To this:
Engine shot (Dec 2006) Those are the original plug wires and coil.
few random ones.
Yes, those are real Talbot Mirrors, and the inner headlights are original Marchal driving lights that I'd love to somehow install on the M3 as they are stunningly bright, way brighter than any other set of lights I've ever used. The beam pattern is epic.
And how it met its demise:
I miss that car.

The worst part about it is that I have to look at that ditch twice a day on my way to work. The scar is still in the ditch nearly two years after the fact. On top of that, I've had two or three other close calls with the guy who hit me in the same location. How do I know? He still hasn't fixed his truck, there is a bright red smudge on the passenger fender and bumper. I get nervous every time I see the truck. It was a bright sunny morning, I was waiting for traffic to clear so I could make a left turn. The guy had a good quarter mile to stop. His excuse, "I don't know why I didn't stop." Hello, the car is F-ing bright red. How do you miss a bright red car with its turn signal on, stopped in the middle of the lane? :hitler:
Still, after getting punted by the Nissan Frontier, I can say old cars are safe. I walked away with no injuries whatsoever. No tweaked back, no whiplash, nothing. I'm pretty sure I would have suffered more injuries if the car had airbags. I even had original seat belts in the car.
Don't even get me started on how the insurance mess went. :letitout: I'm still pissed about it.

Do any of you guys live up in Santa Rosa? My dad is looking at an E24 on Craigslist up there, but the guy refuses to send us any pictures; there are a couple in the ad, but they are tiny and of terrible quality. If somebody lives up there and would be willing to go check out the car and send me some more pictures I would greatly appreciate it.sigpic

As was driving there and driving to work afterwards I keep hearing this clacking sound coming from my front left wheel well. It like a series of "tuktuktuktuk" sounds when Im either accelerating or just coasting. I have no clue as to what it might be, idk if even in that wheel well. Kinda started to think if it was my tranny, but it shifts fine and smooth, IDK GUISE IDK!
