    Sold the E30's and...

    ...Got this.





    Well I still have my 88 325is but I sold my 84 and parted out the 90. This is a 76, it was my brother in law's but he pretty much neglected it and didn't have a lot of interest in it. It needs a major cleaning and full paint detail. It had a respray 3 years ago (not that great of one but decent) but it has been sitting in the open for a while so it has faded quite a bit. It should come back nicely, though. I have to smog it still so the plan is the smog it and then swap in my hot motor from my old car. Already has the 5 speed swap. Good thing about this car is I know everything about it from the bottom up, my father in law built it. I have some goodies that will be going in over the next few weeks, still need to purchase some so there will be some updates when those go in.

                      Thanks guys, I still have my 74 shell sitting in my garage that needs to go away. As soon as that is gone, this will take its place in there. I want to eventually go with early bumpers but for now I have some old diving boards that someone cut down to be thinner that I will be putting on it.

                          Nothing really if you want a solid shell to have full paint done on. It has a few flaws on it and it needs a new nose panel if wanting to go back to stock as I cut out some rust and welded in box tubing. Getting rid of it really cheap if someone wanted to pick it up, otherwise I'm cutting it up and saving the panels for any future repairs.
