Newman's 1986 BMW 326rb build thread.

sorry about the lack of pics. It’s not a lot to see at this point, just some old control arms. Once i get something worth looking at, i will snap some pics.

Last night after work i stayed late and made a bearing press out of some plate steel and tubing and proceeded to press out the wheel bearings. The RLCAs are now completely stripped. I am going to weld on a new spring mount and reinforce the swaybar endlink mounting point and then powdercoat.

I am still working on a color scheme. suggestions are welcome. The colors i think i want are a combination of lime green, black and safety orange.

The parts that need to be painted are:
Rear subframe
Rear control arms
Differential
Front Subframe
Front control arms
Front Strut tubes/perch

Thoughts? This is all against a black background of th underbody/wheelwell.
