New window is in. Couldnt find a brake light in good shape. Ill have to hit up 002 in the east bay for that. The rest of my parts should show up noon tomorrow.

Just ordered a bunch of parts from Blunt yesterday.
Master cylinder
Slave cylinder
Braided clutch line
Timing belt/tensioner
Water pump/gasket
Thermostat
Oil filter
Fuel filter
Air filter
Spark plugs
FPR
Rotor/cap
That should get her running smoothly. I am making a trip to the junk yard today to see if I can score some swag like a window and brake light. Maybe some interior bits.Leave a comment:

'84 325e DD resto/mod
This will be slow going as I am currently unemployed. How ever I got this car for free today. My girl friend and I intend to use it as a commuter car so we can give the 135i a brake and my 2002 project sits and waits for me to throw more money at it.
Here is the run down
The bad:
Clutch pedal sticks to the floor
Broken quarter window
Cracked dash (inerior is bad all around)
Paints in bad shape (lots of stains, chips, scratches, surface rust)
After market alarm system (non op, needs to be removed)
Broken drivers side brake light
Warn out suspension
Electric windows do not work
Its an "e" and has diving boards :ohsnap:
The good:
Runs nicely an starts right up!
It was FREE FREE FREE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So the plan is just to get it running with oil change, fuel/oil/air filter, and so on. I also need to fix the clutch pedal. Then replace the window, and brake light (pick n pull). Clean the interior up a bit, new stereo system. Next would be a suspension tune up.
In the long run I'd like to drop it on some coils and get some wheels on it. Thats about it, just keep it a nice clean simple DD car.
