    Pics will be coming....uh, today! I've got some at home on the computer, just never uploaded them anywhere. I'll start a new thread with those. I've got an ImageStation account and I know how to post the pics from it elsewhere, so I'll post the link to the album and a few choice shots.

    Oh, and I almost forgot. The car has a rebuilt head from BME with their performance option. I think that means it's ported/polished, pretty sure it's a stock cam, but I dunno since it was done by the 2nd owner. This was back at 241K on the clock. The motor smells like it's burning oil when you take it up past 3500rpm, so I'm thinking maybe the rings need to be done too.

    Thats a sweet e21 Jared, lots of work involved. I like that front airdam, nicely incorporating a shortened battering ram

    thanks for the comments guys!!
    jbob: i saw you list of mods and thought the same thing.
    it is a good list!!
    i would love to get the leda suspension like nick has but i will probably go with the ground control set up. i am not sure what struts though i would like to get something adjustable. what do you have in mind?
    thanks for the link to the manual. those are still the 2.0 engine though. no worries though i am getting my manual here at college this weekend. :-)

    to answer your question...

    the color is graphit metallic

    It's best appreciated up close. From a distance, the color is not so impressive.

    '82 320is, '78 320i

    Just found this forum/my car....

    I just found this forum, I've heard of it before but never tracked it down until today.

    I bought a decent '82 320is last March. Check my website at http://myspot.neteze.com/~kdanielson to see the whole story and some tech stuff.

    Here's the specs:
    Engine:
    1.8L block
    2.0L crank/pistons
    E21 casting head w/mild porting
    272 deg. cam
    New 2.5/2.25" exhaust
    Volvo radiator
    check my website for future plans

    Chassis:
    early vented disk brakes
    stainless braided hoses
    front strut brace
    rear strut brace/battery holder
    14x6 E30 wheels
    205/60 Sumitomo htr 200 tires
    Eibach sport springs
    KYB struts/shocks

    Body:
    Henna red (arrest me red) will be changed in the future
    310,000 mi.
    Front bumper tuck (done right, not just drilled shocks)
    needs new front spoiler, the original was broken in the center
    cheap paint job-looks good from 20'

    Interior:
    UUC short shift w/carbon fiber shift nob
    Pioneer CD player
    A few cracks in the dash pad but I know a guy with 2 perfect pads in his garage for free!! but I've gotta take a bunch of other 320i stuff that I don't need...
    Recaro seats, I don't like them much. Drivers side is pretty beat, passenger side is good. I'll replace them with aftermarket one of these days.

    I have previously owned an '83 320i for 7 years and an e29 M5 for a year so I'm not new to BMWs.

    Hi Ken:

    I got into your website and read up on your background. I must say, yours mirrors that of mine, almost too eerily. I dabbled with hot rods too, they were '69 nova-ss (396ci+TH400+3.73:1, then LT1+4sp+4.11:1), '68 malibu (LT1+4sp+4:56:1), V8 Vega wagon(LT1+P/glide+Monza3:73:1), '69z/28(302+4sp+4:11:1). I also inherited a VW bus-camper style. I used it to squeeze in 17 people in that camper and paid one price to a drive-in movie a few times.

    I spent several years driving an '86 535i. So I can only imagine how much fun you've had w/ your M5.

    WRT machinery, I have two mig hobbyist welders Hobart 175+Lincoln 135; Might be getting a commercial TIG next week. I design & program CNC sheetmetal parts in my former career. Bend allowance/deductions is nothing new to me.

    I just scooped up a Dayton 20" drill press, tool chest, bench grinder, and some work tables at an auction yesterday. I got outbidded on a CNC Bridgeport vertical mill ... but had I won, I wouldn't have known where to put it, and how to feed 230v 3-phase to it. But I still want one, and today or tomorrow, I'm going to look at an empty commercial lot and see if this could hold a bridgeport. Maybe I'll go into business whittling out speed parts. Maybe I'll just end up with another useless tool.

    I took a shot of what I brought home w/ me yesterday. Hope it uploads....

    BMW's

    Thumbs up 1977 Euro 320i six cly.

    Found this one up in Fort Worth, TX. Should make a good little buggy. Has triple down-draft webers on it right now and a close ratio dogleg 5 spd. Might do a newer heart transplant into it eventually...

    Also have 2 e21 BAURs...One is a beater, but a pretty complete 323i , and the other is a pretty tricked out version....3.5l big six stuffed in it....
