      Some pix...

      Yesturday when I first picked it up...




      Got bored today so I sprayed the tails...


      Funny sticker on the front fenders...


      I have no idea what this is its not connected to anything...



      Painted grizzlez..



      Interior shots




      Engine bay is a mess...



      Well today I did a few things to it

      Oil change,replaced leaking oil drain plug
      Bosch copper plug and wire change
      Replaced PS and also ALT/Fan belt
      Flushed cooling system
      Sprayed tailights
      Cleaned seats,(TUFFSTUFF)
      Painted grills
      Removed Mass air flow for some inspection, sometimes when I get on the Gas it feels like a clogged air box and almost chokes on its self but never enough to Shut off the car.
      also went to start it and the starter makes a loud noise So I know thats also coming out soon. For those who know the car also needs a tranny (no reverse) (AUTO) but thats already being taken care of.

      For now this is it.... till next time....

        The Little Tikes basketball standard by the house with the portable basketball standard leaning against the fence would make for an interesting full-court game.

        Oh, and the body looks solid for that price!

            Actually the guy was more than willing to give the money back but I just decided to keep it and just make it my project. Even though the car is going to be for the wife, reason why is staying (auto). Ill be saving for a more decent E30 dd and also (tax time is coming) so I cant wait for that.

                    Thanx I wouldnt of known either. The only thing is that my buddie tried to sell me a plate filler on the cheap and when I went to fit it, it wouldnt line up and or bulged out on that spot. My homie made fun of me and said to spray paint that section flat black to make it look like I had a plate filler on (asshole) but still kinda made me curious to how that would look haha. Anyway just want to tell (edwin) Doc is coming save me a t-shirt or im sure Azael will be picking one up for me lol hopefully.

                          Will look into it later this week, I guess even though I know the filler plate will cover it just the thought of a hole still being there bothers me even if I were to plug it with something :???:.
