I started my journey with my car.  I picked it up in Sausalito, Ca and drove it 500 miles home.  It was the first of many journeys with the car.  So many emotions are tied to this car.  Its truly a part if me.  Soooo many here have helped me on this journey and I am glad to call alot of you friends that I have met on the way!  Thanks to everyone that here on the bmw2002faq for giving me advice, keeping me pointed un the right direction, helping me out with parts or just making me laugh!!!   Looking forward to many more years with this one and maybe anither build starting in 2019. Thanks!!

Nice progress! Your "before" shot looks like my Fjord 2002 looked when I picked her up in June. She's made a transformation since then, but definitely not as drastic (yet).

Congrats!  Your car is cool - it turned out great.  I know it's never done, but you know what I mean.

Awesome. Love the results. That just reminded me that I need to slow down and not try to get it all done in record breaking time.

It's been an honor and a pleasure.  You and your attitude towards these cars is, in-part, what makes this community so awesome.

They are never finished.  Lol. I was using mine as a daily so i did things as tbings failed or as they needed.  My next one will probably be alot faster of a build because i wont be using it as a daily.  By the way, Thanks for the subframe!!!
