    Yeah I'll join the club of '02 owners who can't do magic by making 2 pieces of metal flawlessly become 1.

    i think you could of used the 245 and kept the mechincal speedo, (the 245 was a 5speed right?)

    anyways,
    the table is my favorite, and the mahogany and metal color combo is very classy. i have no idea what your charging for these but do yourself a favor and make sure its a lot! do not sell yourself short your doing some phenomenal work there. a nice website with some of your nice photog skills and a super classy business card, ala american psycho, and i say your in there like swimwear son!
    The getrag 245 has a different bell housing, I believe there is a getrag G245 which works though, and I think that is from the 318 e30's. I could be wrong, but I think that's what I read somewhere.

    And thank you for the input, I'm still trying to figure out how I should price these out. I don't really wanna look like that guy who prices his stuff all high even though he's just getting started, but at the same time I want to make it worth my while. We'll see!

    That's the plan

    Thank you, I definitely have some interesting plans for the trunk setup, so stay tuned.

    I've thought about making chairs to match, we'll see what potential buyers say. If they're willing to pay a lot more, I would be willing to make some chairs for it. It's very time consuming work.

    You're a good son.
