    Here it is finally. db 88 is

    this car is my first car, and ive been working on it for the past two years.
    about two weeks ago, i had almost all the issues like the timing belt, some trans seals and the rtabs and the rear subframe bushings were replaced by Turk(brewcity11) and jeff at GutenParts NJ.
    my e30 has lachsilber metalic paint,
    all new poly bushings eveywhere,(cept for the tranny mounts which are new, but oem rubber)
    new timing belt/waterpump and associated parts,
    re upholstered sport seats,
    black carpeting,
    crack free dash,
    15x7 bbs rz (euroweaves),
    8mm spacers(front), 10mm hubcentric (rear) spacers
    new front and rear swaybar links,
    new ball joints,
    new tie rods,
    billie sports,
    fk germany 60/40 springs,
    new clutch,
    pressure plate,
    slave cyl and master,
    diff and trans were flushed two weeks ago when the seals were changed. rust had eaten partes of the floor, so i cut it out, riveted 16 gauge steel in there and sealed it with 3m sealer.

    all it needs is paint as most of it is oxidized and some dings pulled to make it cosmetically perfect.










    plans are paint during the winter.

              I was thinking the same thing. Considering how many he's owned, it's a surprise none of them were an '88

              Although......the two late model's i've seen swapped to euro bumpers sure looked nice :) (Wait for it)

                      Mmm that makes me think of the black M-tech 1 touring the guy in the UK put together with body colored Euro bumpers... Back-dated bumpers look great..
