Documenting the restoration of a 1960 BMW 700 Sport Coupe done in our garage. A full nut and bolt rebuild from the ground up. The plan is to make a custom rally car drawing on inspiration from the 700 RS, the 700 rennsport and the Willi Martini prepped race cars.

"Special" paint
I got this amazing product made by a company called SEM that is a three part process for painting leather, vinyl and plastic. They claim that you can even use it for seats. I am using it for the door handles, dash knobs and door sill plates. Since I am doing a custom black vinyl interior, the various shades of off white and grey that these parts came in had to go. I did the handles first just to make sure I knew what I was doing. I have two sets of them, so if I had screwed this up I had back ups. Glad to say it went on smooth and tomorrow I will do the other parts.
