In this episode, I finish up the small patch repairs on the E30 chassis. From now on it will be mostly bigger cuts with whole pressed panels to replace the rust and missing metal.

@E30GarageNorway has sent 1 one 3 packages containing all of the panels I need to get this E30 back to factory condition.

Some of what is coming might be out of my skill set, in which case I will take the chassis to my local restoration place and hopefully help a professional carry out the work.

Join me next time when hopefully the panels will have arrived and I can really start to get stuck in.

Thanks for watching! Subscribe with the bell on to see this car back to the factory condition.
