1983 320is M20 flared e21

[Steinke]

EDIT: I bought an 2010 STI and need this out of the garage. Someone make an offer..........$$$...... I owe $2400 on my credit car so offers over that will be taken. Well worth the price




Figured this would be a good place to sell the car for someone awesome to get it.

I have owned the car for almost 2 years now I think. I have been very busy the last year and have not really touched the car since last summer. So I think that its time to move on.




Mods:
4 wheels disk brakes
front and rear sway bars
rear strut bar
straight 6 M20 4 speed transmission
Lots of custom body work
2002 Fender Flares
Bride racing seats
Sport Sway bars
16X8 wheels


Car is pretty much striped right now but I have full interior and exterior and extras of some stuff. This car just needs someone with more mechanical knowledge and skill than me to finish it.

keep it man that has huge potential.

[schroedin]

Sell it to Mike :shifty

[TheNeek]

I contemplated purchasing this car last year. Good start for a race car... or a street machine. It's at the point where you'd make that decision.

[BoostedE21]

You should definitely keep it and finish the project. Otherwise a good car track or street like Nic said.

Good luck man

[Steinke]

Thanks guys it looks like I have a tentative sale to Charbel(BF.c) he is trading me an e36 plus cash. So we will see what happens. I love this car its just to much for me.

Sounds like you need to get your priorities straight! cars are more important than moving out.

[bjh102]

[Steinke]

Thank you. wish you had the extra cash too

Killer car, this is ideal for a track monster/rat. GLWS.

[LuckyBoyOne3]

does it run and drive?

[Steinke]

yep and yep.
I have never had it over 45mph though. The speed limit on the way to the body shop is 35mph the whole way. It needs a new ball joint in the front but it drives fine.

Great project and since I dropped the price its pretty much a steal

[Steinke]

not going to part anything sorry.

6 month bump

[josh t-1]

what mechanically is wrong with it?

[Steinke]

what mechanically is wrong with it?

Mechanically? The car runs and drives fine, the engine is strong, clutch is great, and other than the typical E21 emergency button messing up the blinkers the car really has no issues. It needs a new ball joint to stop some vibrations in the steering.
