    FS/FT in NJ: RUST FREE 1988 325ic...Updated

    UPDATE: This is officially a running and driving car, you can get in it and drive it as is, and it's actually pretty dang cool looking too.

    I have just installed the following:
    -Euro front valance with rare Pfeba front air dam in great condition. I also picked up a nice set of front and rear chrome euro bumpers, full setup purchased from Levent at gutenparts
    -Crack free mint dash
    -BavAuto lowering springs
    -New ebrake console from Bavauto
    -New ZHP weighted shift knob
    -New perforated leather shift boot
    -Bavauto performance plug wire set
    -New Bosch plugs
    -Liqui-Moly Purple synthetic oil change and new filter
    -Coolant flush with new coolant

    I brought this car in from Arizona where it lived it's entire life, therefore is truly RUST FREE! I paid a pretty penny to purchase this car and have it sent over. The body and engine have roughly 220k on them but fortunately it was an automatic that was owned by a female, so chances are the engine was driven delicately...We then proceeded to do a full 5-speed swap and installed a low mileage manual trans with all new seals, fluids, bushings, NEW Clutch plate, pressure plate and flywheel, new clutch master and slave cylinders and we just did a fresh TB/ WP/ tensioner change. Also including the polished rocker cover shown.

    The car runs great, and the body is absolutely RUST FREE, straight, and beautiful! The desert sun had beat the clearcoat pretty badly so we were prepping it for a full respray, and now it sits in 2k primer currently and is ready to be painted. It's a complete car, just partially disassembled for paint, but you will get everything for the car, full driveline is complete and installed, the car IS RUNNING AND DRIVING.

    The front seats are pretty nice with only minor splitting of a couple seams on drivers seat, but rear seat leather is pretty rough. The convertible top is in good condition with only two small tears that can be easily patched but it will need a new sew in window


    This is your chance to get one of the nicest e30 bodies I've found over the years at a fraction of the cost if I were to finish the car. The car is COMPLETE, and if you wanted to drive it as is it would take you half a day to re-assemble everything, or you could have it painted then re-assemble easily, the hard parts are already done for you.

    I now have over $8,500 into this car including the ESM's. I'm asking $7,500 w/ ESM's or $6,000 on the stock weaves. Will consider trade up or trade down of non-convertible daily driving vehicles.

    For those of you unfamiliar with the value of a true rust free car in the northeast, please don't share your negative comments.

        Thanks! If I had the time I'd be finishing it myself, but then it would over twice as much when I'm done...this way someone with a little knowledge and some ability can finish it up on the cheap and have a really great RUST FREE e30!
