    Houston TX: 1991 318is non-running $1700

    $SOLD$

    Red 318is with black vinyl interior. Bought in May 2016, has been sitting for about 6 months due to accident involving curb collision. The car does not run, the engine block was cracked from the impact, also suspension and chassis took a pretty hard hit. The body is pretty straight, car has original body panels and was repainted in 2012. Original BLACK interior in good condition (uncracked dash, good door panels, carpet), needs seats (includes cheap eBay seats) and headliner. Glass sunroof.

    Before the accident, I did a lot of restoration/maintenance work on this car. Car leaks no water during rain and has very little rust, just the usual little bit in the battery box. New axles, guibo, CSB. Lots of little seals and maintenance - see list for full details.

    Call or text. Title is clean and in my name.
