What's your car's frankenstein factor...?

[Teaguer]

17 - "Non-vibrating" (hopefully) Driveshaft from some year 325is.
22 - Shift knob from a Katrina flooded e36.

Let me help you out a little :

17 - Driveshaft came from an '87 325is
22 - That Katrina car is actually an E46 you noob . :p

Heres afew that you can also add to your shit list :

23 - Flywheel from a '87 325ic vert that I parted out .
24 - Aluminum shift console from the same '87 325is that your d-shaft came from .
25 - Transmission bitch clip was originally from my '90 325is sig car .


Thats all the quick stuff I can think of on your POS .
Hell it would take me weeks to come up with a similar list on any one of my cars . :rofl:

I wouldn't know where to begin. For the engine swap alone, I bought parts from ~30 different cars.

[MR 325]

My list would be way too long! I've got a COMPLETE drivetrain swap, COMPLETE suspension swap, mismatched interior, etc.

[Raxe]

1988 325 super eta

-Front and rear plastic bumpers from a 320i
-Black sport interior from a 1988 325is
-15" euroweaves from Germany
-Mtech2 wheel from a 1987 325ic

...everything else was purchased new or was refinished/redone/repaired. I've got a discount at the dealer and there isn't much in terms of decent parts yards or recyclers here, plus I wanted most of the stuff to be new if I was going to put so much time into appearance.

Don't forget the forklift turbo.
