Hey guys/gals. Im in new member here. Ive been a long time member at www.bimmerforums.com , and www.E46fanatics.com I currently have a track/DD 98M3 thats being rebuilt and a convrt 04M3.
Today I came across what seem to me, to be gold mine. The car in question is a 88M3. I thought I would consult the experts on E30s here to get peoples opinion. The car is alpine white, everything is original. Its currently owned by a lady who is the 2nd owner of the car. She works for a euro car service shop where the car currently sits. Since she bought it from a previous customer, she has service document history dating back to 1996. It just recently had the timing chain done and a valve job done. The interior needs to be reupholstered, the dash has cracks on top and underneath where the peddles are. I only saw one not so noticable ding on top of the car like something was dropped on it. All body panels seem to be straight, car has original paint and BBS wheels. Headliner needs to be replaced. Rear window is shot, no literally its shot haha, someone shot it out with a bb gun. So it needs replaced. It wouldnt turnover due to what she said was a bad battery. So if the battery is the only thing actually keeping it from turning over and considering a compression test comes back ok and underneath looks ok. I think this could be a great deal.
What do you guys think. I took pics of the engine bay, interior, some ext pics and one wheel. Yeah it needs some work, but seems like a great find.
opinions?
