Another e30 to add to the collection

[SFGadgetGuy]

Hi everyone,

I went on an e30 buying spree last week and picked this up after I picked up the mtech II parts car. Not sure if I will keep it yet or sell it.

Thinking about doing a euro bumper swap, mtech II wheels, a drop and calling it a day.

Needs a headgasket so will be replacing that once I get my parts car out of the way and my other vert done.

86 325es autotragic 209k

Is this interior common in this color or rare haven't seen to many?

[Kwaaahhh]

The int. looks to be tan houndstooth. Rare, hmm not sure.

Just tan cloth pattern that came in early cars... not rare.

I'm seeing tan houndstooth int. Looks like a clean car to start on.

Your driveway would have looked even crazier if you went ahead and bought that other vert. LOL!

Cary, he bought this one in sac and it was delivered to him.

Dang you bought another one... It looks pretty good, for a second I was like why is my car on your driveway with different rims lol. I guess our e30 crew is growing with the majority of the cars at your house haha. Hopefully when I have time i'll be going down there to help you with the e30s.

Well since my 325i motor, 5spd and swap parts, mtech II kit, Borbet A's and this car aren't getting any interested buyers I'm thinking about either trading the mtech II kit for a complete mtech I swap or modifiying the mtech II to fit the early model rear fender.

Don't really need another car but I don't mind having two nicely done e30's in the garage.

I'm going to see when my ebay auctions end if there's no bites I'll have a winter project on my hands.

bmracer19 is going to be helping me fit the kit to the 2dr so it should be good for those who've seen how his car turned out.

the motor and 5spd swap I'll probably do when I get back from vacation.

In the meantime if anyone has any messed up seats that are the same color as ones in the picture let me know I'm looking to get some bolster material to fix the torn one's
I'll probably move this to projects once I get started.

Car is super dirty it was sitting in a tow yard in Sac for over a month with the windows down. Will be cleaning it once I get started on the project
