Description of 1985 BMW 3-Series

Up for sale is an original 1985 BMW 318i in Schwarz Black. I recently purchased this car with intentions of making a track car / weekend toy, but have decided to go in a different direction. It is very clean for its age, and complete. Hard to find original E30's in this condition. Car is completely stock and unmodified. Only thing not OEM is the radio, but the original is in the trunk.
The car was sitting for a few years, but is on its way to becoming a reliable daily driver. It has 4 new tires, new front brake pads/rotors, new clutch slave, and a new battery. Rust is minimal, only affecting a small portion on the passenger side rocker, and the edge of the rear fender. Floors are superb, as well as the cavities behind the rear tires (typical problem areas on these cars).
The car runs and drives, but I have not driven it far as it is not registered nor insured. If you plan to test drive, please bring a dealer plate. I have a clean CT title for the car that was issued in 2012 at~130k miles, however the cluster says 30k, so actual mileage is not known. As the car was sitting, it is recommended to bring a trailer for transport.
Only known issues: AC does not work as compressor is not bolted to its bracket, driver seat has hole in left bolster, could use tuneup / fresh gas.
