Description:

1981 BMW 3-Series

1981 BMW 320i speed with A/C that is an all original unmolested unaltered true survivor that has been stored in a climate controlled garage from early 2002 up until this summer. When it was parked it had just over 33k original miles and it shows. I will start with the underneath, which is extremely clea, frame, floor boards, trunk, suspension, etc, (see pics for reference).. The body is also very clean (has some paint chips and small dent) but nothing major(it is 37 years old) but very straight and clean. The interior is black and in exceptional condition, ( I would rate it a 9 to 9.5 out of 10).. carpet is perfect, seats are perfect, no rips, no fade, interior panels are beautiful condition, literally feels like your sitting in a new car.Sunroof in manual and in perfect working order. The trunk looks like nits never been used(even the emergency tool kit is in tact) see pics for reference.
Mechanically the brakes work and stop just as they should with no pulls or anything like that, also emergency brake is functional. The suspension is clean, and tigh, rides very nice with no sqeaks, rattles,steering pulls or anything like that. It really is a pleasure to drive.. The transmission shifts very nicely, clutch is nice and firm with no issues.It does need a new hazard switch (apparently its a common problem on these cars) but that's a simple install. I installed a brand new battery, had a full tune up done ( spark plugs cap,rotor,wir, flui, etc. I also took had both gas tanks taken down and sent out to get cleaned and redone, had 2 new fuel pumps installed (internal and external ) along with a new fuel filter.. I also had new braided fuel lines installed along with new fuel injectors and seals all before we started the car. ( that alone was $1650.) with receipt to prove it and all done a few weeks ago and that's not including the tune up and battery work ..All in all I have spent almost $2500 on all the work done..The A/C has been upgraded to R134 and is working. The radio works but sometimes cuts in and out(sounds like a loose connection) but never had it looked at.. The doors and trunk open and close as they should with no sagging, the door still has the BMW stickers from the factory on it..The tires have a lot of tread left but they are old .Also has power mirrors and pop out rear windows(im not sure if that was standard or an option) and also in real nice shape.. All in all I did my best to describe this car as best and honestly as possible but in case anyone has any questions and or would like to come see it in person I can be contacted at (312) 391-5814 anytime. The car is 37 years old so it isn't perfect but a very nice 33k mile clean original bmw. The car is sold as is with no warranty and a $500 nonrefundable deposit is due within 24hours of auction end.. I can and will help with shipping at the buyers expens, I can also get quotes on shipping if needed. Please ask any questions before bidding . Thanks
