Well, I finally was able to pick up a new brick. Its a 1989 740 Turbo, I bid on at the local auction. The car was wrecked in the front with some minor damage to the hood and grille, so I figured it had to be at least drivable but I am a little scared. I proxy bid on the car a little high because I really wanted it, but instead of being out bid like I was for the past 4 weeks, I won. I won with my minimum bid of $500 which is making me scared. NOBODY wanted IT! This is really scaring me because unlike my previous bids, I did not have the luxury of going out and inspecting the car. I go to pick it up tomorrow, so I"ll be posting then asking about restoration tips.
Wish me luck!
