when she was in poor condition - but so that I could afford it.

    This was when it went into my garage:







    In the last 10 years she made 1000 kilometers so all rubber parts and bearings are fit only into the trash. I must buy absolutly everything...





    The next stage was the reanimation of the engine, or replacement of all fluids and filters, new timing gear and more. On the occasion I cleaned under the hood:







    What would the effect was complete, and renewed all the plastic covers, bought new bolts and caps:





    Then came time for the exhaust system, which had made sounds more scary than my stomach. I chose Eisenmann:









    Next I repear the clutch (flywheel from E30 + new clutch from SACHS):





    And then big cleaning and complete interior of the missing items:



    Recently, the car also had a "premiere" and by the way has contributed in some way to collect funds for the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity (popular activities in Poland, which helps raise money for hospitals and kids)















    What next? Well, I've got new wheels, and m-pack bumpers for her.



    I thing about somthing like this:



    For the moment the car is as follows:









    greetings,
    Tommy

                          I like the way the wheels match the interior.
