I've been reading various build threads over the past several years and finally decided to start one for my project.
I grabbed up this car in 2015 from a great friend and it has set in my garage asking for attention for just over two years.
This build will be based upon a 140k mile 1990 325iS. I did not really want the car because the garage was full but he could not find a buyer and shot me a price I could not refuse.
The twist to this story is that the car was rebuilt by Zionsville Autosport in 1996 after being declared a total. The work on the body was done very, very well and has held up OK over the years. Most would never know it had been wrecked but it is starting to show some signs of corrosion (surface rust, etc.) in the repaired areas.
The day I brought it home I began to sort the broken radio and poor front bumper fitment and broken hood release cable.
My plan at this point was to clean it up, fix the little things and drive it for a while. It had the best running M20 I've ever experienced in an E30. Unfortunately other projects got in the way...until now.
