About 4 months ago i put i sign on this guys 325es saying id buy. Couple days later i saw it on craigslist for $3000. First thing i thought was theres no way im paying that much for that car. So long story short, after 4 months of haggling back and forth i ended up buying it for $1900. Not really what i wanted to pay for it but it was in great shape for sure. Ive done a good search under neath in cracks and crevices and could not find any rust.
My plan is to just do some standard maintenance first such as all bushings, fuel and brake lines, spark plugs and other odds and ends. Then i'm going to look for a coilover set and a nice set of wheels and tires. Not going for anything expensive, just to go lower, im not one to complain about ride quality.
-Things to do
*TR Motorsport C1 (Unless you guys have some recommendations)
*Hankook Ventus RS-3 or Kumho Ecsta AST
*I know a lot of people disapprove of Raceland coilovers but for the money i honestly don't care
*Grip Royal Steering wheel
*Find some nice Ellipsoids
*Condor Bushings
*ETA to i swap
*Radio needs code, so i'm just going to buy an aftermarket one
*Give it a good buff and detail
*Tuck bumpers
*Front bumper license plate delete
*Tint the windows
*Euro grills, kidneys, Smoked lenses, rear euro plate and some other stuff
-Things Done
*Working ODO at 210,000 miles (rounded up)
*Spark Plugs
*All red tails.
*Fix front valance
*Frenched the fog lights
*Starting interior work. Just cleaning it up. Leather care and all that.
*Air filter
*Fuel lines
Now onto the pics.
