It's a good restoration project; it needs two front wings and the usual rear arches but it looks to be very saveable. The bodywork would cost around £3500 but it looks to be worthwhile.

+1. Looks to be quite nice and original, a good place to start from. You could certainly do a lot worse in terms of a project, and with the right work that car has some real potential.

The ABS issue will be the rear drive flanges. They were approx £150 each, they are now NLA :(
The 16" BBS are garden E34 15s and I am certain ten minutes with a screw driver would create havoc and lots of mess :)

The seller knows exactly how grumpy or not his turd is but he is using the old "I am not an expert" line. It will be interesting to see what it 'sells' for and whether it is relisted :)

The rust must be bad as there are no pictures of it!

Either way, its got to be a better ornament than an abused/early E34 :D
