I traded straight out for my broken, 1990 BMW 525I. It's only worth like 700 bucks

The car didn't come with much... And I'll be getting more pics when I dig in after christmas...

But, there is barely any rust. Anywhere...

He wasn't even selling it... This was my first car... I just wanted it back...

And why that face, Wa-chiss?

And I definitely will mn240... I will...

In the second pic it looks like the sheell has no wheel wells. Does it? other than that it looks like a good buy not very hard to put back together that is if the price was right

Wow, you've definately got your hands full there.

Btw, was that blue a factory color? I bet it looked nice at one time. Anyways, good luck with the project.

Man, that's pretty sweet to get your first car ever back, albeit a shell.

You must get all nostalgic and everything. :P

Good luck with the project man.

anyways...

as far as motor future is concerned.. i'm not sure what i want to do yet...

it's either ka-t or sr...

blah... that's a difficult decision... i love torque... and love loud noise.... so the ka is my friend...

but, on the same note... i like low weight, and nice tone...

it's a big decision.. blahjfshdghasuig

haha its like reading the future, im in same situation. sr is "also" drop in and its boost ready. i think ill be choosing that path. na ka would be the cheapest and fastest way to get the car on the road and go from there. depends on its purpose i guess. is it a dd or a weekend warrior?

I mean...congrats on scoring your first car back and all....

but I really get peeved when people make threads and don't complete the build aspect of it...let alone don't even have all the details together that might make the thread interesting

sorry treken... but i don't have tons of time...

i mean, obviously you do... i mean you must watch the fast and the furious at a pretty good constant to have a quote like that in your signature...

get over it... when i'm not busy... i'll post up my build plans...

but, while you're pissed about what i said...

that's an effing sweet rear window valence... love it...
