Hello everyone,
my name is Ryan and recently just picked up a 1983 320is. I am not new to BMW's but am new to E21's. my background is mostly E46 and a little with E30.
So far its been an awesome car, i know there is a lot of potential as well... i will be starting a build thread fairly soon on it. i have a pile of parts waiting to be put on it already. I will talk more about the my goals with the car, but overall, I'm looking to get it fairly reliable and just go through it and replace a bunch of stuff that has probably never been. I want to keep it fairly stock looking but adding some personal touches.
thanks for looking, here are a couple of pictures of it.

Holy crap, that looks nice. Obviously lowered which helps out the looks quite a bit. Well done!

Yes they do. WOW that one is so nice
thank you! Well.. its lowered but its too low for me and previous owner heated the springs up to lower it. I just bought some H&R's and Bilstein's to remedy that issue.
