Laura's '92 vert/new to the forum
I am now the proud owner of a calypso 1992 325i convertible :) I've always loved e30s, and my dad mentioned wanting to sell his, so I hoped on it. The poor car has just been sitting in his driveway for years not being driven because he rides his motorcycle everywhere. 138k miles. Automatic (considering a tranny swap, I really want a 5spd...). I've had it a little over a month now. When I got it the top was in terrible shape- the back window was duct taped in and had been like that for years, and there was a pretty bad oil leak (my dad said it was the oil pan gasket, but I took a look at it and it was just the valve cover gasket... a much easier fix! :) ).
Pics of when I got her:
mine and my friends' (mine with duct taped window)
Got a top off of a parts car:
all the trim was super faded so I painted it, along with the whole grill cause the chrome on the kindeys was chipping off. also painted the window trim black, it was looking a little rough too.
mustache is off, I got tired of it.
lowering it soon.
