First Car Intro - E34 530i Touring
Always been fond of tourings (especially merc wagons), and since my brother had already picked up a e34 and we had two parts cars I felt as if it was destined. An e34 touring. Upon my daily routine scouring craigslist, I noticed one that had met the criteria and had started making moves. A few long days later, a 1995 BMW 530iT was parked outside looking too stylish . Of course it needs work, but a M60b30 V8 with 136k on the clock, i was ecstatic. I got my licence a few months ago (16 but not that young) and have parts coming in on the daily. Plans for the build is as follows, dealing with the five previous owners mistakes, full tune-up from water pump to maybe valley pan, a total wash detail buff and wax day on her, a complete 16pc. front suspension kit off fleabay... Eventually later down the road is an 530i manual transmission, 540i intake manifold and throttle body, and some jom blueline coilovers for a sedan that are going to be a pain to fit but has been done before once or twice, and other small things to make the car look as clean as possible.
Want to have her show ready for Bimmerfest West on the 17th of may so Its coming down to crunch time to get her all tidied up. Anyways,
Onto the pics (what most of you are here for)
My brothers '95 525i & My 95' 530i
Can report that the double sunroofs in working order
And some photos from the fs add...
Was to excited early on so just wanted to install some red tail light tint & a eruo plate just to spruce her up a bit...
A comparison...
The beast at sleep
Sorry for the excessive pics, and blabbering. Build will be a slow build as I am still in high school so funds will be low for a while (Although, most if not all my funds will be torwards the wagon)... I wont update the thread much but will have major updates rarely. Comments & Criticism welcome, please share your opinions, as i am still young and want to learn from everyone off of stanceworks as ive been on this forum for almost a year now and want to keep learnin'.
