    The way these are going up in value you’ve smashed it with this find 🔥🔥

  • @tinybartini
    @tinybartini Před 7 měsíci +18

    you are so lucky to have an E36 in such 'good condition' - really! I don't know what you paid but it was worth it surely, it's getting harder and harder to find one not rotten completely - either here or in continental europe (i.e. get the front water drainage channels below the windscreen checked if they're not blocked to avoid future problems), also it doesn't look to 'devastated' by previous owners.

    I would switch out the steering wheel with the oem M-sport one and I would definitely keep those headlights as well you should get the aftermarket tinted sidelights, Great Vid👍

  • @jimdcars
    @jimdcars Před 7 měsíci +3

    I’d deffo get some reinforcements for those front shock mounts, they’re known to mushroom as it is (it did on my e46) and with the rust on yours that’ll weaken them further

    Hi Brett, love the E36. I had a few back when I was in my early 20s (not far off 40 now). I always wanted the 328is but the biggest I had was a 323i.
    Just subscribing to see how this project turns out. Good luck mate!! :)

    • @e28forever30
      @e28forever30 Před 7 měsíci +2

      Had several of them.
      Enjoyed them all.
      -316i for the missus
      -320i, swapped to 325i.
      -318is classII “procar”
      -323i touring
      Terrific cars!

  • @RM-gc4zk
    @RM-gc4zk Před 7 měsíci +7

    Very ncie project car! I had a 325i and it looks like yours has the m50b25 inlet manifold from the 325i which is another reason it would make a bit more power due to it been bigger than the standard 328i version.

    • @dannb0dge
      @dannb0dge Před 7 měsíci

      Definately has the M50 inlet on it, which also means it's probably had a map too.

    Awesome Brett. Great car for phenomenal content. Go all out on it. It cleaned up perfectly. I’ve owned two e36 BMWs. Going up in value and a classic. Great spec, perfect engine. Will you dare to chop it into a pick up truck?!?!?!

  • @trickydicky90
    @trickydicky90 Před 7 měsíci +1

    Great car, had the same colour but a 325i straight 6, 97 model. wish I still had it would be worth something now, didn't breakdown once in 7 years and 90K later. 12 years ago couldn't even get £500 on ebay for it and that was a perfect running one!!

  • @channex8179
    @channex8179 Před 6 měsíci

    That brought back memories of my Arctic Silver E36 M3 Evo I had back in 2004, I only sold it because some stupid woman hit me reversing out of the space next to me in a morrisons carpark, panicked and continued to reverse and took the whole side of the car off arch to arch. I got it repaired but I could see the difference in the paint repair because I knew it was there. I've since had an E46 330ci and now have an E90 335d but the newer ones don't quite have the same visceral driving experience.

    @adnxn1 Před 7 měsíci +2

    lovely project, had a look at the mot history and just before it was left there it failed for loads of things then fixed and left. had exhaust related issues in 2021 which was then fixed and the current advisories are All under side heavily corroded
    Nearside front brake pipe corroded, covered in grease or other material (1.1.11 (c))
    Offside front brake pipe corroded, covered in grease or other material (1.1.11 (c))
    Supplementary restraint system warning lamp does not illuminate (7.1.6 (a))
    it failed on exhaust emissions literally every MOT over the last few years but it seems to get fixed every year too seems suspicous
    looks like its had new coil springs and suspension arm joints replaced in the latest MOT, hopefully it isnt too rusty haha
    cant wait for this one, didnt ever think youd have a car older than your first corsa but this project looks like fun

      @@BrettBarnesYT IMO you should then get the OEM headlights fitted with 'angel lights' type rings and re-seal the headlights properly to get away with moisture problem inside, have a clean but also cool look - car looks OEM, side lights on - car looks amazing.
