OK, over the weekend we changed out the steering column (my fault), all the steering hoses, the reservoir, and the pump (thanks Austin!). So far nothing dumping on the ground, it drives nice and straight, no grinding pump noises! It's going on a 1000 mile trip this weekend, so a good test of how we did.
The swap parts target car at a pick & pull 3 hours away was crushed before they even cataloged it on their computer. The wouldn't even tell us they had it, now it's gone.
But!...we met a local guy who has many old BMWs, many E30s, his own shop, builds race cars and hot rods, and has a parts stash. So we got a nice set of pedals, clutch switch, and brake switch. I think I've located a decent single-mass early flywheel. Our NAPA resurfaces flywheels for $27 - win.
So I think that's everything, we just need all the replaceable pieces.
