Legends Never Die

If he ruined a perfectly good e28 to make it the way it is now, I'd be 100% against it. I HATE when people ruin good cars to follow this trend.

However, the car was junk. I'd much rather see this project come of it, than have it rot in a junkyard.

I didn't realize this was a complete resurrection. Pretty impressive from that standpoint I guess

oh wow, i didnt realize this was the same car until i saw the windshield. i was actually re-reading the article about it in S3 last night lol.

i REALLY like this car, the whole story behind it and the creativity and personality put into it. it just oozes style. and if it had been done like this and not been headed to the junkyard, i would have hated it.

and really, who the hell else would put a 1jz in a 5-series

This is also like... well, the "rust trend" version of stickydiljoe's car. Joey didn't do anything new... but he did a whole lot of things right. As far as CB7s go in terms of "JDM" and "clean" styles, he pretty much set the bar. The rat-rod style is certainly nothing new. It wasn't new to the euro crowd when this car came about. However, this guy pretty much set the standard. He defined the euro-rat.

I still think it should have had the M88/3 in it instead.

I love it!!! I'll rock it

I love it!!! I'll rock it

x2.

Like Deev touched on; If it were in mint condition prior to this, I'd hate it. But, he saved it from the crusher. He put his own style into it, which IMO looks amazing.

Has anyone ever seen Shaun of the Dead?
It's like the end, where he's playing video games with Ed

oh btw thos wheels are AC schnitzer type one race wheels built for 80's and early 90's BMW's. Thats when they were made. i think the period is correct dude.

If that isn't one of the descriptions for "awesome", then I don't know what is.

ya I agree if it wasn't gonna be dumped then ya not so much. but knowing the history of this car makes it too.

[MikeW]

Hm, didnt know they were one in the same.

And yes, this is old news. He "retired" it or whatever, a little while back.

It looks cool and all and i applaud the effort, but it just isnt my cup of tea.

[esskater892]

yup and before that it was just the rusted hood.

he kinda did this as an april fools joke. had it as the shark and all, then said it died. well took out rusty's motor and put in a 1jz. lol this car will never die!
