I picked up my phone just to comment on this. You retouching on your E36 means a lot to me as it’s one of the most influential cars to me growing up since seeing the fluid motor works video as a kid. This car has given me immeasurable amounts of motivation over the years and probably ignited my love for the E36 and E46 chassis. I just wanted to take the time to thank you for never letting go of what is seen as a legend in my eyes . Absolutely love to see this car back , and I’ll be tagging along every step of the way

yes yes yes. the sound of the s54 with the stacks is potent and intoxicating

I'm still not over how this rocked the benz monoblocks so effortlessly. Let's gooooo

Seeing this 36 again brings back all those memories of the SW forum days ❤️❤️

Ok. I rarely comment on YT, but this project pulls at my heart strings. When I was in college, I went to test drive used cars with my brother and he found an E36 - Alpine 325is - that we bought on the spot. After driving that thing like twice, I immediately took out a small loan and shopped around for my own. We found a '93 Granitsilber 325is in my price range and I've never gone a day of my life since without owning at least one E36. After learning everything that can go wrong (and right) about the chassis, that poor car was ready to move on (headgasket leak because somehow the water pump impeller and thermostat somehow both took a dump) and I sold it to another young kid looking for a college project car, but my dream has always been to build out a GSM E36 exactly like this (or even to find that one and clean it back up). I will be watching this eagerly and hope some day to see it in person!

I was driving in my neighborhood and caught a glimpse of your Ferrari through the garage door. Had no idea you were right there, small world!

Ferrari, #1 project, thank you. Lots of YT build channels, who don't finish the project.

I'm in! I've owned a Eurosport twin-screwed 95M3 for 20 years. Long time E36 lover!

I didn’t think I’d be interested in this build, until you gave all the background. Nice job.

Really excited to see where this goes. Already an impressive build and machine as it sits. Really appreciate the introduction. Nice to see someone mod what they have instead of jumping on the "it's cheaper to just buy an M3" bandwagon.

Liked before even watching the video. I’m so stoked, I remember this car from google years ago and it being my screensaver. Fast forwards a good amount of years and I now own a Granit silber slicktop e36 coupe. Literally fell into my hands and I didn’t even know until recently that Mikes car is also granit silber. Ecstatic to watch this series!!

As cool as the Ferrari build is, this one is a lot more relatable. Can't wait to see the progress!

I'm glad to hear that. I'm hoping it helps to balance things out. Not every car needs to be over-the-top.

Very excited to see this. I have a 97 M3 that I bought when I was 18, I’m 24 now. It’s been sitting in my backyard for the last 4 years basically on a tender and under a car cover. I still start it up. Car needs valve stem seals and an entire top end tho to be roadworthy. about 4 years of parts accumulation in the trunk as well, I’m hoping to tear into the motor soon. This is the inspiration I need haha.

Good for Khalil! Hope parts come in soon for the K swapped 308 GTB.

"I've got a pretty good track record of finishing my builds"......attacking the entire car community at once huh? Lol

YES! That's exactly the motivation i needed. Love E36`s in general, love this one, make it great again. Keep the content coming.

Clicked for E36. Subscribed for Ferrari and M3 (and E36). Actually I'm excited to see the E36 build.

This S/W E36! 😎Thanks Mike for make me realize I am old and that I am pretty exited to see the new build!

The car and the AWOL video is the reason i know about you and Stanceworks. For me personally it was one of the coolest E36 at this time!

Switches cameras to show imperfections*** E36: Absolutely no imperfections 😂

This is one of my dream cars. Dark grey, slicktop, M bumpers, S54. Can't express enough how much I want one :(

My new favourite channel, first the Ferrari....then the E36.....you really are spoiling us!

Bring it on. I wanna see it in person someday. Definitely an OG in the E36 game.

Got me interested, man! Will for sure be keeping tabs on your channel.

I'm very happy to see this car come to light again. I grew up admiring this car, during the bf.c days. Inspired me to put ACS Type 2's on my E46 M3. Subscribed!

Super excited when I saw this blast from the past on the feed. Cant wait to enjoy the rebuild of this! Keep up the great work Bfurroughs

Great, now I'm motivated to get my E36 going again. Now I just need to make time lol.

If you want it done, you have to find the time. No two ways about it!

originally came for the E36, pleasantly suprised with Ferrari content, glad to see some new E36 content

Cant wait to see this come back to life

I really hope this channel blows up in a good way!

Looking forward to seeing this build. I really enjoyed the history lesson giving the background on that particular E36 as it offers a nice insight into the 'story' of the car which is always nice to hear. Seeing those old photos reminded me of when I had a 97 318is in red on black cloth (quite rare) and without a sunroof (it was an option on the 318). I really liked the car but eventually sold it when the sound of the engine just got to me. The 6 cylinder was just so much nicer than the boomy 4. Best of luck; I'm sure it will be awesome.

Another Great project Mike! I'm excited to see the progress on this build. Thanks for all the entertainment.

Good to see the rear wheel arches getting back to original. Over here in Europe there are plenty guys who break down E36 and sell those parts. Switzerland might be the best place to search. They have mainly a good spec and not too much sun. Shipping should be no problem.

