Hi All...

Long time not posting in this thread but I did on other topics and got great help from other members... Appreciate all the help from the E28 community... They made everything easy to sort out...

On the short version of the story, the end of all this got delayed another week after my holyday, and I just got the car back from the garage yesterday:) 

Right on time for our monthly meeting on the BMW Car Club of Costa Rica..
Sad is i could not take any worth shot with the camera...
Today I tried, but had to deal with some work and kids homework.... I need to split the time fr cars and a 6 members family:) 

Anyway my kids are always fun...

Here is one pic I managed to take yesterday on his shower after leaving the garage...

It will need to return temporarily to deal with some minor details and to install the Deko Kit:) 

The car ran smooth after 3 months of no use... I had to replace the Brake pump on Thursday because it seems the old one just decided to die...

Thanks God i could manage to find the original ATE pump for about $100 locally...

I should be shooting some pics on a open spot next Tuesday or Wednesday when i`m planning to drive the car again.... For now is sitting on the Garage as a Queen:) 

After the Deko Kit is installed, I will add another pics and consider this restoration completed ...

One more time thanks everyone!!

And here is the shower pic....

The Touring 2002 belongs to a good friend...


That car was restored on the same shop where I did the B9...

He usually visited the garage with me to give me some support on the hard days:) 

That one is a `74... Whe should be shooting some pics of both cars soon...


And Well....

While writing this I just remember that sticker I attahced to the rear glass...

Everyone knows Who we need to ask for these:) 

I am the worst person in the world to take a picture at night....

Thanks Matt!
