Re: WTB: Exterior Body Moldings/Trim

Sorry about getting back to you so late. I only have trim from my 88, My 85 euro does not have the accents on the moldings.

Re: 3.5L M30 Cylinder Head

I have one available from my 1988 (still in the car), I was thinking about using on my 85 Euro but will take that to the shop to keep the numbers on the car.
I have a brand new one available also. PM me for details and pics. [email protected]

Re: 1985 Euro Resto Blog

sept 20 A had some time to play today. Since my heat shield came in I decided to install it. I removed the old padding, being over 30yrs the rubber padding is crumbling into pieces and not very effective at dissipating the heat.

i see you are in Ohio. It would help if we know more info about the car you are trying to fit this on. The trim is different depending on the year.

9/18/2016 Well another week has passed by and do a little cleaning on the engine bay. I am tempted to leave it all out and wait until I repaint the car but I will not see any progress there. So, I opted to leave the car in its original color. By doing this I won't have to worry about painting the en...

An amazing car for sure, but that is a LOT of money for what it is! Crazy enough, he is not the only one asking top dollars for cars like that..

This same car was listed on Craigslist in Washington state in August, 2012. The asking price was $65,000, and at that time the miles were 4951. 65k is high but more reasonable for this classic given the mileage. I think this is a pratical joke since all offers are being rejected. My guess is that h...

Rebuilt Engine

I am curious to know what the asking price may be. I am considering rebuilding the engine from my 85 Euro, if the cost is within reason I may consider. I already have a brand new cylinder head with new valves only. If a drop in motor will save me some time and money it may be what the doctor ordered...
