You're so talented man. I don't know how old you are, but it looks to me like you're already a veteran (and talented at that). DON'T RUSH ANYTHING FOR US. Do it PERFECT. ANYTHING you skip now will cost 10x as much to redo later, and it still won't look as good as if you do it at the most opportune time.
Overall not bad,but I would have worked on that left quarter more,than when you installed the rear body panel you could have had the factory seams exposed making it,look like it came off the assembly line.good video,your paint guy’s work is impressive.😎😎😎👍👍👍
Mark, watching you grind those welds with no safety glasses sends chills down my spine. I know you do this every day but you only get one pair of eyes. Safety squints aren’t going to save you. Please use proper PPE so we can continue to enjoy your channel 😊
There's no need to rush this kind of project car and take too many shortcuts while welding and casually applying seam sealer. I hope it's not too late to cut and reweld panels again properly (using silicon bronze mig wire to really match OEM look). Greetings from Europe ;)
4:31 trace the shape of the good side and have 23 garage plasma cut(or you could cut it from a piece of sheet metal with a pair of tin snips) a exact new piece of sheet metal and weld it back in on the bad side...just a thought
Could have used some silicone bronze Cusi3 wire to weld/braze up those seams. Cusi3 gives a more ductile weld which doesn't crack. This would have been better in this application. Because this type of weld is softer it also gives u the opportunity to grind the seams back in making it look aesthetically correct.
Mark why didn’t you take the seal off the sunroof? I know you can’t get e30 sunroof seals but e36 sunroof seal is an inch longer and u can cut it down to size. Now you have primer on the seal and sunroof will peel if you don’t fix it.
great job on the rear end Mark, and a good compromise to weld in the sides, make them seams disappear totally good to see you trusting young Victor with painting your motor, looks quite confident and a pretty hard worker - you make a good partnership can't wait to see this puppy finished - love n sport
That's going to look awesome.You all did great work sanding and finishing the prep. I do have to ask about the inner wheel well on the drivers side rear. I thought we'd see you repair that with the rear deck.?.At least we know there'll be extra vids before final polish.Well done Mark. Achieving your dream car and getting married in the same year.
That new tail panel fit in nicely with small adjustments. That was crazy with the Bondo on the windshield cowling. Doing an awesome job, Keep Orange Crushing It!
You should have asked Yuri to panel beat that corner out properly for you. Not good that you welded the seams. That or buy a new quarter panel. Too late now.

Don't know much about those e30s I just don't see what's so great about them square box with a steering wheel .compard to the mustang sitting next to it.
A couple of questions…. So are you still building the S2000 swapped e30 m3 or is that no longer happening because of this one? Second, why install the engine just to get it covered in body dust, why not leave it out and do the engine bay, along with the rest of the car since it’s all being redone anyways?? Doing the engine bay would give it that chefs kiss once it’s completed! Not doing it would just make it look out of place to see a car so slick and beautiful and then to pop the hood and see that massive engine but a bay that was skipped and not repainted with the rest of the car… if I were going this far with a car, I would do the bay as well, since it’s all being done anyways - it’s the 10% left out…
@@Motorheadco ohhh that’s right, you showed that and talked about it in the video when you picked it up, totally forgot about that. But even then, I would’ve left the engine out so that you didn’t get it covered in the sanding dust, filler dust, and all of the other airborne contaminates - but that’s just my opinion… So what about the s2000 swapped one that you were building? Did you sell it off or junk it?
You should have asked for help. To get the seams right. You just devaluated the car. For an non oem restauration. Your dad or brothers could have helped you.
@@Motorheadco it’s about your skillset. They would have helped you. To get it right. It’s about admitting someone can teach you. About personal development. I know you have it in you. If you can cut that edge afterwards. Yeah you could. But a good appraiser will find it. This is not were you stripped the car down for. You bought the panel to restore to OEM.
@@Motorheadco You can later work the separation points on the rear panel into the weld seam with the cut-off machine and then it will look right when painted. Please do not use putty for this...
@@TheUnderGround979 I had to move on. It was a replica and needed a lot of money to finish. The value just wasn’t there. I decided this was the best route financially

