You’ve inspired me to get my 94 Diamond Schwarz e31 back On the road. It’s been sitting for 6 years in the garage. Watching you bring these beauties back to life makes me miss driving mine. Thank you!

I believe MOT is: Ministry of Transportation. We have DMV WHICH IS DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES. Each state has their own and most only require annual smog check. Only a few do safety inspections. Those lower front lights are "flash to pass," in day time so you don't have to turn on your full headlights. You should just have to pull your signal stock to use them. I actually like the gray interior of the blue 840. It complements it. Sorry Edd. 😆

There is so much rust and dirt, I couldn't stand driving a car like that, they need a serious refresh job . With time it's only going to get worse at some point you will have to change entire frame parts. Even so you would have to preferably check all those rusted frames with an ultrasound probe for eternal corrosion, before you do an entire treatment on it. I would also take the entire engine and gear box apart clean it check it for any problems etc. Cars like this are just going to break more and more in time before they are to expensive to salvage unless they are well maintained.

Thanks for the video, would you have a set of black sun visors for sale from the crashed e31? I am also in the last stages of researching the s62 swap. If you need any help please let me know. All the swaps I have seen so far are not well done with things like traction control, AC, cruise control and so on not working or not working properly but I have more of these figured out.
