    my 5 is coming together

    ok been working on my 5 for a while after having to reshell it
    problem i have its all been done on my drive way, so weather plays a major part in when i can work on it
    anyway
    what it looked like on the old shell....

    then i started the rebuild on the new shell


    then i got it sprayed inside and out



    then the engine









    and this what it looks like so far





    almost finshed just a few little bits and bobs left

    looks much better than what it was like with the old shell

    the only thing that i dont like is how youve got the intercooler sitting.
