Default loving the other car

Finally caught up with a bunch of little jobs yesterday on the other much loved car in the garage , a 1986 BMW 635.

She enjoyed an oil change, air filter change, replaced radiator cowl (warped after 28 years), replaced rear roll bar rubbers and exhaust hanger rubbers, replaced the blown bulbs in the onboard computer display with a led replacement board from the US of A, replaced a sticky brake light switch and replaced the radio head unit with one that has a USB input.

A very satisfying day in the garage

Nice one Yarpos, Those BMW 635's were a beast of a car in their day, and still a good looking vehicle imo

How about shooting up a few pics?

It's always a satisfying day in the garage when you are working on your cars.

Always loved the 635CSI since Denny Hulme and Peter Brock punted one around Bathurst.
