Huh - I do also have my 71 2002 drive shaft - may be easier to have that one shorten and balanced.

If you have the e21 trans, drive shaft and diff from the same 82 320is - can you simply use that e21 drive shaft? Have it shortened as required?

Lots of life and work things going on, though I managed to get a few minutes in the garage with a wire wheel.

Welcome! Probably goes without saying and /or you will find out soon enough. That is “old plastic is brittle”. That red pull on the hazard switch crumbled on me the first time I pulled it on my 71. Even with warnings on the heater box cracking, I cracked mine. Go slow- Use caution. You may have a favorite place to buy parts, but I’d recommend reaching out to Steve at Blunttech. Very helpful. Also, posting in the parts wanted section does typically yield good results in sourcing used parts. This is a decent setup. I have this exact equipment on my 71. On and off ramps are a hoot! Feel free to reach out with questions, congrats on the purchase.

Well - there she goes. Our time together was short, but I did get to daily her for a few months. She gave and she gave - I took and I took. Now time to put her best parts into Derby. On with the show!

I’ve read several threads on this and think I have it figured out.

I’m having this same problem. The car is a sept of 1967 build date. The trunk lid was not original to the car. Is the trunk hinge hardware the same on early cars as it is on later cars? I’m wondering if I have a later year version. I saw a thread that alluded to this.

Friend is looking - preferably in DC Virginia Maryland area
