Hey guys, I'm getting to old and lazy for this shit. Time to get something kooshy and new(ish)
I am thinking somewhere in the $8000 range but open to negotiation. Bought the car almost 10 years ago from a forum member. I have been into pretty much every nook and cranny of the car in that time, not saying it's perfect or that I fixed everything, just that I've been there.
Body-exterior:
-schwarz paint in decent shape. It shines nicely but is definitely 30+years old and is a little thin in spots so care must be take while detailing.
- glass is good, new windshield a couple years ago, has a chip in it already
-wheels are bronze ltw5 15" with 225 rubber
-early Euro bumpers
-smoked hella Euro lights, one high has broken lens and busted bulb. Lows have hid
- could use new grills
-rain gutter trim flew away with the birds, other trim is shadowlined
Interior:
-black dyed carpet, it's in rough shape but looks decent
- black vinyl recovered sport seats and matching rear. Zoom zoom zooming
- cracked dash, obv
- houndstooth door panels with 6.5 inch speakers installed.
-late model window lift mechanisms
- blackline steering wheel
- zhp shift knob
-black headliner
-power sunroof conversion
Engine/drivetrain:
-s52b32 from automatic m3
-markert tune
-m50 intake manifold
-m3 transmission with new dual mass flywheel and clutch
-revshift engine and transmission mounts
- rebuilt '87 325e driveshaft
-custom exhaust (sounds good but smells real bad)
-z3 1.9 shift lever
-regreased half shafts and installed new boots
-ie aluminum radiator
-front mounted fan with thermostat
-944 booster
-new oil filter housing gasket when swapped, for peace of mind
-vanos shimmed
Suspension/steering:
-hr sport
-bilstein sport
-e36 m3 steering rack, can't recall exactly which one
-rear end bushings replaced a couple months ago
-e30 m3 offset cabs
If there's more I've forgotten it.
Some known cons:
-exhaust, I don't think it leaks but gd does it smell bad. Car has no ac so windows down and it comes around front. I am thinking a bigger cat would help.
-little rust, the rain gutters had some rust when I bought it and I did my best to get rid of it and encapsulate it. When I did the engine swap there was a hole in the firewall below the cowl drain about the size of a nickel, I applied por 15 generously and left it. The trunk seal lip likewise has some little spots of rust, when I recently replaced the seal I cleaned it up as best as I could and encapsulated it. The worst spot is in the jack well in the trunk. You can see some daylight. Structurally i don't think it's any issue, but full disclosure that's the stuff I know about.
Car has nearly 200k on the odometer. The engine probably has a little less than that, but not a lot less.
Please let me know if you are interested. I will try to get pics up asap. Sorry about any typos, cell phone.
