1988 325is Alpineweiss II w/ 94,476 miles
Picked this beauty up on my birthday last weekend, it runs and drives however appears to have been sitting for a bit and most likely hasn't been registered for years. The history is a bit weird and holds a clean out of state title, but hopefully that shouldn't be an issue. I don't want to cut any corners with this one, but am going to try to keep the prices down as much as possible so there will be a lot of DIY repairs/fixes for this one I believe.
Pics from the day I picked it up, towed it home with this "auto transport" from Uhaul. Damn thing was a lot heavier than I thought it was going to be and it hung pretty low. All in all made it back safely with no issues.
I did not want to drive it much, let alone start it because I have no idea when the timing belt was last done but got it to my carport where I will be doing all my wrenching. It's been raining a lot lately so I decided to remove the front/rear seats, steering wheel, and cluster in efforts to bring them indoors and replace some odds/ends. The seats are in pretty good condition there are just a few rips and cracks. They really need a leather restoration so I will be doing that once I find I kit I like, can anyone tell me if this is Cardinal or Taurusrot?
That's all the pictures for now, more to update in the next couple of days.
