  4. Well it was not really today but the weekend just gone(im slow at making pictures)

    i bought a 87 318 4door from wellington. and drove it back same day(what a drive!!)

    first means of business was to remove the awful mold smell. so out came the carpet to see if it was savable... NOPE mold infested. back seat was the same but that was ditched into a skip bin at the site the car was bought from. we also did a water pump and clutch slave cylinder there too before driving it back. so here is what i found after pulling seats and carpet up. along with a gearshifter wrapped in womans hair and hair clips i found all this
