5 speeds, 4 cylinders, 3 doors, 2 wheel drive, and 1 loose nut behind the wheel
Not sure if I got tired of waiting for the right one to come along, or if I just got sick of driving the POS e34, but I finally bought a TI.
Isn't white or a slicktop, but is a manual and has black interior, so close enough. Allegedly a California car, but had Texas plates on it. High-mileage, has one bad rust spot in the usual location, but the undercarriage looks really clean. Seats are garbage and it needs rear subframe bushings, but otherwise pretty clean (not counting the dog hair...).
*ugh*
Took advantage of the long weekend and got started on the subframe/trailing arm bushing replacement. Everything came apart pretty decently, aside from the e-brake cables. Built a puller for the subframe bushings, which worked pretty well.
Had to modify it a little to pull the new bushings all the way in. Turns out the top and bottom of the subframe are slightly different diameters...
New rubber bushings pulled in easier than I thought they would.
