  1. Can anyone tell me what these brackets are supposed to hold? I believe one came off of a 1979 320is and the other was from a 1976 2002. I believe they hold something belt driven and attach either to the lower front left or right side of the engine. Thanks!

  3. Quite an adventure. Electrical issues are the worst and frustrating but breaking down, figuring shit out and meeting strangers is part of the journey. Looks like it was still an amazing trip. Bet a multimeter and some crimpers will be in your tool box for the next trip.

    Paint

    Dropped the car off at the bodyshop to get the paint finished. They'll be blending the paint on the doors and roof. Can't wait to have it fixed.
  5. I'm looking for a driver quality passenger side rear bumper end. This is for the short end bumper. Mine was damaged in an accident. It doesn't look too bad from the picture below but the whole end piece is folded like a taco. Thanks, Roberto
  6. Dropped my car off at the body shop this morning. Thanks to the 2002faq community for the advice after my accident and for sending me the lead on the quarter panel. Hope to have that booty back in no time.
  7. No, I just have these 4 center caps.
  8. I tried to fix a bent brake bleeder screw on the rear drum ( it wasn't air tight) and I ended up breaking the screw. What I came to find out is that the rear drum bleeder screw is 6mm x 1 thread. When I searched online and at the local auto parts store, I'm only coming up with 7mm x 1 screws. Believe me when I say I tried the 7mm x 1 bleeder screw on the drums and its too wide of diameter. Does anyone have a lead on where I can find the 6mm x 1 drum brake bleeder screw? It doesn't seem to be a common size at stores.
  9. Selling a rear passenger side marker in great condition. Also comes with additional parts. $50 plus shipping Thanks, Roberto
  10. $50 plus shipping for all 4. These turn signals are a bit roached out but I though I would put them up for sale incase anyone wanted them. Thanks, Roberto
  11. 4 Good condition center caps for $30 plus shipping. Thanks, Roberto
  12. No, this is the first time doing any kind of leather work. No template for the leather so that was kind of a guessing game, since the leather stretched. The stitching looks pretty decent but a more heavy duty sewing machine that makes bigger holes would have helped. The leather feels pretty awesome.
  13. From someone who just dropped the subframe and replaced all bushings and cleaned and painted, it took me roughly 2 weekends. Roughly 32 hours of work. I did not replace bearings or cv axles. You will also add hours on top of 32 if you run into issues like seized bolts or cracked subframe mounts that need welding.
  14. I've been able to tackle some projects I've been wanting to do since the car got hit including wrapping the e21 steering wheel in new leather. I love the look leather steering wheels that have a bit of age to them so thats what I was going for. This turned into quite the task but im happy with the outcome. I found the leather scrap at local upholstery shop, dyed it a dark brown, and hand stitched it. Let me know what you think.
  15. Rear diff from 76 2002 with e21 rear plate - $40 plus shipping 76 2002 shift plate and linkage - $30 plus shipping Center caps - $20 plus shipping e30 rear view mirror with windshield piece - $15 plus shipping
  16. Thanks, This looks perfect. Gonna reach out to the guy.
  17. There is a little buckle on the drivers side which makes me think the rear shifted but, Im going to check to make sure the car tracks straight. I don't believe the frame was bent. No rust

    In need of a shell

    Unfortunately the other side buckled meaning the whole rear shifted and would need to be pulled back towards the passenger side.

    Still working with them. I'm pretty sure they are going to say its a total loss. Gotta figure out what my options are with them.
  20. I got in an accident a week ago in the 02. Got hit at an intersection by a guy that ran the red light. As you can imagine im pretty devastated but trying to be optimistic. It can be fixed but its gonna take a lot of money. I spent the last couple years restoring the car on a budget including a new engine, 5 speed trans, new interior and paint. What I think I want to do is find a shell and swap all the parts from my car to the shell. If you have any leads on a shell with minimal rust, please send the info my way. I'm located in Phoenix but willing to drive to neighboring states.
