Behind The Build | BMW E36 M3 Restoration

Here at SouthernBM we see cars in various states of condition, and in a restoration sense, every now and then a real gem lands in our laps.
An almost pristine BMW E36 M3 arrived and at first glance, it looks almost factory fresh. A closer inspection, however, reveals a few hiccups.

Beauty! I just wish you’d panned over that engine bay a little slower;) IMO this is the most aesthetically pleasing BMW engine of them all. I just got a S50B32 ‘96 sedan from Japan and am in love with the thing 👍. Nice tip about the carpet section repair. 🍻 Cheers

Thanks for the comments and I'll take note to do a slow pan over the next one for you.

how the hell an owner can store an M3 like this? My heart would broke if I see my M3 like this condition....

What kind of price would a customer be looking at to have to Alcanatara rooflining fitted?

[@southernbm]

We are in lockdown at the moment so not sure of pricing, happy to look into it when we go back, can you send me an email??

It's actually NOT common to find issues like this Red Car has. This is the result of neglect by animals who don't deserve to own such a beautiful car. The guy who owned this drove it into the ground. It was obviously not cared for the way most would care for their car.

Funny how many Europeans add an American steering wheel and the people like me in the US add a Euro steering wheel.

Is that something people do, is it?

@@southernbm Yeah. Shout out to my blokes in Aussyland. Was there in 2016 (Sydney and a cruise through New Caladonia). Most beautiful country on earth. Period.
