    1985 325e/i/s50 swapped monster, cheap

    Located in College Station Texas, but I will ship if buyer arranges. text me at 919-819-1767 as I hardly ever get on here anymore. My Email is Johng996@gmail.com if you want to Email me as well. Thanks for looking

    My E30/complete parts car is for sale..... get ready for a novel of parts.
    Car doesn't run at the moment. it ran 8 months ago but all the sudden the main dme relay isn't getting power. I don't have any extra time to figure this out short of what little things i have tried. If I jump the relays they power up but something is interupting the main relay from powering up. the car turns over fine but like i said the dme isnt letting the engine spark. So that why I am selling it at a fraction of the cost it would take to build this. I am pretty much selling this as a complete parts car/ swap car,

    Its a 1985 BMW e30 with 165k miles that has been my daily driver and then track (5 events) car for the past 6 years. It started its life as a 1985 stock 325e, The body is a 5 out of 10 black schwartz with about 10 golf ball dents here and there that could be pulled and the only real rust through the body is a silver dollar piece in the left rear battery box and the right rear battery box has been patched(notorious rust spots on most e30's from up north ). THe car has sat for about a year and needs a good wash and buff(which i will do wants it sells). It has a factory single stage paint which is awesome for buffing since you literally take a layer of paint off when you buff. The interior has been removed, except the driver door cards, headliner dash, and center console. I still have all the interior pieces back home and can have them shipped down here if you wish. they include black vinyl rear seats with ski pass through which are in fantastic shape. 12 button obc works as well . It has the late style front valance with a splitter and has the rear style valance spot welded and seam sealed on along with plastic bumpers front and rear, with hartge rep. side skirts.

    Body mods
    Late model conversion with Front and rear valance and front plastic bumpers. the rear bumper is shaved and filled so theres no trim.
    Real Reiger Front lip(cracked but fiberglassed back together. super easy to finish the repair. ) this front lip is not available any more from Reiger and its made out of Abs plastic.
    Custom Abs Splitter (needs to be painted with the lip or wrapped)

    No A/c

        Thanks, Its been a fun car for sure but It needs work now and I literally have zero time anymore to wrench on this car. Even if the buyer buys it for parts, it is the way to go for a solid track package.

            Was college station affected by the recent flooding in Texas? If so was this car in that?

                Nice car and build... too bad it's ended up in such a sad state. Still worth asking price though GLWS.

                  Great deal! I'd be all over this if you were closer.
                  I'd even trade a super clean 1991 318is with fresh paint for it.

                    The flood did affect a lot of cars close to us but College station did not flood, thank god, lol. All the relays are new and the compression is at 180 all the way across on a cold engine that hasn't ran in a long time ;) I have seen and also received a message to check the crank position sensor, does this affect the car priming as well? I know that the dme sends a signal to the CPS to make sure its ok before starting.
