    For an "open checkbook" restoration, you think they would have at least cleaned up the wheels?

    and theres a dent in the drivers door trim

    the rear 2002 logo looks wrong to me

    says m20 engine in one paragraph, but then says m21 engine in another

      This guy is insane... I've seen this car in person and it is a complete piece of crap. M20 swap is a hack at best and there is overspray everywhere. EVERYWHERE!

        There's a pretty good thread on the 2002 FAQ about this car: http://www.bmw2002faq.com/component/...opic/t,356048/

        Cliff notes: current owner low balls previous owner, buys it for $3,100 gets super crappy paint job and now wants $texas for the car.

        The overspray everywhere and the electrical tape striping along the sides of the car have to be my favorite parts of the "open checkbook restoration"

                Nigerian scammers have a better grasp of the English language and law than that "lawyer"

                    Link to what the car looked like 11 grand less. What a tool, i hope no one pays that much for it.

                      Sad part is this 76 wasn't really that bad to begin with... the PO chimed in on that 2002faq thread and posted pictures. Would have been a nice car just to drive as-is but this guy cam along and ruined...er.... DESTROYED it.
