haha those are huge pictures. oops.

Yeah kinda big, either way nice buy. Clean up the rust spots, wash wax and it will look like new. what are your plans? nice daily driver? autox?

[Guest Hal]

I'm not sure on a good place for parts, but, the guys at dtmpower.net can steer you in the right direction.

 

Drop an S54 in that thing, that would be amazing.

so far my plans are to restore it to pristine condition. Then once i have another car turn it into an auto-x.

[Guest 00Smurf]

what does that green/yellow/red light thing do, the one above the steering wheel?

 

its a countdown to tell you when the car needs to be inspected. It keeps track of the maintenance schedule.

It's a service indicator. When it gets to the red you're due for your next service.

the car looks beat

[Rally Pat]

oooh one of those annoying things.. thought it might be some kind of cool tachometer for peripheral vision.

 

Same, like older VW's.

[John Bruh]

did you buy the car from an owner in gahanna

[Ramsey]

i think it could be a good project.

no i bought it from a gentleman in granview.

Push those diveing board bumpers in (it did wonders for mine). Also for part check Bavarian autosport ( I think ) they where a big help when I had my 325es

[Dr. Apex]

Whoa!! Downsize those pics a little. The body looks good for its age, should make for a good project. Those are good for any kind of racing.

just from pictures wich don't always show all you need a door and a rocker panel the rust on the rear appears to be stains from the screws that hold on the lisence plate lens...

 

let me know if you want it looked at some time we can give you an idea of what your looking at to get it fixed
