I might check this out myself.. could be a good 5 speed conversion candidate.

You don't want to put your motor in that car, the V8's are COMPLETELY different, everything's in different places in the car.

Now, if only it were a '95, I'd be more interested in it for a transplant from my 540i/6... :devillook

oh no.. I don't mean put my engine in there. I meant find a v8 donor car and convert to manual transmission. ideally 6 speed.

I'm keeping my car...

I'd get it if it were not 3000 miles away.

if everything else is in good working condition, a 5spd swap costs about 1500 bucks...

for less than 3 grand u'd have a nice rare 5spd wagon...

and my e34's twin

Damn all the good deals are on the West Coast.... Quick sale. Hopefully the new owner will fix it rather then part it.
