This Saturday is the final meet at EASY. If you’re into vintage Porsche there is no better place to be. I’d expect a handful of BMWs as well.

sigh. anyone want to buy a euro 323i baur? i'm realizing that living in SF, doing the resto-mod i want to on this thing is going to be prohibitively expensive- have nowhere to work on the car and kinda worry about it being broken into a lot as well (as in, i caught someone about to bust a window while i was having a cig).
paid $6100 on BaT, would just want $5k out of it for local friend pricing.
tons of potential in this thing if you swap in an eta bottom end and convert to motronic 1.3, which was my plan, but i just bit off more than i can currently chew.
does have a couple electrical gremlins to work out, but i'm not doing that on the street in front of the homeless camps in my neighborhood. one headlight dead, smoked crosshairs on the way from ECS and they're included.
send pm, would much prefer local sale.past:

it wouldn't be that much of a project.
all of the cons:
-one headlight out (replacement/upgrade from sealed beams to euro smoked crosshairs included)
-a couple electrical gremlins like left turn signal stays solid, doesn't flash
-seat back failed in the usual fashion (was going to get corbeaus)
that's about it. it made it fine home from newport beach to san francisco the night i bought it.
oh yeah, and i forgot to mention, it's factory LSD equipped (tested "enthusiastically"). also some not-obnoxious-sounding sport exhaust.
it was a great little runabout this summer, all of the gf's friends loved riding in it with the targa off. and for anyone wondering, it feels as stiff as a coupe does; none of the vert floppiness i remember before frame reinforcement + hardtop.past:

My right rear (sedan) door is jammed shut. It won't open and pulling-up on the little door popper stick thingy won't do anything - it's frozen. Would this be my actuator which has seized?
