I finally own not one, but two tool carts!
I wanted to thank Patreon Philipp here as well who provided me with these amazing tools. He works for Hazet (perhaps as the CEO?) and sent me these goodies pretty much no strings attached. Tru...

Alrighty, boys & galls! Something different in the episode!
Was thinking of a way to best utilize the space in the shop and I couldn't find anything to buy that fit the bill. I got a used storage rack and turned it into a lovely workben...
Part 11 has landed! In this episode, we address all of the outstanding mishaps from the previous one and finally install M sport bumpers which now wear the correct paint and match with the rest of the car.
The touring has come a very long ...
Been busy setting up the new dojo!
Started with the workbench. After much research trying to find something to buy, I decided to make my own. Got a used rack, 4 meters long, 4 meters high. The first row I turned into a worktable and everythi...

Part 10 of project Cologne has landed!
I was planning to do a complete exterior M sport conversion in this episode, but it backfired.
We install beautiful Style 135 rims wrapped in Falken tires, which is the newest supporter of the channe...
Yup, I did it again. Last week a very cheap E32 750iL popped for sale in Logroño, Spain. Complete, non-runner, parked since 2016 but the owner had it running recently with starter fluid as fuel pumps are dead. Being a Spanish car, it's rust-free ...

Truthfully, I wasn't looking for this model, I just...
Let's play a guessing game, Patreons!
What did I buy? Hint, it's from the '80s and has 6 cylinders.
Gonna reveal it tomorrow. I sent the deposit today and my friend is going to pick it up tomorrow and store it with him. It's in ...
