SOLD


This is not a desperate for cash sale, I simply need to move on and pass this almost finished project to someone who will finish it and enjoy it more.

The highlights:

1975 (no smog for you CA residents)
Original Socal car still carries CA blue plates.

-Original Polaris, 1.5 year old paint job shines great, proper engine out, glass out stripped down to bare bones paint job.

-Full suspension rehab, everything was bought from IE and no money was spared on parts.
Bilstiens Sports with cut IE stage2 springs, + stage 2 sway bars. Over $2000 in parts

-All new weather stripping all around, door seals, front and back windshield, rear popup windows, trunk seal .

-e21 Recaros in mint condition, were in storage since mid eighties, replaced webbing with new kit from ardvark and the seats feel like new.

-M42 Engine swap, done professionally by a local shop here in Socal (Castro's motorsport, the engine was pulled out of a babied 91 318is that had a little over 100K miles,

-All seals and gaskets were replaced,

-new water pump, thermostat, radiator, and SPAL 16" electric fan, new starter, and clutch slave cylinder.

-All new aluminum fuel lines

-New Walbro 255lph inline fuel pump

-2.5'' exhaust piping, with mid resonator and a high flow muffler

-All gauges work, we had to go with VDO electric gauges for the speedo and tach(both fit in stock location)

- New brakes in the rear and new pads upfront.

-IE stainless steel brake lines.

-Under-dash AC With all Brand New components, from condenser, compressor, fan, hoses and aftermarket evaporator unit. Engine temp does not cross 180 degrees in 95 degrees weather thanks to the 16'' fan and the 12'' Condenser fan.

- Brand new AEM Wideband AFR Gauge, AFR reads mid 14's all the time.

- VDO Temp gauge.

- 2.5'' full exhaust system, with mid resonator and rear muffler (not too loud), but exhaust can accommodate a future turbo.

What it needs to be completed:

-Finish Dynamating, carpet, headliner, and the back seat reupholstered.

-Door cards vinyl is in great condition but backings need to be replaced.

- So all together about a $1000 and a couple weekends and you got yourself a resto-moded properly built 02 that will run RELIABLY for many years to come.


-No Money was spared building this 02, I will gladly answer any questions you might have, my number is 818 703 2097

Asking $15,000, Please note that unless you do 99% of the work yourself you will be hard pressed to replicate this setup for my asking price.

I will take as many pictures of every corner of the car if you're far away and need close ups, otherwise it would be wise to come by and inspect for yourself.

No joy rides, no tire kicking.

Test drives will be scheduled around my work schedule M-F 8-5 or on weekends. Please make sure to bring cash if you're going to try to negotiate the asking price. Not looking to trade for another project as my time does not accommodate having a project car right now so no trades.
