320/6
Owner: Tricord
In registry since: Tuesday, Aug 10th 2:21pm.
Year: 1980
Location: Belgium
Description
My first car ever. This is what I learned to drive with in 2001, and I still drive it.
The engine broke down during the summer of 2002 though (cracked head) and that's when I started to work on cars. I found a new head, bought some parts and fixed her up.
Meanwhile I have addressed some rust on the body, and rebuilt the carburettor. This car is mechanically 100% perfect, except for the automatic choke which seems not to be doing it's job during cold starts.
Refer to the projects page under the E21 menu for more details.
Modifications and tuning
The car is bone stock.
Perhaps someway along the road I will throw in beefy brakes, a track suspension and that ETA block I have laying around in order to have something to play with on the track, but that's very low-priority at the moment.
History
This car is still first owner. My mom bought it in 1980 and she is still listed owner (for insurance reasons), though I am driving it :) |