I think you got lazy, that driver quarter is warped, you had to pry the panel in and you removed the flange that held the back panel in and took the lazy way out welding in the seam. For a car you claim to love so much you took a BIG shortcut that hurts the value of the car. Not my car I know but disappointed in you.
The flange was destroyed I didn’t remove it, the only other option was to replace the quarter panel. And I’m not gonna do that. I can always cut the weld to add a seam. As far as value goes it doesn’t matter cause I’ll never sell it
@@Motorheadcoand as far as quarter panels go, a lot of folks don’t know most parts especially rear quarters, are NLA for the e30 m3 so you have to work with what you have. Car is coming along very well. 👍🏾
I really like your channel Mark, but I have to agree with @Jsellers1965. Spending all this time and money on your dream car, and then not dealing with the driver quarter in a more appropriate manner just kind of goes against what you are attempting to do with this build. And you never know what the future may hold. Your interests may change, or you may need to sell the car to help your future family. Just sayin….
Good work.
Thanks!
Take your time. Don’t rush this project for CZcams
You owe your team a Steak dinner or two for their amazing work and help, including your Dad who showed you how to do this to begin with. Love it!.

Nice to see the BMW in one color !!!! And with all that preparation it will turn to a beautiful car again !!!!
Great work mark, but take the front and back windows out.🙏
It’s perfect
What it they bust 😅
Looking forward to the finished project. What a beauty she’s becoming
At last! All one colour and looking absolutely awesome! Well done Marc and team! 👍
That is coming along nicely….cannot wait to see the finished results.
Looking good in primer!
Can’t wait to see it painted !
Can’t wait to see it finished. I love that body style.
Very nice progress on your bmw, and its nice to see it coming together. You need to take better care of your health when welding & painting.
Thank you. And what do you mean
Toxic fumes bro, welding and paint - protect yourself 😉😎. Stay safe and healty,keep up the good work 👍

M3 is coming along nicely 👌🏻
Yessir 🙌🏻
Can't wait to see some fresh color on the M3.

Haha thanks!! 😅
Loving the m3 content, keep it up! Hopefully i'll be able to rebuild one as well one day since its my dream car too lol
Nice!
Thank you
great job on the rear end Mark, and a good compromise to weld in the sides, make them seams disappear totally
good to see you trusting young Victor with painting your motor, looks quite confident and a pretty hard worker - you make a good partnership

Great video but I hope to see you take as much care to the underside of the car and make this car really what it should be I hope so!

Appreciate it!
I think it turned out good. Good work
G'day mate have you thought about air brushing the door jam that should eliminate the hard line could be a Ezy fix food for thought
Nice job keep up the good work.
bro slow that welder down or put it on stitch you will have less griding
Oh no, you destroyed the nice factory seams on that panel😂
You have to take out the windows and the sunroof to be able to make a good OEM paint job.
great stuff guys thanks
Nice welds...better than factory!
That new tail panel fit in nicely with small adjustments. That was crazy with the Bondo on the windshield cowling. Doing an awesome job, Keep Orange Crushing It!
Saludos 👋 está quedando brutal .El muchacho que está tirando la imprimación tiene buena mano para pintar👍Dios los siga bendiciendo ❤
Thanks!!
Good job lads from Australia 🇦🇺
Now for it to work like a Swiss watch, you have to install a fueltech ECU
Забыли сделать полоски под фонарями, места стыка крыльев и задней панели
Dont look at the screen, look at the cam, great vid! :)
Should have definitely painted the Door Jams !??
They will get paint and 2k primer, there’s no reason to epoxy prime them
Nice job! Music levels seemed better on this one too :-}

Pull the sunroof panel and primer/paint off the car. All the seals are available and inexpensive.
Love seeing the progress, idk if I missed but what’s going on with the rep m3 e30?
Don't know much about those e30s I just don't see what's so great about them square box with a steering wheel .compard to the mustang sitting next to it.
Good you removed that sealer from the corner back panels it was on my nerve
😂😂

Here you see why, there was a Rost Repair....
Typical e30 Rust Spot😉
The spray pattern used for the epoxy seems really narrow. Is that to reduce overspray in a large, unventilated room? I'm just trying to learn.
🚗👍👏💪
would that affect the value of the car by what you doing stripping the old paint off the car and then add new paint work to the car

The Bodyshop left my e30 for 2 weeks before Painting it, so that the filler/primer could dry well.

The engine bay has a fresh paint job before engine was installed

Can someone explain to me where the honda powered e30 m3 build went?
Its called a Beaver panel of all words, why I have no idea, maybe its at the arse end
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Where did you get that rear trunk panel from? Thanks
Ecs tuning, 320 and deliver like 6 days after ordering
look into a product called duraglas
Who is that helping you?
Did Nate come with you?
First!!

You should have asked for help. To get the seams right. You just devaluated the car. For an non oem restauration. Your dad or brothers could have helped you.
I can always cut the seam when doing the body work and I don’t care about value it’s staying with me forever
