    FS: '89 325i w/ s50 Feeler

    What price would you pay for this thing?

    Details: http://www.throgodesign.com/e30specs/BMWe30.htm

    Interior Pics: To come...

    Wondering if it would be worth it to fix up the body beyond just the front valence and lip (which I have but need to be painted)?

    Interior is in great shape (9/10).

    Chassis has ~228,000 miles, engine ~125,000.

    I was thinking $5,700 was fair as long as I have the valence and lip installed and all of the other mods on the list installed before the sale. Am I shooting way beyond the mark?

    Located in Utah.

    Thx.

    i would be more concerned about the rear quarter panel than the front valence and lip...

    if the rear quarter can be pushed back out, then if i was a buyer i might be intrested at 6. However if that rear quarter is screwed... i personally would not want to go quite that high due to body shop costs to get the quarter fixed... other people may have differing opinions though. Good luck with the sale.

      Yeah, had the whole passenger side quoted to have fixed and painted at an awesome body shop (last car I saw in there was a GT40). They quoted me $1000 for that whole side including the rear quarter panel and the front and rear fender, but I think that was approximate.

        u stated the engine is a s50b30 is this correct, is your motor Euro spec?
        i think your price is to low if its euro spec and to high if its US spec. but not by a lot, just the panel needs to be addressed

          Sounds like the panel is the biggest problem. I'm dropping the car off at a body shop later this week to have it all worked out. I will post new pictures soon.

                  New interior and engine bay pictures

                  Here are some new pictures of my engine bay and the interior of the car.

                  The gauge needles are totally white--yeah, I know. I am looking for replacements now.

                  The wiring harness cover back half wasn't sent to me so I am waiting on that hence the reason for the mess.

                      Did you ever get the rear quarter panel fixed?

                        Yeah just got it back from the shop. I didn't post the pictures because I'm waiting for the clips from PelicanParts for the side molding. I will post pics as soon as I get them.
