Long time no post, since i was focusing more on the property, and the detailing jobs, but i am finally back in my E38 restoration, moving on with the underbody, and the rear axle/subframe. I want to have everything from the bottom done and ready, so i can finally drive it without much worrying :-)
Here is the latest episode, i removed the exhaust, all the heatshields, and all the parts around sills and underbody, refreshing everything i touched :-)

Wow! Hats off to you, it is looking brand new piece by piece. My father and I are contemplating on doing the same to his -98 740i, but I’m personally worried we’d end up dumping at least 10 000€ in order to replace/fix the rusty bodywork, on top of which you’d have the mechanics, electronics and interior to sort out. We neither have the skills or time to perform most tasks which would further increase the cost. May I ask what your budget is? I assume you do the most of the work yourself?
