i see lots of flaws, meaning, you can't see LOTS MORE flaws.

shaved door/fender moldings - eww.  front bumper and exhaust held on by bungee cords? bullet holes and the car is on the north side? careful going to look at this one.

Wow I didn't even see that the side moldings were shaved, I would be willing to bet that is 100% bondo...

Really nice car, feel like everything is kind of done to it already though besides a manual trans.

I usually see style 65s go for a lot more than this. Even if two are bad, getting the two for less than 200 with tires would be a steal.

That is an early one that cracks easily.  Steer clear.  The later ones have smaller coolant holes instead of those big ones.  Also those early cars had thermal reactors on the side of the cylinder head that also bake everything to death.  It also probably has the cam to drive the L-Jet distributor not the Motronic style.

Unless you just have to have that period correct action.

I just learned something. Thank you.

That one you linked is what was on that '79 633 that I worked on.  It had headers installed and was de-smogged when brand new and it still cracked somewhere before 59k miles.

pretty interesting euro e36 m3. i wonder if the tuner was influenced by the 190e evo?

I see more e36 GTR in it than 190e evo.  That car certainly is interesting.  I'd love a euro e36 some day!

s14 e36!  i'm not real 'up' on racing and production-based homologation, but how did they get away with running a motor that was never spec'd in that chassis?