@Alpha Worx UK is a death penalty for cars. The weather just eats them up

YES! Dude this is one of my favorite cars, glad you're making this content

I have a ZHP swapped with a s54. Did it in my garage solo, was a 50 wire change on the harness, no joke on an install thats for sure. Love your car cant wait to see it finished 👍🔥

The LTW wing is definitely a nice touch. Love how clean the body work and paint is! They did an excellent job.

Honestly like all your cars/builds. Good range of vehicles, purpose, and content.

I love old bmw’s So happy to see this thing getting out back together. You are becoming one of my favorite KZreadrs since I came across your channels few months ago. Keep it up.

It's great to see you working on the E36. I really loved seeing this car on Stanceworks back in the day after the S54 swap.

Hell yeah looking forward to this build as well 🙌🙌

It`s nice to have a some different content . I work on multiple things at a time myself just because of the time it takes to find the parts you need and it is just the way I am .

I’m so damn pumped for e36 thursdays! I love the Ferrari content but BMW IS WHERE THE HEART IS lol.

Yes OG boys. Might have to hunt an E36 again for myself. Love the content bro. Keep it up.

This I my favorite channel! The e36 content is going to be insane! If this doesn’t give me motivation to finish my M3 I don’t know what will.

The montage brought back so many memories. Great wheel choice this time around, can't wait to see them finished,

The Madman is doing it!!!!!

Looking forward to watching the resurrection, as this is the car that first drew you and your channel to my attention. Excellent stuff.

Can’t wait for this e36 build series.

That is one of the most beautiful e36 I have seen the e36 is really a work of art I have both e36 m3 and e46 m3 and I love my e36 best so much fun to drive !

I'm so excited!

Love it. Cant wait for the next episode

You got me right away, so much of a E36 guy myself ❤️‍🔥

Also got my E36 m43b18 back in 2004. Big memories with it. Build it , it had an 335i engine in. So I blow that engine in last year March(2020). But then Lockdown hit. (My daily also broken , at that time). At the end ,(July 2020) swap my baby for an VW Mk1 Jetta and Peugeot 206. Got 2 cars, but that E36! Miss that car everyday ... ( Given an m50b20 engine with, that the new owner fitted)

Can’t wait to see where this one leads 😁

New subscriber and have been tuning in 2x a week since Joey Lee visited you. Love the Ferrari but definitely excited for the bimmer especially after hearing about its history and sentimental value it holds. I don't watch TV so I've been looking for quality car content on KZread. I definitely found it. Keep up the great content!

Seeing all the old pics took me back to the bf.c R&S days. Man I feel old now. The good news is there's going to be some SW E36 hangs soon I'm sure.

Looking forward to the build and learning more about BMW. Happy belated birthday Mike!!

Surprised you don't have more subs, you're absolutely killing it! Love tuning into your vids.

EXCELLENT - This will be an interesting transformation build. Your channel rocks - keep sharing your enthusiasm, energy and DIY tips and hacks.

"E36 Thursday" has a nice ring to it...

Thanks Mike! Always wanted to know more about this.

looking forward to this

Another beautiful car, you are really living the dream! Cheers from your Australian fans!

I’ll be following this closely. My first e36 coupe was a granite silver car back in 2011, and I currently have a granite silver sedan.

6:10 BMWs on AC Schnitzers are fire. By far my favorite wheels for these.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAN!

Hell yeah brother! Love this.

Big fan here! I'm watching all the episodes.

I came for the K-swapped Ferrari, but I’ll definitely enjoy watching the E36 build as well. Really enjoying your channel.

So...I have a '94 E36 slick top that's sat around since 2009. Always wanted to do exactly what u have/are doing with yours so I'm definitely following

Great stuff!

Most famous e36 for a longtime!

I am in the throes of an S54 swap now. I hear you on the first tribulations, it is much easier today for sure with all the information out there. While completed here it will be interesting to see the mods you are doing. Love me some TN roads!

History lesson was needed to enjoy this build to the max. Immaculate vibe on the video

Yep! Love it🤙

M-B wheels on an E36 M3??? Heresy! lol. As an E36 M3 4/5 owner, I am definitely interested in this content. Great to see more E36 work on KZread.

cant wait!

Amazing and go ahead 👍

Ahh the AWOL shoot. I remember that like it was yesterday with my jaw dropped. That was just a media company that became rotiform I believe.

Super dope!!!

This car was the main reason why I bought my e36 back in 2010.

I never knew it was your e36! I even posted the picture of your e36 so I can get the specs and I couldn't find it now it here!

Seeing monoblocks on a bmw blew my mind. It doesn't look bad.

Clean the seam sealer away from the front sway bar mounts to the rails, you will see that the outer side has about 1/8-3/16 gap that needs to be welded too.

Bmw and Honda you got taste mateeee

HAPPY (now belated) BIRTHDAY!!!

Love the color!

Yeeeewww! This will be swt to watch...

My forever car is an e36, and the first car i did stuff to was an e36 aswell. Im on my 7th one. This one ill keep forever.

Old school bfc member. Still have mine too. Might I suggest going back to the non-M bumpers - at this point they're unique.

I love e36s! Some might say they are overplayed on yt but I say the more the merrier

Let's go!!!

i am here for the bmw content baybeee!!

E36 is a classic. I wish I could find a decent one for a project.

This is nice, good to remember what nice BMW actually look like. I know it's subjective. but I like my coupés a bit squarish.

The true og e36 so happy
