Damn, this is a serious find with a lot of goodies. Those hardy & beck bits and those powered recaros are the biz. I love the old school clifford alarm too, such a period time warp. Loving this...
Also, is that an old nakamichi cassette deck?
Btw, I hope this works out for you!

The car may have 18,xxx miles but that drivers side recaro bolster is showing more than 18,xxx miles. Of course they could have been swapped in later in life.
That e21 is packed with the good stuff. Does it have an Alpina finned rear diff cover?
If you ever part with that H&B gear shift knob I need it.

it also looks like it was used as a parts car.

I question that it actually has 18k original miles, there are just too many worn things in the interior. To much for "moving it around the parking lot" wear.
E30> B5> E53> E90 > E30
2.5L> 2.8L> 4.4L> 2.5L > 2.5L
1987> 1998> 2002 > 2007 CPO > 1987
Call me an optimist but I'm believing the 18k miles story. It appears that it has more wear from sitting outside in the elements than it would from road use. Its amazing that all these parts were not picked through over the years.
I was hoping Jeff (JDB) would chime in on this car. I think he was a H&B tech back in the day.

the fact that he held onto it so long and did five k worth of work fifteen years ago I'm thinking his asking price will be 15 large, and quite frankly that's way too much!

Don't wash this car! I'd love to see it at events in it's current condition but mechanics in good working order. Cracked dash, torn seats, faded paint but blowing doors off the rest.
Not a rat ride or new car made to look old but barn find with huge potential. The way they look in my dreams.
