the way that fuel door fits in the side of that body just gives me goose bumps. Super nice project and welcome! any other pics of the car or the inside of that gas door?

Hello Mike,

Looks in pretty good condition really. It will be a nice car when done. Welcome to the forum.

Hi Mike,
Welcome to the forum!
I too have a barn find, '80 320i.
Floors rusted out front and back, rockers both inner and outer rusted almost 100 %. Moved the battery to right rear of trunk to make way for a cold air
inlet behind left headlight. Both fuel line and brake lines, leaking and replaced.
You will have fun restoring yours, I hope.
