I'm a BMW enthusiast too, that car is an E30 model and they are VERY common and not worth an awful lot fully functional with a title, especially with an automatic trans. Yours can't be titled so it's just a parts car. Maybe worth $1000 to someone that needs it.
A Porsche 901 trans can go for $200-$1000 depending on it's condition and your luck. A shifter and shift rod is worth about $50 and neither is necessary for the conversion. I would not pay any more than $300 for N/A 944 brakes including the rear trailing arms. I think 914 gage sets in good condition go for about $75-$100 or so. A set of 944 axles/CVs would be good to pick up. You might consider some Porsche seats, look good, very comfortable, and not too hard to adapt into a bug. Others may think differently on parts prices... ken |

I made a mistake the car is a manual. I wasn't payibg real good attention when I looked.
What do you mean neither the shifter or the rod is needed for the conversion? Just curious. Thanks for the reply.. Drew23

You can use a VW shifter with the Porsche trans and the shift rod is just some tubing with coupling ends-easy enough to fabricate.
Even with a 5 speed, it's un titleable so it has little value as a car. If the body panels/interior/running gear are in very good condition it could be parted out and maybe get $2000 total but that's a lot of work and aggrivation. If it's in just normal condition it's worth much less. ken |
