Bagged Calypsorot 1990 325i 5 Speed W/tons of extras available
I've decided it might be time to actually consider letting this thing go. With so much else on my plate and time running out before a major move, I really don't see possibly finishing this thing the way I'd like by the end of the summer, and would rather let somebody else take over than stick it in a corner to collect dust for however long it takes to get back to it.
If I can't find a good home for the car, it'll go into longer term storage and be finished when I have a chance to get to it, so with that said, I'M NOT LOOKING TO PART ANYTHING OUT (except the s50 swap), unless the car were to sell first without it. I know this is long, but please read everything before reaching out with questions. Thank You.
-1990 BMW 325i
-Calypsorot (typical clear coat failure)
-Perfectly preserved, solid, CA car, with records to prove it. I'd legitimately never seen such a straight and solid E30 in our area
-Right around 205k IIRC. ODO gears have been replaced but speedometer is still intermittent so I?d expect mileage to be a bit higher.
-NO rot at all, anywhere on the car. No corrosion anywhere at all really, save for a 3 square inch area of surface rust in front of the driver's rear wheel that was treated and sprayed with black rattle can paint. The clear coat is in rough shape as stated, so with plans of a respray I just made sure to keep it from actually rusting.
-The undercarriage is also in amazing shape. No corrosion, no rusted bolts, nothing. It's a dream to work on compared to any other older car I've owned.
-The M20b25 runs great, pulls strong, with no major leaks or noises, anything like that. Got a full tune-up when I picked it up, all new fluids, filters, plugs, etc, and has gotten all it's regular maintenance done since. I have stacks of receipts and I think records from the previous owners (and myself)to show. Current engine is pretty much unmodified short of a SuperSprint muffler.
-The original Tan Comfort Interior is in beautiful condition with only normal signs of use. A seam is starting to split on the driver's seat, some normal staining and discoloration on the tan carpet, and a broken bracket for the driver's side dome light, couple small cracks on the dash
-Full Airlift system with V2 Digital management.
-6x7.5 Borbet Type A's
-Fully rebuilt rear subframe and suspension with adjustable camber tabs and poly bushings everywhere
-Fully rebuilt and swapped in a 3.73LSD
-The Thule setup will most likely be staying with me.
The "additionals":
-16x8.5 and 9.5 BBS RT's with 3 and 4" lips also available. Brand new setup
- I have a mostly complete s50/ZF swap available for the car
-I have a complete S38B36 drivetrain w/ g265 and all sorts of other parts
-I have an original survivor set of tan cloth Recaro KRS' from the 80's that I picked up complete with all the original paperwork, stickers, even lumbar pads. Custom brackets for E30 to factory recaro sliders. One of the nicest sets of OG Recaro?s I?ve ever seen, imho.
-I have a complete late model (type 2) BBS body kit that I had shipped over from France. This includes front bumper, rear bumper, skirts and cladding, all in amazing shape for their age. Also tracked down a matching BBS heckspoiler and shipped that in from Russia to go with it. These kits are incredibly rare, as you might assume.
-I have some nardi/momo wheels and shift knobs
-I have a mint husco armrest in the car.
-etc etc
TO CONCLUDE:
I'm not offering this as a cheap abandoned project, but more for someone who understands the value in starting with such a clean, complete car as a base for the rest of the project (and honestly we're using "project" loosely here, as it's a head turner and a reliable cruiser as it sits, I just want to see it taken to the next level).
Obviously there are endless variables here, so pricing can vary. I'm asking 8k as it sits on the Air and Borbets, and other items can be packaged in from there. Best bet is to email me at MattCashman9@gmail.com with more questions or interest.
