    NOW ON EBAY:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...#ht_882wt_1165


    My family started going through some financial hardships recently and we feel it is best to let this one go as it isn't a necessity. This was my dad's pride and joy and if you know my father, you would know that he has to have everything spot on or else it isn't worth his time. He has taken care of this car like no other and basically brought it back from the grave. The car started as a big bumper convertible which sat in someones driveway just rotting away. We picked it up in November and immediately started the restoration. Car has been fully rust treated and a 88+ tail section has been grafted on the back aswell as plastic bumpers and valences fitted. Car was also freshly repainted to a newer bmw color, Cosmosshwarz metallic. Engine was fully refreshed as well. A fresh rebuilt head was put on, new headgasket and other miscellaneous gaskets, hoses, etc.
    ENGINE:
    m20b25 with 190k miles
    refreshed head and headgasket 500 miles ago
    fresh gaskets, hoses, etc.
    painted IM/VC
    Timing belt/waterpump done 500 miles ago.
    New Fuses
    Fresh starter and ground cables

    This is seriously a head turner around here. All the rust has been taken care of and it is another example of a clean rustbelt car. Dash has no cracks and everything is up to date!. Perfect car to take to the beach, oh and the chicks really dig it ;).

        I am loving the Cosmos! That's the color I will be doing my car once I have it painted.

                    How are the electronics in this car? I'm curious about things such as seat warmers, all the windows, and most importantly the A/C. I see a lot of good in this post, but it's only smart of me to ask about the bad.

                    Feel free to PM me any info please.
                    Thank you

                      ah right, forgot to mention those things. Seat warmers do not work, I'm currently looking into it as I want to have that fixed. Windows all work, A/C has been removed but was working before it was removed. I have all the components which will be included in the sale. Thanks!

                          Unless you would consider reinstalling the A/C? Let me know.
