Abgasanlage: Bmw 760LI Individual Project 2

[zetecturbo]

As the title says .

Have had this car since may 2017 and only drove it once since i bought it .

Wasnt happen with an issue from previous owner ,hydraulic pipes going to rear swaybar had corroded quiet common on these and wanker looped it back on itself so no rear active swaybar and only way to replace is drop the rear axle completely .so as u can imagine ramp is required so with the ongoing project of my shed it held up alot of things .fast forward i now have the floor done and ramp up etc thought it was time i started on this beast .

As this car is 1 of only 1in rhd with the spec it has ive decided to go to town on it .it will be a very slow process due to funds and time to do it so updates will be slow .

Plan is to remove everything from the gearbox back to the rear and replace with new and powdercoat and clean back floor and epoxy prime .raptor full seal and then reprime full topcoat .

Ive made a small start

Fully stripped underneath axle out fuel tank etc .some surface rust not much all cleaned back to bare metal and treated and thats it for now

Hi there,

you only drove it ONCE since 2017 ???
What other cars do you have? Bentley, Rolls Royce, Aston Martin or such?

Only a joke, not to offend you in any way!

Seems, you bought it just because you need something to play with / rebuild it.

Anyway, interesting to see a car like ours without the rear axle.

Keep going and much fun in the process of rebuilding.

Cheers
Thomas

I actually bought it to drive but when i discovered what the previous owner had did with the rear swaybar i decided the axle needed to come out and it was a ramp job and not worth tackling on axle stands .i decided to finish my shed and get a ramp .before u know it a day turned into a week and a week into a year and so on and it was forgot about .it doesnt help that i have a 2003 bmw 760li individual to and a 2003 760li and a 2004 745li individual either .ive now got a fire under me to get all 4 cars the way i want them .the main plan is and dont laugh .instead of mpst people having winter and summer tyres .im going to have a winter and summer car so basically 2003 760li individual for the winter and then this car for the summer and if all goes to plan both will have full alpina kits .and maybe the other 2 cars then as backups bit also used to split the milage across them all so i dont end up with high milage on them and hopefully get a few years out of them
