After searching for almost 6 months ive finally found her!
my alpine white late model!
Details: mechanically she's great! just needs a timing belt, valve adjustment, and waterpump in about 9k miles or less.
1989 APWII 325i Auto
I found her on Craigslist for a steal, and i couldnt resist despite the autotragic!
Current Major needs
1: Central locking system needs to be sorted out (not one door unlocks all of them simultaneosly) Gas tank needs to be unlocked from the trunk too
2: Drivers side Ellipsoid, and high beam glass cover are needed
3: Smogged and registered operating(registered as non op currently)
4:Surface rust in common areas needs to be taken care of (doorsills, trunk area, and part of the battery tray, no biggie.)
once i get that all sorted it out its time for the tranny swap and suspension! im gonna try not to get ahead of my self here but ill upload pics as I come along. Just looking for a car to finally learn on and i think i finally found it! with the help of you guy your opinions and other friends who've done work on these,we'll both be pleased with how she turns out!
The bright side: Basically bought the car from the original owner (knew nothing about the value of these cars. and saved it from a crushing end to its life (literally). its got a crack free dash, no rips in the interior minus a little bit of scuffing on the door panels. interior is a little dirty but nothing a little cleaning can fix. cars clean title and body is basically straight minus common fixable fender dents
