My 1993 325i - Vert life bruh

[littlehandegan]

Picked up my first E30 about a month ago, 1993 325i.

-Alpineweiss II with Indigo Blue interior (crack free dash!) and Indigo top
-Heated seats, premium sound.
-PO had ESM wheel and Bosch Euro Smileys



Previous owner did a good bit of preventative maintenance with documentation (timing belt, water pump)


Planned: New top, new tires, reupholster seats, suspension work and a few cosmetic mods.

When I first got it home I went through it top to bottom:
Oil Change, plugs + wires, distributer cap + rotor, valve adjustment, air filter, cleaned TB + ICV, rear diff fluid, brake fluid and PS fluid. Also ended up putting a new Sachs clutch in it (damn throwout bearing was getting noisy), set of Kumho tires


Pics of it, first day=

Clean start. If you have time to come up to NC, www.atthevintage.com.

Cheers!

Added euro turn signals, darkened corner lights and euro plate filler.


Wish I could make the event this weekend, its going in to finally have its new top installed.

Clean, clean, CLEAN.

Good pick, OP. Welcome to r3v!

Wow that looks super clean.

All I think it really needs is a nice chrome kidney.

Nice car. I picked a 1993 alpinweiss Vert as well this past Sept. Having lots of fun with it. Enjoy

Nice ride!


Took the day to install my rebuilt S.I Board from Bav Restoration.

While I had the day off I went ahead and painted the tails all red to clean up the rear end

Got it from a local R3V member in Charleston.


I do know the white one that was in Columbia for a while
