An Oldie But A Goodie
Submitted to Show Off
Hi All,
I am excited to join this community of fellow gearheads, and would like to share my pride and joy with you all.
My '89 BMW 325i coupe started life with an M20B25 engine, and has since been transplanted with an M52B28 and ZF-320 transmission. Despite needing a paint job, the body is fortunately rust free and straight. My focus was sorting out the mechanicals and refreshing the interior. With the time and effort I have put into this build, I'm proud to say I can reliably DD it, which is great fun.
