hy everybody,i'm Thomas,from Romania.I'm about to bring home my new to me E21,and i wanted to ask you guys a couple of things.
First of all,the owner of the car told me the car is from 1979,but has the single chrome door mirror...i thought that was a feature specific for the early models.
How can i identify the right year when the car was made.It's 320 with 1.8 engine,sunroof,doesn't have electronic ignition,the domelight it's triangle,and has a chrome frame.
Secondly,i have a donor car from 1978,with nice interior,but i noticed that something is different with the front seats,or the seat brackets.What's the deal with that?
Thanks,
Thomas

Hi Tomas, I don't know the answer to your questions sorry but you might be better posting this in the 'General' or 'Technical Help' forum. P.S. 320 should be a 2.0l engine. A 1.8 engine means it's a 316 I think?
Re: new to E21
a 79 is a prefacelift car. facelift was end of 1980 onwards i think.
any pictures dude? car and under bonnet?
