In this episode of Adam LZ, the team embarks on a daring mission to revive a severely damaged FD E36, returning to the very shop where its journey began. Despite the daunting challenges presented by twisted strut towers and a compromised structure, the team remains undeterred, fueled by the car's rich history and unique features like a carbon roof and a solid roll cage. Their decision to potentially reshell the car showcases a blend of pragmatism and passion for automotive restoration.
A visit to a friend's E36 for parts takes an unexpected turn when they realize the components are not compatible, leading to a salvage operation for much-needed sedan doors from a scrapped vehicle. The team's banter and camaraderie shine through as they navigate setbacks and adapt to changing plans, injecting humor and spontaneity into their quest for restoration excellence.
As they provide updates on the 335 project and tease future LZ World Tour plans, the team displays a commitment to delivering top-notch experiences for fans, whether in person or through carefully crafted video content. The donation of an E36 Coupe for parts injects new energy into the restoration project, setting the stage for a race against time to strip the car and transfer essential components. The collaborative effort with Reed from Car Struction adds a layer of community spirit to the project, highlighting the power of teamwork in the world of automotive restoration.
