I'm starting a collection!!!

[junglestylz]

I went to talk to the owner of the little red 1991 BMW 318is and talked him down to $2500. It is missing a door latch (outside), windshield wipers, a small piece of trim, and 1 fog light is broken. All the trim and other parts I can snag off my 1985 318i. It only has 97,000 kiles on it. heheheheheheheheheh. I NEED MORE!

Seth, are you gonna fix this one up or buying it for parts?

 

[junglestylz]

I am going to take the parts off the 1985 and put them on the 1991. I am also going to swap out the springs, swaybars, control arms, offset conrtol arm bushing, camber plate, shocks, seat, and dash into the 1991. It is a very decent little car. No scratches, dents, or dings in the body work. New paint (the owner owns a body shop) and the profile gasket has already been replaced. I will post pics when I get it all done.

Awesome, sounds like a pretty cool project.

What are you using for transportation while this project moves along toward completion, Seth?

 

[junglestylz]

I have no recreational transportation. That's why I wasn't at the meeting on Tuesday. Have you tried the CD-ROM's out yet¿

 

[xLibelle]

havent gotten mine yet.
havent gotten my gtech
havent gotten something else i ordered either,
the mail doesnt like me right now

 

[rjp325i]

No I have not. Do I need to install them on the hard drive or can I work from CD? Are there instructions on the CDs for use? I'll probably look at them today. I'm now trying to locate a small leak in the radiator if in fact there is one. Dan's shop indicated I have a small one and to watch it but I don't have to rush to repair. If I have to replace I saw Pelican parts has radiator for'89 325iA listed at $214, BMP Design at $210 while BAS has it for $246. I'll have to check out Eurasian too. I want a quality radiator. I'm not in a hurry right now as I will be going on vacation the Sat after Thanksgiving.

There should have been a sheet of paper with the instuctions with the CD's, but I might have forgotten to give it to Chris. At any rate, I can post the instructions on here tomorrow from work.
