    850 parts car, maybe restoration

    Due to developing crazy stalker issue, this car is NO LONGER FOR SALE.



    Posting for a friend, located in Gig harbor, WA
    This is an ex 6 speed car that is missing transmission and wheels. It ran before trans was removed. Included is the automatic trans, bunch of other parts... great color combo. Clean title.
    Pretty much parts car 180k. Asking 2.5k cash.
    Can someone pick it up?

    This makes me sad.
    I have this exact car with 1/6th the miles. If I had the space I would scoop this up and save it.

    It’s moved from “no” to “maybe”. I’m thinking about it.

    Would love for this car to come back to life, G420 6 speed transmission can be used with an adapter plate to bring it back to 6 speed status.

    With it not being a rolling chassis, he may be *paying* somebody to pick it up, vs somebody paying him to buy it.

    I’m in agreement with you. I’m not too far away, but the logistics of getting the lifeless car onto tires, then onto my flatbed trailer in what little “free time” I’m going to have in the next couple weeks is a bit daunting. If I can get over there, I’ll probably end up borrowing the wheels and tires off of mine.

    I really hope this other guy can make a complete car out of it. Truth be told, I don’t need another project (I have an 85’ M635 that’s waiting for my attention, and 4 others that need upkeep). I could buy this as a source for parts, but my 850 doesn’t need anything, it’s practically new. All I’d end up doing is slowly pick away at it as parts on mine fail, and every time I did, I’d feel bad about bringing it closer to the scrap heap. I’d like to buy it to save it for a future project, but I just built a 4 bay garage, and it’s already full!
    So, I’m hoping someone else can give it the second chance it deserves.

    I have a set of 4 original wheels that I would sell in hopes a buyer could use them. I do not have the center caps to them. Asking 350 plus shipping for all 4. They are located in Northern CA.

    well thats a awefull lot for sawblades. ihave a pristine 68k miles charcoal 850i with tt int. i would buy this car cuz i love them in red and i have a complete 6 speed swap. i would most likely shop a st of my sawblades out there, or have a salvage yard drop 4 firebird camaro 100 mile donuts just so this would roll on a transport. i am a 50 yr old disabled guy that owns 12 BMws. i have 2 e39 m5s, a e46 smg M3 cab, 3 e38's. and my e31. i love the e31 in red. Brad revelli,i would gove uou something for them but truth be told , the sawblades sell cheap. the only thing they go good on are a S10 pickup with spacers.

    What shenanigans are you talking about?
    I think he asked for $ a long time ago, he doesn't have time to get more and more info and answer more questions, it's a parts car no more no less.

    once again i am interested. just want more pics. your transport guy qont return my calls. i can make the trip. a'though it would be tough on me. it is 1900 miles. i will save this.i have the perfect scenario. i have a v12 getrag 6 speed taken out of a car that was smashed. i would like to know a bit more info, and have some one willing to show up at pickup site.if i hire transport and the trucker cant get inside a gated compound, it doesn't do me any good.

    yes Jerome asked for $$ along time ago. on the 29th of last month. i had 2 missed calls . He never gave me a p'ace to send momey., on top of that i get the feeling you are stripping the pats out for resale(But my end price stays the same). you are selling refurbed DK motors, they are gone on this car. how can i just send the money , if i dont know how much more you are gonna strip off of the car. I am stuck paying for an unknown quantity, you are jerking me off and probably laughing behind the sceenes. You have obiouusly contacted your transport guy told him not to take my calls.

    Many people over the years have tried to make "Bank $$$$ +++" off the e31 community. they always get banned. i have kept my cars thru thick and thin. i dont flip cars. i just build what i like. i may sell after i retire but that is 17 years away.

    Ed, why dont you step away and let me a Jerome handle this like was originally discussed

    Dude, what are you talking about? Stripping off parts?? Are you high?
    This is not my car, and I am located nowhere near it...
    Jerome doesn't want to deal with you anymore for a good reason. He is keeping the car for parts to use on his other 8. Stop the insanity.

    it is all starting to make sense. Jerome kept repeating how good of a deal i was getting(Jerome is listenimg to Dragon850). after reading thru Dragon850 old posts. he stripped the seats pit of this red car. along with who knows what else. i just wanted a pic of the drivers seat from Jerome. i can reupholster them or get others that fit & change the hex coding. but Jerome must have gotten nervous. as if Dragon 850 is some magician(Dragon now talked Jerome into not cpmmunicating with me because some of the BS Dragon told Jerome is not coming to fruition). Jerome is now nervouse i am gonna beat him up on price. I too have rebuilt a M70, i also have Machined the Hardcoat/Anodized lining in the cylinders. quite frankly reapers piss me off. i understand it needs to be done some times. Lock the for sale thread! people PISSIN all over me and tellin me it rainimg....... WTF
