LS swap candidate! :) that's not in too bad condition either! (alas, the girlfriend would literally run me over with it if I added another car to the driveway.)

we are building a "garagepartment" across the street on a lot that I bought... I think once we have that, as long as everything fits in the garage, she won't care too much on what I spend my coinage on.

Got a response from the seller;

The car has been sitting for a few months... I bought it with a bad rear end, which I've since replaced. I then drove it a little and decided I was going to put a timing chain in it (since the original is a little noisy), put a new muffler on it, and see if I could find another drivers seat for it. The original has a hole in it. I haven't had time to even start on any of those things, and my priorities have now changed so I'm selling many of my project cars. I would consider it a project car. The body is incredibly straight, but the paint isn't so good.

yeah, an incredibly straight bodied 318 e30 is my next project car on the list... hopefully getting an s50/s52 :)

but that won't be for a year probably.

Do a built M42 with big cams and ITBs.

I wish I had the coin to do that to my m42 car. The S52 e30 put down 233whp, it's fun to say the least!

speaking of which, do you have a build log for that thing somewhere?

Yeah, it's on www.r3vlimited.com in the member's ride section.

Do a search for threads started by me (I have the same user name on all the forums I'm on).

That's it. The car is going to be parted out soon.

Going to pay some stuff off, and start looking for another shell in better condition to start with, hopefully I can find another slicktop like my current 318is that I'm using as a DD.

I'm going to build another E30 with either an S54 or an LS1 next year.

Or build a Locost.
