1989 325i Coupe, Delphin, 5MT, $1500, NH
While the engine runs great since I bought it a few years back, and drives okay, it's likely buyer will be someone looking for a parts car or lemons racer. Over the past few years of ownership, it's seen about $4k in parts into it, but very little time on the road, and I've simply ran out of momentum on fixing it up. Originally an automatic, I've swapped in a getrag 260 and 4.10 LSD. It also has 14" basketweaves on crappy old rubber.
Located in Dover, NH.
The good:
-4.10 clutch type LSD
-New clutch and CSB, (Remainder of manual swap was used parts)
-Timing belt, water pump, & thermostat (2 years, but basically no miles on this)
-All coolant hoses and thermostat housing
-New control arms, outer tie rods, front sway bar links, & powerflex offset FCAB
-Rear subframe bushings and trailing arm bushings (OE rubber)
-Hard and soft brake lines from ABS to rear calipers
-Rear calipers
-Hard fuel lines (send and return)
-Odo gears & instrument panel lights
-Battery and fuseable link
-E-Brake cables
-Rear wheel bearings
-BavAuto and H&R lowering springs
-Interior is reasonable clean, Drivers seat bottom pad tearing
The Bad:
-Rust. Rust is this car biggest weakness. Its ugly. This is why I say this will be a parts car or a lemons car most likely. Plus plenty of dents, scratches, and clear coat missing.
-Steering rack is toast (jack moved off subframe and onto rack - PS worked before this, currently turns lock to lock w/o PS, but very notchy)
-ABS system disabled (electrical fault)
-Central locking will lock but not unlock
-Brakes are somewhat spongy
-A few warning lights for minor sensors, but no CEL
-Tires are dry rotted
-E-Brake parts are removed (but ready to be reinstalled)
-Glovebox handle/lock broken
-Hood release cable broken
-Missing windshield washer fluid hose to hood
As you can see, lots of bad, but turn this into a race car: swap in a e36 rack, patch up the rust (or not), and have some fun!
Test drives and ramp check out's welcome of course.
