no nasty weather for this thing. Need to do a bit of work on it before I would concider it "mint". typical front suspension parts and a low oil pressure warning when hot at idle. need to do a bit of research here...

Oil pump maybe? I'm going to need to change mine real soon. I found out that is whats making the odd tapping when up to temp. Whole engine is going to be pulled and rebuilt this spring. But if you know anyone that has a V12 their selling cheap, low compression, or not running would be ideal.

Awesome find Jeff, and it looks like a pretty nice day to boot. That e31 shape is beginning to grow on me, I just noticed the subtle fendes 'flares'. I guess you need the right angle. I ain't gonna sugar coat it though, it would look better with some different wheels.

Anyhow, better check your seats, I think your kid stuck his gum under there ;)

don't know if id call them ugly, they just don't fit the car imho they look more like a 3 series wheel, a set of e39 m5 wheels would fill the wells nicely, i gotta snap a pic of the shop car for ya to see how they look

Hilarious, I was just looking at your car in another thread and thought, "God damn! Those are some ugly wheels!" Seems you are well aware of this thankfully. What have you got planned for fair weather wheels?

well it's too late now, they look like chrome in the pictures but their more subtle.

if you had seen some of the vile tasteless hideous **** that i have you'd almost like jeff's wheels, these aren't offensive they just are shiney and are not of a style that fits they lines of a e31
