HISTORY
This is an essentially rust free, late body style e30 that was built primarily for HPDES and was owned by an instructor from the Tarheel BMWCCA until I bought it several years ago. It runs and drives well, tracks straight, and handles well with sticky race tires. I have never tracked it as I was sorting the interior with new seats, lexan windows, Condor lightweight door panels, short shifter, and other small upgrades. I own two other e30s and usually track those while I do work on this. Unfortunately, I have to sell two of my e30s due to big university expenses for both my children.
ISSUES
The track tires are old and I just use these rims/tires to drive around to keep things moving. When I started it recently, (video available) I noticed a gas leak on the feed gas line. It also needs end links for the rear sway bars as there is some play. There is a small dent in the front passenger fender from a brush with the tire wall. The passenger door card needs to be installed and one of the headlights was removed for cold intake. I would refresh the exhaust as it has some rust and I have some parts on hand to do so. Listed parts highlighted in the specs below. For example, I have an aux fan to install. (It doesn’t need it on the track but it does on the street.) If these parts are something you are interested in, we can work out a very fair price on whatever you want. I also have spare rims and even 5 bolt rims if you want to convert it.
