that was me.

mighty fine pic. got any more pics to show us?

I see it has 14" x-spokes from an E28 lux model and tasty BBS spoiler.

Have you fitted blue seat covers?

What are your plans for the car, paintwork, doors etc?

looking good.

I remember when the 635Csi first came out around 80/81 it was available with 14" x-spokes. were they the same as on the e23 in the pic?

looking good.

Blue seat covers were a bargain@ Argos £20. I must admit I was a bit doubtful at first, but now I really like 'em. Better than the faded & battered orignals underneath. They will do untill I can find some cheap elec leathers.(Will the seats from the next gen 7 series fit ?).

Plans are:

1st Fit LPG conversion (half way through)

2nd Fix ABS (Some fool has removed some sensors, but I know a man who's breaking a 635. Anyone want any spares give me a shout I'll see what I can do).

3rd Try & fix rust hole on OSR door. A big prob as I'm rubbish @bodywork & cant find any matching paint. The car is supposed to be Cosmos Blue but it's more a Silver/grey. I think the paint must have faded over the years.

So how do I send images to the site like everyone else ?

you must host your pics on an external site such as Geocities, then post a link to the pic by clicking the icon that looks like a tree in a field, thats the Add Image icon.

how did the Argos covers clear the folding armrests?

someone has fitted E32 leather seats to an E23. I am guessing you will need to mount the e32 seat to the e23 seat rails. the seat is just bolted to the seat rails. I do not know if you can simply bolt in the entire seat.

E28 5 series front seats will fit your car as they are identical.
