Allow myself to re-introduce myself (56K FTL)

[regnu]

So some of you may have seen me lurking around, thinking about getting an E30 or remember that I did get an '87 325is that needs a bunch of help this past summer.

Others might just know me as the jelly bean driving d-bag.

I got the opportunity to pick up a fairly clean '89 325is this weekend. Big thanks goes out to dillsnick and Micah for helping me pick her up this past Saturday.

This is how she looked when we picked her up.







At her new home



Durty girls are hot





A quick cleaning made me happy in the pants.









I like how my driveway adds to the 4x4 look.



Inside






Plans for now, other than another round of cleaning.
1) Timing belt / oil / belts / bushings / breaks etc...
2) OD stopped at 147997 - fix it
3) Sunroof needs fixin
4) Pass window needs fixin
5) IS lip
6) Drop
7) Steering wheel and drive seat need help

Future plans
I am not really sure, go murdered out MTech2/other nice kit or leave it as is just get a lip and a drop.

Thank for looking,
John

Thanks for the comments everyone and to Dr. Evil for the cameo appearance.

Why yes they are, if I am reading the very faded window sticker right they came on the car when it was bought new.

It's statements like this that cause VW check engine lights to come on. :(

I joined r3v before you, but got the E30 after you, so yes I am a yet again.

Keep the pinstripe or not? Man this is going to be a hard decision. I guess it all depends on how well it will flow with the other appearance changes I make down the road. I think if I don't put tint on it and keep the tan interior I'll leave the pinstripe.

It's okay, I was going to say the same thing. :up:

Give that thing a good clay bar/wax, and it will really shine.

Holy crap, OEM RS's! That's seriously badass.

That car was a seriously good find for both Regnu and the seller. Regnu paid way less than I originally did for my e30, and mine was pretty douched up.
There is no doubt in my mind that this car will become one of the sicker e30s in the southeast. Watching him build hiss 337, and knowing his attention to detail I am seriously excited to be a part of this project.
Just no ebay tailights with leds.;) And Mike, This is the guy who wnats the smoked Hellas.
