1988 BMW 3-Series Description

1988 325i has 112k original miles, with a working odometer. Will also come with garagistic replacement odo gears. For when or if they go out.

I got this car as a project in June 2017

So I decided to do a manual swap and general refresh. Here are some parts I changed.
New Timing belt

New accessory drive belts
New Water pump

Interior is a bit dirty, but has crackless dash
And rear view mirror with map lights
Nardi wheel and hub adapter, will include original wheel.

I have a set of sport seats that are a bit rough but better than the stock comfort ones it came with which are torn.
A set of basket weaves and bottle caps included.
Like I said it became my main project. All these parts currently do not even have 400 miles on them.
I'm not in a rush to sell, I have another e30 project I would like the funds for.
Its not perfect, there are still some things I would like to change or fix on it, mostly cosmetic and some maintenance things, but like I said I have another project and not enough money or time to go around for all cars.There is a few items that require attention but everything major has been pretty much taken care of.
I have the parts for the AC but they're not installed. Blower motor works perfect.
