      just kidding man. It looks absolutely stunning, and I'm sure between the J-stocks and the swap it will stomp all over mine. Congrats and enjoy it.

      ninja edit: I am crying a bit though. And fix your glove box.

      I can't take credit for the wrecking. I bought it wrecked!

      There are many things that need to be fixed. They will be fixed in due time.

        looks good, but needs a new steering wheel for sure.

                  Glad I got to it. Flew down, bought the car, and then sat on the beach the rest of the weekend with my wife and a big smile on my face. I can't wait to enjoy it.

                    Oh sweet! Looks like a pretty good swap, the late model coolant expansion tank is mounted with what appears to be a factory bracket, and the E30 M3 factory rear expansion tank bracket removed together with the S14 AFM bracket.

                      Congrats on the purchase. I know the feeling of driving a car that's vaguely familiar to your 325 but just different. Looks like a car with a lot of potential. It surprises me how many people do these swaps and then sell...i don't get it.

                        Thanks all for the comments. I really can't wait to have this in my hands. Hopefully there will be a few nice weekends before I need to put it away for the winter.

                        Azevedo did the swap.
