Caradise Project Car: You Can Buy Our 1986 BMW 325e and live a life of Joy!
Our Caradise Project Car, AKA Project Zoolander, has succeeded beyond expectations. Kinda like a Mars Rover, I expected its life to be short, brutish and cruel. Live enough for a few blog posts and clicks. Instead it has grown in capacity at every step of the way. Completed its mission at the Autocross in Sonoma Raceway. Got a great interior restoration. A ton of work done.
Now its finally smog legal, running happy. So its for sale now at ebay, but if not sold, I will bring it to Radwood NorCal as The Caradise will be there covering the event. A few more things to do but nothing urgent. Car is running best always above 3K RPM, in any gear, that’s the optimal point. Car has been gone thru and all the basics and more have been attended to, and ready to go.
Here are a few Pics:
- New Spark plugs and Spark plug cables
- New distributor
- New ignition coil
- Replaced Transaxle and Mounts
- New Fuel Pressure sensor and hose
-
Brakes Pads, Rotors (both front and rear)
-
Oil Pan
- Replaced the Mass Airflow Sensor, Hose and filter assembly
- New air filter
- New exhaust
- New Oxygen sensor
- Did a valve cleaner treatment
- Put 16″ good tires (front has a thin 10mm spacer)
The interior is in good, leather seats front and back, still look good. NO STEREO, bring your own. Speakers still there. Power windows work, AC works at highest Fan setting, it is my daily for now. Go bid now!
