Incredible E30 318i restomod build
Not sure how kosher it is to cross-post to another forum, but this build thread — and result! — is positively mind blowing. The guy started with a total basket case and ended up with one of the cleanest, most beautiful E30 builds I've ever seen. Looking at all the individual parts, nothing could be said to be over the top, but all together, the car looks like an OEM-partner (e.g., Alpina) special edition.

Didn't read the original thread yet but the starting point, aside from being in a million pieces, doesn't look too bad. Looks straight, floors look ok etc. Beautiful end result.

Yeah, the base car was actually really solid looking. I say this without trying to minimize the guy's effort at all, but the fact that the car was in pieces actually worked to the benefit of the project, IMO.
