1979 635CSI part or resto car for sale
I bought this car last year. I was restoring it, but medical issues have left me unable to complete it. What I have done-
1. replaced rusted floorboard
2. Replaced Carpet
3. Partial install of headliner.
I was ready to install the headliner and windshields when I got my diagnosis. Has the M90 motor and 118,000 miles. It does run. WOuld be great for someone to finish the resto or part it out.
Make me an offer. One picture is how I got it, the rest are it in it's current condition. I do have all the parts.

A good basis to finish the restoration. I hope somebody takes it on!

I remember this car from BaT when it was auctioned on Sept 2021.
Really neat car.

I was diagnosed with a disease that attacks my joints. Doctors have given me some new medication which is working very well despite some unpleasant side effects. Decided to try and finish it. I hate to leave a project half done. So, not for sale right now, but will be when done.
BTW, I bought it on the BAT auction. It was not as described. I had to do a lot of cutting and grinding to get rid of the rust, sunroof and firewall leaking. Sealed firewall and rerouted the drainage tubes for the sunroof, so, not only is all the rust gone, it will not come back. Last car I ever buy off BAT

Sorry this car was not well represented on BaT
Dealing with rust is never fun.
Wishing you the best on your recovery and great health in the future.

What is BAT? There is an interesting '83, dark green, on eBay motors right now I'm told.
