Since I can't find any pictures of my car other than on the track pictures from the last event will have to do. 1988 BMW 325is gutted, bilstien sport shocks, H&R race springs, full poly bushings on everything, falken azenis, HP+ pads and no ac/ps/heavy poo poo. My cheap track rat that can easily hang with M3's and slower porches on technical tracks.

- Some sort of brake upgrade and SS lines
- LSD and 'box refresh
- Bodywork
- Quick 'rack, smaller Mtech 2 steering wheel

Anyone seen my ball joints?
1998 Turbodiesel Redneck Parade float.

I almost got a HMMWV restoration project but I figured it's prudent to have one project truck at a time.



Was in Camp Pendleton yesterday for a toy drive, I actually had the H1 buffed and waxed and to my amazement the paint didn't flake off :)

Still got a shitload of work to do with it.

-Needs new front shock pockets, I replaced most of the front end suspension, the shocks are a pain to get into position on the front end.
-Needs new engine/trans skidplate UCP, bent the last one on a rock in Johnson Valley while chasing a race truck. It rubs against the exhaust.
-Needs new door hinges
-Needs 2 door lock actuators for the rear doors
-Need a new air intake snorkel so I can fit my Donaldson TopSpin precleaner.
-Needs new low coolant bulb for the dash
-Needs a new parking brake sensor switch.
-Needs new MAP Sensor / Turbo boost solenoid. My turbo craps out at 5000+ft, its one or the other, and it's and easy swap so I'll replace both.
-Needs new A/C cable, I got a refrigerant leak between the compressor and the cooling stack
-Needs misc missing bolts that the previous owner lost
-Geared Hub/Portal axle spindle seal is leaking air [for the CTI system] on the passenger side front.
-Torn ball joint boot on driver side rear.

Stuff I'd like to do:

-Install lockers, front and rear
-Install warn industrial winch, or a hydraulic winch provided its fed by an industrial pump and not the power steering/brake system.
-Install lightbar with removable HID lights front and rear.
-Add GPS
-Fix body damage on doors and rear fenders
-New paint
-Upgrade to race suspension [$$$$, waiting a while for this]

It's not gonna win any speed or beauty contest (Arty shot taken so as not to show the huge dent in the front left fender) but it's ticked off over 300,000 miles without totally making GBS threads the bed. Affectionately referred to as the Fiestamobile or the Festicle.

I love mine but I wouldn't exactly consider it a people hauler. It works for 4, but lack of rear doors would make it kind of a pain for more than occasional usage for passengers, and if you ever need more than a little cargo space it's a bit lacking if people are back there. Unless you were talking about a Clubman in which case at least the cargo area looks somewhat decent even with the seats up, I'm not sure how much of a difference the club door makes.

Congratulations! I think the older Toyota pickups look great, although part of that might be cause they remind me of the fixed up black one in Back to the Future.
