    FS: 1989 325iC ~190k miles $6500 (long ad)

    $6000, if youre interested make an offer


    Its been a long run but its time for this car to find a new family. Like i said in the title this is gonna be a long FS ad.



    For sale here is a 325iC build date 1/89. The vehicle has an approximate 190k miles on it. As you know odometers in these cars have many ways to fail and the odometer in this car has failed twice making the mileage a bit of a guess. The car has Alpine White II paint with Indigo Leather interior and a matching navy convertible top.

    This car was purchased from the original owner by my dad in January of 1994 and has since been handed down to my sister (1999) then to myself (2002). In the time that the car has been mine virtually every wearable part has been replaced. I have made a spreadsheet, from memory, with the parts that have been replaced and the approximate mileage since their replacement.

    Some modifications on this car include:
    -Eibach Prokit Springs
    -Bilstein Sport Shocks
    -Street Urethan Subframe mounts
    -Urethane Trailing Arm Mounts
    -Urethane centered CABs
    -87 iS front valence w/ Hella aftermarket foglights (not the prettiest install i have to say)
    -IE SS catback
    -Upgraded Speakers with single 2 channel amp (other amp hookups already run)
    -Mtech 1 Steering Wheel
    -16x7 Mille Miglia Cello Wheels (including full size spare)
    -BF Goodrich g-Force Sport tires (all 5) ~75% useable tread left
    -Coupe Trunk lid (i have the conv lid if you want it)
    -e36 m3 Short Shifter (stock e36 m lever)

    *Note i didnt include maintenance parts in there, i can provide a more complete list if neccesary

    In some of these pictures you can see a RD rear apron, i have it and if you want it you can have it with the car. The reason it isnt on at the moment is the IE muffler tip exits interfere with the apron.

    As i said the car was purchased in '94 and before it was given to me it was serviced by shops and many reciepts were saved. Since it came to me i havent been as good at documenting work i have done to it.



















    The only reason im selling it is because i know now that i have a coupe the convertible will not be driven much, and that shouldnt be so.

    Im sure there is more that could be included but i will leave it here for now, and update as more comes to me.

    Remember, I dont care if you think the price is too high, so please keep those comments to yourself. Make an offer if you dont like the price, the worst i'll say is no.

    Thanks for lookin,

    Chris

    Just thought of a few things right after i hit submit.

    Interior:

    Front seats have been recovered with new Indigo leather from creative options
    Rear seat bottom is split in the middle and hard (needs to be recovered)
    Rear seat back is in good condition id say 7/10
    Dash has a few cracks, i included a picture of the most visible crack
    Carpet has been redyed navy
    Door panels are in excellent condition (if mitch reads this perhaps he'll chime in)
    new leather shift boot and ebrake boot
    Mtech 1 wheel has been recovered (stitching needs to be redone, im no seamstress)
    E36 switches
    Code Alarm alarm system

    Suspension:

    Eibachs
    Billies
    Lemfroeder Control Arms
    Lemf Tie Rods

    Engine:
    Stock b25 motor with ~150k miles on it
    some of you may know that i had a 3.0l stroker in this car, that engine has been removed and replaced with a stock m20b25

    While swapping in the engine i replaced:
    T-Belt
    Water Pump
    Cam Seal
    Rear Main Seal
    Clutch (Full)
    Oil pan gasket
    Power Steer Res and fluid
    Magnercor Wires
    Dist Cap and Rotor
    Motor mounts
    Trans Mounts

    I just completed the swap this past weekend and will hopefully start driving the car (to make sure it all works well) this week.

    Have done an R134 conversion but have not ever had the system vacuumed and filled, i will try to do that soon.

                        i would imagine so, i plan on putting some miles on the fresh engine swap before letting it go to make sure there arent any issues.
