i sold ol' houndstooth for an E36 M3, but i kept a bunch of parts along with some others ive been saving and now its time to give my delphin 325e some attention.
the car is starting out as an excellent platform...
i bought it from the original owner who garaged the car each night under a sheet. the car snapped a timing belt on start up and not being a car guy himself he decided to let it go rather than try to fix it.
i then found a motor on CL that was rebuilt 60k ago by a local respected BMW service shop. it came from a his daughter who upon receiving the car put it into a ditch 4 days later. just previous to her getting the car it had a new water pump and timing belt put in so those literally have about 4 days worth of miles on em.
the car -

ill snap pics of the rest when i get a chance -
mt1 steering wheel
