M20 Turbo in a BEIGE parts car

This post is the essence of what Classified Treasures is all about.

I know this looks like a pile of crap (let say it now, its beige), but I think i see the potential in it, just like the seller who originally bought it for his E10 2002.

All that should interest you is the drivetrain. If it all functions together in one piece, you got yourself a great package. Drop it in an E30 or E10 or E28.

I don't agree with the comment of an E34 being a boat of a car. I have seen and ridden in a boosted E34 with M20B27 and it brought more smiles to my face than my old E39 M5.

If you want to kill 40 mins, enjoy some of Eastern Europe finest:
