Don’t look bad at all underneath and looks like a good starting point. Must be getting near the grand mark on bits so far, maybe even more with the upholstery. Getting itchy feet hear with some funds saved over the last 3months.
Looking to change the interior to finally put my mark on the coupe. Looks like Trevor will have a real nice Z3 before the end of summer. Well done so far, you never cease to amaze me with the work load.
stay safe down there all you good looking southern boys.

Is this car aware of how Trev drives? Poor poor car.....

Little update. Popped in and got eyes on everything after grit blasting, everything’s looking clean ready for powder.
Like a blank canvas Lee. Have fun.

wow love it
It all looks great. Why has it got 2 rear beams.
Building up shed spares. So when we have a car in a fresh powder coated set goes straight on. The speed these guys work would add a week onto my turn around time.

looks like the sky’s the limit on this Z3, must be a “keeper”.

Right. Everything’s back from powder coating. We even removed the bearings so everything can be cleaned.
While all of this is going on here’s a sneak peak of what else is happening in the background.
Now onto the powder coated items. Everything we took off the Zed was is pretty good shape so it’s no surprise to see they now look like new. We’ve now got an agreement in place going forward so we have an option to fully powdercoat every Zed that passes through the shed.
The spare subframe had quite a bit of surface rust and that still came up really well, only showing some small spots of pitting.
Reassembly will begin in the next few days after my track day at brands. She’s going to look lovely assembled.

Oh I’m so excited, impressive to say the least
Certainly can’t beat that shot blasted and powdered finish.
You should do this full time mate, punters would be queuing round the block.
Funny you should say that, with all this sillyness happening my line of work has gone dead so I'm taking in more cars than normal.
I personally like the look of them. The bumps could do with being higher. Swatch this space
