Hello,New member here!

Post by TURBINE »

Hi,great site jeroen!
Ive owned a few e36 bmw's and have an e30 but recently bought my first e21 and love it!
1981 320/6 in saphire blue,87k miles,two owners.The car was fully restored including a bare metal respray 5 years ago.Has had the webber carb conversion with k+n filter,and ansa exhaust system.
Id like to fit some 15" period alpina/bbs wheels but it will take a while to find them!
A couple of not so good pics for the moment.....

Hi alpina,i dont have any more of the engine at the moment but will take some in the next week or so.The engine was taken out during the resto,rebuilt with head refurbished and the block repainted.It runs sweet as a nut,surprisingly powerful for a 2l carbed six,and very easy to start and idles and runs perfect on the webbers!
Interior is unmarked,she has 5 speed box and power steering also.
The car was blessed with having only two very caring previous owners,the last one did the resto.
These are the only other pics i have at the moment.Thanks for the welcome!

Hi everyone,been a while since ive posted here.My 320/6 is going strong.Here's a pic i took at the weekend.The car is now re-registered on irish no.plates.
I bought a set of 15'' fondmetal basketweave wheels(black centres with polished lip) a while back.They will be fitted in the near future,just need to buy some tyres.The only other mod i will make to the car is a set of chrome door handles.
