I have owned the car for 3 1/2 years and in that time the car has undergone a full restoration. When I purchased the car it had been used very little over the 4 years the previous owner had owned it but he had kept it in a climate controlled car storage bubble so the rust on the car was minimal which is rare for one of these cars. The car was in a very presentable condition when I bought it and could have been used straight away but I am a perfectionist when it comes to my cars and I wanted to make this car the best I possibly could. If you have any experience with bmw cars or their parts department you will know how expensive the older bmws can be to restore especially the M cars. Below is a breakdown of the things I have done. You can see the sort of money I have put into this car and every specialist job. paint. welding. engine work. transmission work has been carried out by bmw qualified mechanics. I never intended to sell this car but I have a young family and a busy job and cant justify owning such a car it deserves to be driven more than it is. The car has covered just over 144000 miles about 2500 miles in my ownership. Everything that has been done on the car has covered less than 2500 miles. I have two folders thick of receipts for all the work and even kept the old timing chain and guides so to prove its been done 100%.
Bodywork
The rust on the car was confined to the front wings. a small patch on the drivers foot well and two small sections on both lower rear arches. The wings were removed and sent to a specialist classic car restorer the wings were carefully stripped back to bare metal and repaired to as new standard and sprayed in 2 pac primer and two coats of POR15 Rust paint on the inside. these wings will never rust again. The inner wings and trumpet sections were completely rust free due to this being one of the last M635's made and therefore it had better galvanised panels and rust protection from the factory. I purchased two full new rear arch sections from Germany and cut off the small sections required for repair the arches so as to get a perfect finish. The floor panel was repaired by making a section and is as good as new. The car then had a complete glass out respray by a bmw trained and current bmw painter in the correct shade of Diamond metallic black. On completion of the paint all rubber door. boot. sunroof and engine seals were replaced for new. New bumper rubbing strips and front boomerang section fitted. New shadow line lower window trims and upper shadow line aluminium gutter trims. All new engine sound deadening as well.
