This BMW Z3 came and went from the Restomods garage. It needed a ton of little things repaired on it like interior trim, etc, but came out pretty nice in the end.

1970 2002
Another great Restomods find is this 1970 2002. Round taillight 2002s are increasingly rare, so we were quite happy to acquire this example. Originally equipped with an automatic, the BMW will receive a 5-speed conversion and undergo a full restoration and some mild performance upgrades. This was also has a sunroof and a minimal amount of rust that will need to be taken care of.
1986 BMW 325es
We found this '86 325es languishing at a used car lot recently. Apparently it was traded in a few years ago and the owner of the lot was going to keep it as a project car. That never happened, so the BMW was sold.
The paint appears to be original under that layer of dust, while the original sport seats are in excellent condition. Being an es, it has the optional sport package, which includes the seats, M-Tech I steering wheel, air dam and LSD.
This E30 will undergo a mild restoration, with a few performance enhancements as well. These old 3 Series are incredibly popular right now, for good reason. They're a blast to drive, with classic styling but enough modernity to make them usable as everyday cars.

Jaguar XJ6
We traded one of our cars for this rather pretty 1985 Jaguar XJ6, which was then sold very quickly to a happy new owner.

'78 Alfa cleaned up and ready to be driven... and sold
The '78 Alfa Romeo Spider cleaned up nicely and sold very quickly to a new owner. A new top was fitted and the car thoroughly detailed from top to bottom.

1978 Alfa Romeo Spider
This totally cool '78 Alfa Romeo Spider is our latest acquisition. What was described as a "running car that needs work" turned out to be a terrific survivor. The Chocolate Brown paint is pure Seventies and the whole car is surprisingly original, with the exception of the wheels and a few other changes.

1985 Porsche 944
Anyone who keeps track of classic car prices knows that prices for classic Porsches have been trending sharply upward for some time now. The early 911 market in particular has seen explosive growth, taking the cars out of reach of enthusiasts on an average budget.
But that doesn't mean there aren't deals out there for other Porsche models. Prices for early 944s for example are still reasonable and you can easily pick up a decent example of one of the best handling cars ever made for less than $5,000. We just acquired this 1985 944 coupe with a 5-speed manual. Though it has some paint issues and needs a windshield- along with a laundry list of small needs- it runs and drives great and should clean up nicely.
