I had discovered these coin holders in a random car at PnP. Picked them both up as the textures are different. Added to the box of parts that are waiting to be painted.

More Junkyard Steals
Not much movement on installing any of the parts I've purchased...but I'm still collecting more!
This past Saturday I spent a good 5 hours at the junkyard pulling all the parts below in the pictures.
M30B35 Starter, ECU, AFM, ICV, Power Steering Pump all from an 89 735
2.93 LSD from an 89 325e
Cluster and 99% Mint Cardinal Rot door cards from an 89 325is
And some window switches from an e36
Very productive day...not sure I even want to put the door cards in, but they were too nice to leave there haha
Also snagged this guy for the trunk...its the little things am i right?
I also ordered up some Garagistic m30 motor mount arms, throttle cable bushings, and clutch pedal bushings for my swap during their instagram 20% off sale.
I still need to get a driveshaft, as my car is an auto. So i'm looking for either an ES large giubo manual or a 325 manual driveshaft and matching trans output flange. That is the last MAJOR thing i guess...but still need a bunch of little accessories..and rebuild the engine.
As far as hardware refinishing, the bolt below was the first try I had with my new vibratory tumbler. This bolt looks great..started with the green triangles from HF then a run of crushed walnuts. I've been looking at the caswell copy cad plating setup to finish them off. I think i would prefer to use the black chromate instead of the yellow. Even though the yellow/gold color is more original, I would prefer the black.
