I've found another 76 with less rust and it looks like I'm pulling the trigger on it and putting mine up for sale. Chamonix over blue. Most of the exterior is in primer of different vintages. Front and rear shock towers are solid as are the fender flares and rear quarters. However, front fender bottoms, rockers, spare well, front and rear windo bottom corners, floors, all need attention. It is complete and has a title. Currently wearing bottle caps but plan to sell with steel . Wheels. It rolls. Doesn't run. Tin top. Thinking $1500. Located in Gaithersburg MD
Sell the interior, driveline swap, challenge car!
I know sometimes the forum acts weird between mobile/desktop, but if you've got pics posted in the ad, they're not visible.
If you've haven't got pictures, I bet a few would help :)

If BMW could get 1,400 hp out of an M10 surely half that would be easy. I know, I know, streaching the M10 thing slightly.

I'm so seriously bad with pics, except sharing from a FB classified. I'm putting it here 1st. And the price is negotiable. Just too many projects. Oh and I can ship cheap.
In reply to Stampie :
If you only want it to last, say, an hour, you could probably stuff a massive turbo on it. But then you're probably better off starting with a e30 set up and stuffing it in there. That e10 may be the most rugged BMW car engine ever. Although, that isn't really a high bar, I'll admit
FWIW, most of the metal work is either flat or slight curve, ie, no need for stamped panels. Just a lot of gas and wire.....and weld through primer.
Oh, and the bumpers must be worth something to someone (money towards challenge)
Forgot to mention, this is an a/c car. I'll take money off to take the components as the other car isn't a/c
Quick homework shows the m10 can handle 12.5:1 on race gas but I had a friend who ran 14:1. Honestly, I believe it lasted about 3 hours of race time. Lol. Thst with some Chinese weber side drafts and a schrick cam and headers?....
I sent you a PM via the forum

Don't know why, but they rarely male it to my email. My cell is 410 three three zero 1437
I had sent you one as well offering to host pics if you want to text them to me.
I aquire another set of bottle caps, so the new owner could have a set if desired. Should be getting pics up tomorrow, through another member
Thanks Chandler. I tried to get all of the bad spots. The drivers floor is completely shot. The passenger could be saved. Held my weight.
The bottom of the driver's fender is the only filler I found
Did I scare everyone off? I'll be listing this on some 02 sites soon, so if interested, please let me know
Bumped. If you let me take the a/c components (and a few minor interior pieces) and you only use the original crappy steel wheels and a set of my worst bottle caps, I'll do $1000
I should be picking up.a reasonably clean partial rear shell this week
Also, open to trade for an open car trailer as my 2 enclosed ones are usually occupied, SMDH
Also willing to consider interesting trades. My other 76 came with CA emissions bits that we could work out a deal on. Also, maybe a trade involving my 72 Ossa. Or another old bike or 2.
