I'm not 100% sure, it was Terra's before me. I think it's either Pro-9 or Promax

Made a full size template for my luggage cover. Just need to trial fit then look at the two zipped halves to go over the drop rear seats...

Pulled the plastic inner front wheel tubs so it takes the restorer 10 mins less time on stripping and 10 mins more on welding the sills...

Rear end back in but it's too ***** low, I drilled and tapped torsion bars so I can adjust without dropping the rear beam. I'll knock the end caps back in when I'm happy. Then it's off to CoG for a full geo as everything is up the spout now. At least it's all clean and shiny with no seized bolts. Brake lines replaced, bushes replaced, not a job I want to repeat anytime soon but it was satisfying.

Figured out my lack of spark when hot was due to a faulty hall sender in the dizzy. Quick bit of googling and I found this

http://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/showt ... lse-Sender

So stripped the dizzy down and ordered a new coil/sender for £27. Seems a better option than sticking another second hand dizzy in??

like the wheels, what are they and where did you get them?

You might be able to get them balanced again and get the weights put inside the wheel out if sight.
