Well my message was mainly that it looked odd - so check for significant front end damage - if both fenders were changed then it must have been a significant hit - much better pictures would be a major help. Not saying its not a Euro anyway - but there is more to value/worth than Euro/non-Euro - if it was badly wrecked it may be toast anyway.

Andre - honestly to me the YouTube car markers all look very inferior - clear bolt ons - to my (old) eyes - anyway as I said photos are crap - need better to be sure.

Hmmm. Not too far from me. But I'd hate to buy it just to get the plenum and runners, which is all I'd really want from it.

 

I just spoke to the guy and go his email contact, and asked him to take a few pictures for me and send them to me.

 

The moss green 82 Euro S in the middle 2 YouTube videos is mine and the markers added by Houston federalization back in 1987 are quality parts but not as attractive as nothing in my opinion, buy they had to go on. The front markers ahead of the wheel are Hella and the back side markers are BMW. Gunar

 

There is the G28/10 gearbox but it has already harvested organ from others so let it live.

 

That's mine. It has the stock dual Euro exhaust for 1982 flowing from stock exhaust manifolds. 2.5" tubing(I think),no cats or O2 sensors(came that way from factory), to factory long resonator under the center hump(aft little resonator removed), to dual in dual out Magnaflow mounted tightly just to the front side of the original pumpkin location.

Not meaning to insult your car in any way but I think we can all agree - adding surface mount hardware of any quality level spoils the lines - very unfortunate.

Although many don't like the USA markers anyway - they are at least well implemented flush to the surface. Federalization did so many crazy things - including massively downgrading the headlamps and messing with irrelevant things like marker lights - the front & rear markers are sufficiently visible from the sides already if you ask me... so quite pointless carnage IMO. The DOT was so hung up on its own antiquated rules - any semblance of logic was lost...

He posted some more pics... Looks pretty rough. But for that price, I guess thats to be expected...

That indeed looks a whole lot like a US fenders & added on side turn signals - quite odd
