Glad to see someone that repairs their alternators instead of replacing with questionable re-manufactured units. I haven't replaced an alternator in probably 25-30 years. I always have the original...

Precisely why I loved my "88 Prelude si so much

Looking forward to see you work your magic on it

Pretty low miles...

Simply awesome although, your GF doesn't look that thrilled :)
Those first couple of pics of you car with the track in the background... I'd be making a poster out of one of those.

Weird seeing...

That M3 looks pretty hammered.... the noise in the rear could very well be torn subframe mounts. can't believe how clean the interior is on the Audi

Ok great info. I'm most likely going with DMF and Sachs performance clutch... I wonder if it's the same as the one one sold in the states. No one here on the site has ever seen or used one...
My...

Just catching up here,
Damn cool stuff! Pics are great!

We went through the mirror thing with our E53 but never got around to fixing it. now you know why... :)

Meant to ask you, How's the feel...

Stunning pics... I like the night shots. The food looks delicious! It's good that you can make a vacation out of all these trips, otherwise, I imagine it would be disappointing.

Stay tuned for the next episode of "Wheeler dealers: Streten style"

That little model is cool... We buy those for our kids but we end up keeping the best ones for ourselves... that one looks pretty functional.

Man, you are a maintenance machine! I wish I had the time to get into my car that much. It really needs it.
There's nothing like driving a car after a fresh rebuild of the suspension and engine...

I'm assuming the e39 has a traditional steering box judging by the center link?
I can see now what you mean about the rear shock adjustment!
Can't wait to see your progress with the 8 series......

Every time I see you buy another car to fix up, I'm thinking ...

That's about what everyone here does: 1/4 to 1/2 from full soft
I did full soft and I really like it at that setting. I do have H&R springs though.
Also, keep in mind there will be a break-in...

Damn, you get a lot of stuff done at once... that's a lot of work.
The Koni yellows are nice shocks even if you never adjust them. I installed mine a few years ago on full soft and haven't touched...

Wow! that's a helluva lot of work to be doing on the ground! Suspension work isn't all that complicated but it"s a PITA.
That's cool you found a decent TUV guy... I imagine some of them are dicks.

My dream is restoring cars in retirement... if my body still works by then :)

I Like your story presentations... so fascinating, I see why you are eager to share. Congrats on the newest M5 I'm sure it will end up just as good as the one you sold. i like the color too

That cleaned up nice! I like a clean engine bay...

Lots going on over there in EU, glad you are getting to tour a lot... keeps life interesting.

yea that's gotta be tough...

That's surprising... Fuchs, it's parent company, is German... It's for motorcycles... maybe a motorcycle dealer would have it?

Try Silkolene Pro prep to finish off the engine compartment. I promise you won't be disappointed... makes plastic, rubber, etc look brand new. I discovered it years ago when I was doing motocross....

Looks fantastic!

I love the back of your car... The exhaust tips are perfect.

I had a huge dent in the hood from a giant Jersey acorn. After PDR, I can't tell where it was anymore...
