Tommy124 Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) Hi there, I got a hold of 2 built E36 kits some time ago. These kits are very hard/ extensive to come by these days. So my intention was to restore them both and build one into a Nurburgring endurance racer and the other (this) one into a sporty road version. The restoration was hard on this one, the body didn't take the paint stripping well and the initial builder used a lot of glue on the clear parts... Made the best of it, I gather... This was the starting point. The body used for this model is the right one... Edited January 17, 2023 by Tommy124 10
Tcoat Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Looks great! And thanks for not making it black or silver like every single BMW I see on the street is.
espo Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Great looking paint finish and I like the Metallic Blue color. Nice interior contrasting color and clean trim. I'm a big fan of the 3 series.
happy grumpy Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Nice job. It was worth the effort, the end result is a beautiful build old a classic sports car.
Dragonhawk1066 Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Turned out pretty nice, I like the color!
beeRS Posted January 17, 2023 Posted January 17, 2023 Very nice restoration. Well done and good colour choices.
David G. Posted January 17, 2023 Posted January 17, 2023 A beautiful restoration, everything looks perfect! Well worth the effort. David G.
Rocking Rodney Rat Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) Nice save, I had an E36 about 25 years ago. It was in their burnt sienna color. I gave it to my 16 year old daughter and she totaled it (she wasn't hurt very bad).... -RRR Edited January 18, 2023 by Rocking Rodney Rat
