Service history listing all the extensive maintence done to it.

Previous owner has receipt of his ownership exceeding $25K
I have spent about $6K since purchasing in fall of 2016

Interior is in excellent condition, exterior has recent paint, no rust, no dents, everything works.

The bad - rear pop out window gaskets were to be replaced. They don't leak, just wanted to have them replaced (in trunk of the car).

Warm up regulator may need slight adjustment ( car starts, runs, drives perfect) - turn key

During shipping odometer gear came loose - simple fix so odometer is off by approx 500 miles. Service docs available to show discrepancy.

Does need a new hood pad underneath. (Just haven't got to it yet)

Car was an original Calloway Turbo from the dealer in 1978 - was used by BMW OF NA as a show car and trailered around to use as a display car.
Original turbo was damaged in 2012 by someone taking the car out and blew the oil pan which is why it was brought back to the original 2.0 engine.

Possibly one of the lowest mileage best condition e21 in the US.

Located in Houston and can assist with Shipping if needed.

I am selling it to make room for another car. Thanks for looking.
