[Phatputer 3]

Hmm,

Need:

Swap the started out in the M20

Want:

To pull the whole underside of the coupe apart and replace / upgrade bushes etc

Respray front Valance on coupe

Adjust / refiberglass rear valance on coupe

New Interior / current carpets pulled out and overhalled

325i engine taken out and overhalled in the sedan

Manual gearbox in the sedan tightened up

325 engine swapped into the Coupe and the 318 swapped into the Sedan with all related items

Tints

Needs

To save Jon posting every second post, can we just safely assume that should you need anything, the chances are he will have it.

Give him a call, his number is listed (very) often in this thread.

[bravo 35]

lol, Grant. Good call.

Whiteboard in garage is a must - if you are really cheap, grab an old fridge door from the dump and hang it on the wall. We have a sparky in the family, so old fridges get put to good use - chilly bins for on the deck, chuck a padlock on one and you've got yourself a great, solid cabinet, toolbox, gun locker, etc.

Things to do on the e30? It'd possibly be easier to say that the gearknob is perfect, and the rest needs work? Seriously though, when your car is your hobby it's never finished and there's always things to do. Right now mine is in winter hibernation, but some new paint and a minor oil leak round the tappet cover are the only things I've got planned for spring.

Need:

Hopefully nothing for a while, spent almost 4k on servicing and new tires in the last couple of months

Want:

Repair curbing and repaint 2 wheels (2 already done), tint windows (doing it soon) and a full respray (won't be happening soon, imagine it won't be cheap).

Need - an e30.

So you have lots of things to replace?

Im thinking I might juts buy a E30 shell and start from scratch, would be fun!

[Driftit 2078]

Jono51 this was not a post for you to hijack to sell your parts. Your posts have been deleted. If you want to offer parts put them in the for sale section or send a PM to the person directly.

Yea the current one has been stripped and the shell is buggered so a complete new one would be the way to go I think.

If we could afford all the parts our car needed we'd already be in contact
