SOLD: '91 318is w/ M42 Stroker etc..
« on: March 02, 2016, 11:30:08 AM »
Hey everyone,

Putting this out there to see if anyone has an interest. As some of you know the stroker engine build is quite extensive and was meant to be a reliable street motor,  not a race motor. It only has 2K mile on the build. Lots of cool mods. I'm looking for a serious buyer. The car is located in New Jersey at the shore. Price is negotiable and will be kept private if need be.

You can PM me with your email or phone number to discuss the car.

Cheers,
~Ralph

It is so.... :-\

I will always be able to build another car just like it if I want to. It's time to let someone enjoy driving it as I did designing it.

Cheers,
~Ralph

What are your thoughts on me separating the motor from the car? Might there be more interest?

Cheers,

Ok....I have decided that the car can go either way. Just the car or the whole car with the engine.

Any takers?

Cheers,
~Ralph
