Don't assume! Figure out how to direct wire it for testing

I was surfing on my phone at the time and couldn't read the valve covers. Be careful, bad backs are no fun!!

I have not researched the top errors much. Most of them seem to be motor issues. I'll do some looking...

Looks like a Ferrari engine?

Feel free to PM me questions. I have a good bit of BMW roadster experience. Ive owned like 6 or 7 Z3's and have bought like 6 Z4's

You might want to look at relocating the pump to the trunk. The pump on the Z4 lives in a fish bowl. Also there is a mustang pump that can be used in lieu of the BMW pump. Its cheaper and faster

Be sure and check the shift forks and sliders for wear. The 3rd gear maybe snapping in with slop from the slider

Like a brand new car at 12k miles

So what is a synopsis of your technique?

Beautiful weather!!

I'm used to being hurt because I work on my tools in construction but never for this long. It gets tiresome after a while. thanks, Guys

Its easy to over sand. Not exactly like wood but I found it stained out ok

Yes, excellent job!

That would be cool but I was thinking several tire calculator links could be posted in the same article all in one place Options, ya know...

Also some copper to back the hole Helps close them up too. Mind that the copper gets hot very quickly!! Do you not have a metal shop that can brake a section like that for you? I would consider replacing that or at least the worst sections. By the time its clean there wont be much metal left. Several years ago I would have chased those holes. I have come around to the idea that it's overall just easier to get rid of that rotten metal and the chassis is stiffer for it

Thanks Jeff!

Buy another one

JB weld probably won't work in this situation. It doesn't like to be flexed. Seals holes, drill it, mill it. Can even pull on it, but flexing, not so much

No more Tri-metal??? Really?

That is a most excellent shift knob!!!

Ahhh, much better! A nice selection of cars there

624 days since a post!!! Pffttt! Depressing... Any way the car is still out of the shop and covered up and the Goon is occupying premium space but I did tinker a little today. I pulled together about 20#'s of metal to go to the platers. It's an experiment. I did very little prep work other than degreasing. We'll see what I get back. I also worked on one of the Cv axle halfshafts for the CLSD rear end. It's been sitting on my bench for almost 2 years. I found these numbers on the hub. Might be useful or cross-referenceable

I need to find some parts... Defrost boots Also need fresh air vents Need the inner glove box too Thanks, C

I have the tranny all put together. Seems to bench shift ok. Hopefully in the next 6 months we will get to road test it. We'll see Thanks for everyone's help!!

Congrats!! All the images seem to have downloaded small. I can't enlarge them...
