1987 BMW 3-Series 325i with an M3 Body Kit

1987 BMW 3-Series 325i with an M3 Body Kit

so its not an actual m3 it is a 325i with an m3 body kit including fenders bumpers side skirts and spoiler

So far i have spent almost $14,000 in the donor car, parts, restoration, paint, bodywork and labor... 

Sadly right now i don't have the time to put into it to finish it out, so my loss is your gain.

the pros...

i have done the following work on it : 

1.- M3 replica body kit including fenders bumpers and side skirts

2.- hennarot red paint an d installation of the bodywork.

3.- installation of a great running original 325 engine with 60,000 miles  

4.- new radiator installed.

5.- new tires and refinished rims with new center caps.

6.- new suede racing bucket seats black with red stitching (still in boxes not installed.

7.-new shift lever and boot.

8.-new gel racing battery.

so as you can see its the most expensive things i have done...

what it needs... the cons...

Installation of the racing seats, 

the dashboard has cracks,

need new exhaust i was thinking racing headers all the way but could work with just the tip.

suspension upgrade all the way it still has all the original suspension, it is in good working order but deserves better.

needs wheel spacers or if you have the budget it could use new 17 inch staggered wheels.

brake upgrades, it does brake alright but again its not that i had in mind

it definitely needs a sound system it does not have anything not even a radio in the dash and looks tragic.

i am running a no reserve auction cause i need to sell it really fast so please ask questions before bidding, i could send more pictures at your request, 

Ok....

answering too much emails...

the most common:

1.- the car runs great and yes you can drive it home as well as test drive it before the auction ends.

2.- the car does not blow cold a/c and i don't know what it needs but the heat is fine.

3.- i have uploaded pictures with the seats however they are just over the screws, it would need bigger holes or different screws or professional adaptation.

4.- the car will be delivered with the original seats which are in good condition with no big damage along with the brand new racing seats as well.

5.-the car will be delivered with current tx stickers.

6.- i will be delivering with the car a box with lots of extra parts like a new gas pump and lots of interior pieces.

7.- tires are new all around

8.- it needs front turn signal lights and fog lights.

HAPPY BIDDING!!!

I have been the owner since 2005 and this was a Texas car most of its life and undercarriage is clean and with no issues. Car has been garaged most of its life and was recently detailed. I am a BMW enthusiast and part of the E30 M3 SIG and S14 group and people from the groups can attest to this car and know about the modifications that have been performed. The car a lot of work has been done and with tasteful modifications. Car has been maintained by Don Fields since I have owned the car and can attest to how meticulous I was about maintaining the car. Only two known issues with the car are that possible SI board which is no longer needed due to S50 conversion and the Oil Pressure gauge is not connected. Car engine modifications were done by Don Fields at Mr MCar. All service has been completed and is ready for the new owner to enjoy. Please note I have invested more than $ 45,000 in the car without the actual purchase of the car. Paint is not 100% SHOW CAR Concours quality. There are some minor paint issues as is with the age of the car at some point previous owner had resprayed the whole car and I can email more pictures if interested. Also if the reserve price is met I will include a bare S52 block that has about 10k miles on it. The bare engine was a project that was intended to be built by reputable race shop for use with OBD I set up. I have listed the car locally and reserve the right to end the auction at any time. The car is being sold in as is condition and has no warranty. NO TRADES ACCEPTED! Thanks for looking and Happy Bidding!
