    If the radiator were relocated, do you think the twin screw supercharger would fit in there? Or would it potentially fit as is?

      It should fit just fine because the supercharger pulley doesn't pull out further than the serpentine system itself

        Fitting an ESS Twinscrew like I have on my E39 should be a non issue.

              If you get anywhere close to your "buy it now price".....I'm going to predict that a lot of people are going to get into the e30 restoration business.

                +1. And even more "wtb: late model coupe" threads in the classifieds.

                Does it come with a working windshield washer system? I can see this thing hitting $30k but not $40k. Even with all the shiny new parts on it, it's just missing some elements that make it hard to level with a brand new 328i, minty E46 M3, and clean examples of other sports cars tipping the scales at $40k.

                    Oh, just to be clear....I wasn't commenting on the price at all - high or low.

                    This is a different deal than anything I've seen before - so it's going to be worth what someone is willing to pay for it (I hate cliches like that, but I think it applies here)

                    I was just saying that it's going to be tempting not to copy this idea.

                        thats very thoughtful of you! I do however feel that this evening is the last night she'll sleep in my garage.

                        Local sale is pending.
