Fantastic job. I had a 633 in the early eighties. Beautiful car. More understated than the 635 but very comfortable and a pleasure to drive. A classic.
the only thing you would have done differently is to save the driver's seat, there are excellent professionals who would have brought it back to life, more expensive but it would have added value to the project... the engine would also certainly need updating but above all it is useful lower the set-up with sports suspension because this car has some problems changing direction
got a 635csi, did more or less the same Restoration as you did except the front seats. always love to see a uni black single stage black paint getting detailed, so satisifing😍 sadly the thing with the speakers in the door panels, but its the 80s😅
Beautiful! It takes a slecial person to tackle a project like this. Thank you for saving this car. It's too soecial of a car to no longer be driven and enjoyed!
@@lucidwerkz I know exactly what you mean. I'm currently restoring a very much neglected Mitsubishi Evo. Once it's done, I'm hoping to add an E24 next.
I am struggling with my 1977 633CSI as when i opened the trunk it would not close again as it opened to far and when i closed it again using a little bit too much force i now can no longer get it open again and am wondering how i can get it open
Whoa, hold up! Did I just witness someone shamelessly swipe a TikTok video and pass it off as their own on RU-vid? 🤨 That's like stealing someone's masterpiece and slapping your name on it! Talk about a major breach of trust and creativity! It takes blood, sweat, and tears to create content, and to have it blatantly stolen is just plain wrong. It's like trying to sell someone else's recipe as your own gourmet creation. Not cool, folks, not cool at all! Let's all agree to respect creators' hard work and give credit where credit is due. Otherwise, it's just a one-way ticket to copyright infringement city. 🚫👎 #RespectContentCreators #NotCoolBro
Sure!! I started off with wet sanding the whole car with 3000 grit KXK sanding discs, then Rupes Coarse wool pad with Griots Fast Correcting Cream, then final polish with Rupes Yellow Foam pad and CarPro Essence Polish! These steps were required with the condition of the paint and final results were great!
Great work, I saw this and other videos and you did a great job, congrats. Do you have a procedure for removing the door panels and did the electric windows work properly in yours? When you remove the door handle, is that one screw only? Looking to do some work on my 635csi 1979 here in Europe...Thank you
Thanks man! I have another video where I take apart and get the window motors working again in this car. I was also unsure at first how to remove the door panel since this was my first E24. Usually I just go to realoem.com and they have blow up diagrams of part in the vehicle where it show how everything goes together. Check it out!
basic hand tools, torque wrenches, and torque angle tools are needed, feeler gauges for valve clearance, and specialty tools for the seals can be found at Company23's website!
this is exceptional and I did not know there was a spray to refinished old carpets. HA HA. you just solved a huge problem I had with another car im working on....and by working on I am not anyone that knows how to do much but Im going to attempt. Also, I am looking at a 1984 CSI today. Its gonna need this and more and your lovely video is a fantastic inspiration.
Hi, good work, love it. But could you answer me two questions? How did u pay for the car ? and. What is the cost of a BMW 633csi Restoration? thank you!
I paid cash for the car, lol, do you mean how much did i pay for the car? the cost of the car varies depending on the condition of the car. the cost of restoring also varies depending on how deep of a restoration you want to do. All in i think it cost less than $6000 including the car.
Quite enjoyable to watch! Curious why you went with the OEM oil pickup and baffle? With it being a weak spot in the factory setup, i figured a fresh rebuild would be the ideal time to do a Killer B pickup and baffle or IAGs.
Since the entire car is going back to all stock, and up to the new owner if they want to modify the engine. It didn't seem worth it for me to spend the money on those upgrades. For a daily driver OEM is perfectly fine, if you start to track the car or go higher power then yeah Killer B is a great option. 👍
@lucidwerkz True true, makes sense. Car going back to all stock, that bad boy is getting sold haha. Honestly can't say I blame them. It's a love/hate relationship with the Subarus.
Yup i have another VA STi that makes 400whp. I will be rebuilding that one with more upgrades in another video and go over the benefits of each upgrade.
@@lucidwerkzI am doing the same, I need new block and I will put everything back to stock, you think the car will be reliable as it was before the mods? Its a 2021 STI, i want it for daily use
I require some assistance if you could please help ..I recently bought a 1977 633 CSI BMW and the passenger door mirror did not work electrically and when i removed the mirror it just had bare wires with no plug so i bought a replacement mirror which has the plug but i am struggling to find out how to pass the plug inside the door to connect to the other connection as the old mirror pulled out easily because it was just bare wires
