Hey y'all. I have decided to either get rid of my red e30 whole or part it out and use the parts to do a manual swap on my daily driver e30 and some other stuff.
It's a red '86 4 door 325. I bought it with no motor and installed a running M20B25 "i" motor, and replaced the waterpump and timing belt and some other basic stuff. All that still needs to happen to get the car going is installation of the clutch and transmission. The car is manual, not a converted auto or anything. It has a vinyl interior that is in PERFECT condition. I don't know how it's made it this long without getting screwed up, but it has. No rips or tears anwhere, that I recall. The dash is cracked though. The body is a bit rough, a few dents here and there, the bumpers are a little misaligned. The paint is good overall. It's missing the front valence, but they are not hard to find or expensive.
It has a few tricky things done to the motor and a few non-standard parts sourced to make the swap work properly. The radiator needs to be installed and filled, and the motor is not wired to the chassis yet, but I can help with that. I heard the motor run before I swapped it in, it's quite healthy.
Two last things: This car comes with a boatload of OE parts to get it all going, and I have never driven this car, so it may need a lot of stuff that I don't know about. Obviously it's sold with no warranty.
$1k firm. You come pick it up in Midtown. I have the title, but it's not transfered into my name.

(The motor is blocked up because there's no transmission installed)
