Project Lessmeister: 91 318iS Restomod w/ MTech2 and modern drivetrain

[2mAn]

I just submitted it to Bring A Trailer to get some more exposure. They'd have to be crazy not to post it

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.

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.

actually, i believe his price is kind of low.

+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.

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

[Bimmer_man]

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

[jdance30]

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

[Schnitzer318is]

^Driving in Texas (at least Houston, San Antonio, and Austin) sucks due to constant construction. Gravel trucks all over the place. While not as prevalent as Jordan's issues... I've done 3 windshields on various cars we've owned over the last 3 or 4 years.

[george graves]

I go through 2-3 windshields a year on my E39

Wait....what?
