    Another n00b to the forum:

    Welcome me!

    Hello everyone! I have been a few other forums, but just joined this one. Looks like there is some really great people/information on the forum.

    I have an 89 325is that is in "fair" condition. I picked it up about 3 months ago. The last one I had was an 87 325e that I tricked out! Both are/were black on black.

    I am planning on going all through the 89, and doing many upgrades. Thanks in advance for the welcome!

          The process of bringing her back to life has begun!
          *evil laugh*


          The front end is off the car now (body) IE: Valance (new one on route) Grills (new one on route: German) Smoked BOSCH smilies (maybe soon ) Oil Pan & Gasket (on route from Bavauto).

          crap, I cannot find the missing front end pics - I will take some more.

          EDIT: Does anyone have a pic of their oil cooler? Mine seems to be pointed up slightly - that must be tweaked, right? No way that shold be that way...

                TLC for sure! (total loss of cash!) jk, it is a total investment for me.

                Here is pic of the front end gone. I need to remove the hood next (is has hail damage so I am going with a new OEM rather than pulling/filling all the little mofo dents). The fendars are good, so those will stay.

                As you can she the oil pan leaks --should have a new OEM one this week. I am doing that the same time I am doing the timing belt/h2o pump/tensioner/vbelts.

                Thanks everyone for the comments. She is in rough shape, but I will get her there!

                            Does you oil cooler pic not show the issues you are describing? Looks fine to me.

                              No Hondas! LOL Well no Honda "Cars/trucks"...all bikes...I see you are a fan of the two wheels as well! :) Who would not - I mean you must be when you are a BMW car owner as well! :)

                              Other cars are a Mazda speed6 and a Hummer H2 SUT (I know...no one likes the H2)
