VA - FS - 1992 318is brilliantrot shell and extras
« on: April 17, 2013, 07:51:30 PM »
1992 318is. 233k miles on odometer. Needs work. Great project for someone with more time than me. No engine. I pulled the engine because it had a blown head gasket. I got this car as a project and was going to put another engine in it and use it to drive to work but I dont have a lot of time to mess with it and I've found another car I'd possibly like to get. The black interior is a 4/10. The front leather seats are ripped (rear seat is in good shape), door panels are kinda crappy, headliner sags, lower parts of the dash need some TLC but all the gauges seemed to work. The 5-speed transmission is still in the car, just need an engine to go in it. When I got the car it came with another engine from a junkyard that I know nothing about that might actually even work. I have no idea. Also came with an extra 5 speed trans The exterior is in 7/10 condition with a few dings and missing some trim pieces. 2 tires have lots of tread left and 2 are bald. The paint color is brilliantrot and is in pretty good shape. 25% LSD rear end from the factory and I also have one of those undercarriage braces that you can get off the vert model in the trunk. Comes with a clear title. Asking $600 for the shell with both of the engines, extra trans and some other random stock parts I have laying around.
I was planning on doing a few bolt ons while the engine was out and I picked up a used AASCO 12# aluminum lightweight flywheel to replace the stock 36# dual-mass flywheel on the M42 and I also got a very lightly used (the clutch disk has VERY minimal wear) Spec Stage 1 clutch. I'd like to get $350 for the flywheel and clutch together.

Also have a used Mishimoto dual core aluminum radiator for an E36 in good shape, no leaks, solid. Same as the one for the M3. Would like to get $150 for it.

Last but not least I have a VIS carbon fiber hood for an E36 coupe with a BMW emblem already on it. It has some slight oxidation. Could possibly have a new clear coat put on. Asking $280 for the hood.

Here are a few pics of the car. I've been working til dark lately and will get some more pics up as soon as I can.

I'd prefer to sell it all at once. If you wanted everything I'll sell it all for $1100. Come pick it up this weekend for $1000 so I can get this other car that runs. Thats like buying the shell with parts/engines/extra tranny/etc.., clutch/flywheel and radiator and getting the hood for free. Otherwise my prices are pretty firm. I need to get a gas efficient vehicle to drive to and from work however I honestly dont have to sell this stuff, it would just be convenient to get something that runs sooner. I still have my bike and truck! If it doesn't sell soon I'll just tinker with it. Anyways, feel free to message me with any questions. Thanks.

Looks like the site cropped your link.  I think you wanted something like this:

Wish I was closer - I'd love to have another project.  Tired of looking at my old motorcycles, but by the time I cut them loose your car will be long gone!
