Re: 1987 BMW 325iC - white / tan

its hard to tell but also in the e30m stash was a set of euro grill.
we'll need to source another euro set for when the e30m is roadworthy again.

Also what engine is in it? Can't recall if that year came with the M25
I believe it is an M20.
The 04 has transmission issues and will likely be down for a while.
So daily driven for a bit, regular maintenance and small mods.

the car has shudder in what feels like the rear end when you take off from a start.

I am not sure what it is but we are going to rebuild the front first.

Re: 1987 BMW 325iC - white / tan

The car has a moderate shimmy all the time. From what I can tell the passenger side Control Arm Bushing is bad. We are going to replace the entire lower control arm and bushing lollipop on both sides. Also the swap bar end links. All the boots are shot and it's likely time. IMG_5134.JPEG IMG_5135.JP...

Re: 2003 S-10

Insurance is kind of bullshit. They always look for ways to keep the $ for themselves.
