I'm good! I saw some on ebay, but whenever the seller doesnt take good pictures of the item(s), I always suspect poor condition. Otherwise, I'm making a lot of progress on the car. You should stop by next weekend to check it out. I will definitely have a lot of new stuff done in time for the Presidio meet. Quick list:

-All steering pieces are brand new, except for the used CR steering box, new control arms, new 19/22 sway bars

-new bill HDs, Ireland fixed camber plates, new rubber top bearings, and cut stock springs

-new 15x7.5" ronals and 195vr Kuhmos (cheap!)

-new Big Brakes, including rebuilt Volvo calipers and NEW 83 320i hubs and 77 320 rotors.

-going to replace all flexible vacuum and fuel lines (some look like theyre original, and this is on a 69!)

-brand new set of locks with new keys (2 doors and ignition (thanks paul)

-new 38/38 on newly ported and polished manifold (thanks Mike H. and Hoa)

-new Optima battery next to right shock tower connected with 1/0 welding cable.

- i also stripped off a ton of black paint from the middle trim on the back of the car. THANK GOD the idiot POs didnt do the rest of the trim in black too!

- hopefully a nice 320is 3-spoke wheel

-Rob S.


p.s. I hope to have at least the A/C kit in time for West West, but hopefully also the five speed!!

Hey, Rob. How's it going? Have you seen the round taillights that are on EBay right now? The guy has both an amber-centered one and a red-centered one. $29 each. Haven't checked to see if this is a good deal or not...
