Tommyd 4 Report post Posted June 20, 2017 Hi all Have just purchased/ been gifted my first BMW its a 1981 E21 320a automatic, it was my grandparents for years until it put oil into the water and blew a radiator hose, took my grandad 3 years to find a motor he thought was a "reasonable" price and sat in a shed ever since, I'm wanting to do an engine swap of some sort but have little knowledge about BMW's so hopefully I'll find what I need on here 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olaf 3317 Report post Posted June 20, 2017 Hiya Tommy, and welcome to Bimmersport. Great to see another e21 in the ranks, and what a great connection having belonged to your grandparents. Plenty of knowledge on here, and helpful folks. Also some parts available from specialist dismantlers resident here too. Love the Colour, and the twin lamp grille. Looks like a 323i with the grille and wheels. ? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hobbs_e21 22 Report post Posted June 20, 2017 Hey Tommy Good to see another E21 in the ranks. Good to see someone with some tail lights in good shape. Good luck with the potential engine swap sure it will be more than a interesting build which I look forward to see in the future. If you have any basic queries will be more than happy to answer any questions with my limited mechanical knowledge or provide some photos for you. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
