Interior is in, minus my new dash, euro clock, gauge cluster, and stereo. The cluster will *have* to go in soon.

Unfortunately, no. The rear is pretty half assed at the moment- they're my sedan seats that I had dyed black a while ago. Doesn't look bad, matches the door cards well but I plan on reupholstering the rear coupe seats with the same material as the sport seats.Originally posted by 2mAn View Post
If you were wondering, I had bought a kit from Stitchedwheels here on r3v and used it to reupholster some really tattered M3 seats I found on Craigslist. A lot of work, but it was for sure worth it.'86 Burgundrot 325 2.8 stroker.

Oil/ trans fluid filled, no leaks so far. UUC Short throw shifter, all new bushings, DSSR, shift carrier etc installed. Turns out I have the wrong wiring harness, will get new one soon, but in the meantime I still have a lot of stuff to put in.

sexi. what are the plans for exhaust? You should throw some headers on there. ;D

This thing will 100% get long tube headers. Probably very shortly after I smog it. My 323i had a custom exhaust from the header collector back, so I'll probably bolt that on for now and fit the headers later.Originally posted by sampayne View Post'86 Burgundrot 325 2.8 stroker.

Melber Mahle 15x7 et12 (I believe E21 fitment?) wrapped in 205/50s. Mahle's were special order wheels that Mercedes and BMWs could come with, made by BBS or Melber, so.. they're not reps. More like pre-weavesOriginally posted by wworm View Post
I should be getting the wiring harness in two days, need to put in the radiator, power steering, the gauge cluster, the exhaust, and wire it all up. I think turning it over this weekend is a definite possibility.Originally posted by 2mAn View Post'86 Burgundrot 325 2.8 stroker.
