I am. A 318 e36. Hope to get the basic bare metal chassis completed over xmas. Then trial fit engine/gbox and do mods for mountings.

Have modified the rear uprights to suit modified BMW hubs. Diff mounts altered as well.

Any pictures of your progress would be great. Also your ideas of mods to the standard chassis.
