Well the BMW made it to the gas station and back tonight. Lots of smoking, had a guy come over and stare at me for awhile, but the engine is running great so far.

Mhm, it finally started settling down. It's had 2 oil changes today, getting another one tomorrow after driving to the glass shop. Blower motor doesn't work, battery is dead, but other than that I can't say we've found many other issues. Previous owner said the driveshaft bearing was bad, but honestly didn't hear a thing when we drove it around. Time will tell.

Good for the most part Dave. Some of their stuff is very weirdly thought out. So what if I there out there that this is my photoshop idea for the thing?

It's have to be fast to be a sleeper. Only thing this has is a driver mod

O2 sensor and driveshaft are now diagnosed. After I get those parts in, the only thing this girl needs is the bodywork, alternator noise, and a good cleaning!

Uhh, dunno about forced air but it does have its own cooling duct. The bearing just makes the worst screeching noise on earth when it's cold.
Go for it, I'll give you 50 bucks.
