Thought I was done with junkers, but you know how it is. The deal was just too tempting to pass up.

The good:
129k
Newish tires
Rotors
Pads
Plugs

The bad:
Roof is toast
Headliner gone
Crusty front leather

The car:

Driver side Dynaudio speaker for a C30 doesn’t have sounds or reading on ohm meter. Can you tell me which infinity 5.25 speaker model you used. Thanks

Are you referring to what I put in my BMW?

Finally got something done today!
Replaced broken taillight and a couple of bulbs. Put a new "shifter blind" in and also bought a new used battery from the junkyard. Left to do is the roofliner and fix an annoying whining noise which I think is the ac clutch bearing.

Time to fix the roofliner.

Whining noise is coming from oil filter housing. Sick vacuum, can hardly take the oil cap off when engine running. Ordered $25 replacement diaphragm from russian site.

Also did a transmission fluid drain n fill. Feels like it was time...

Not super happy with the headliner but it'll do. Little bit of wrinkle here little bit of glue there but overall it looks ok
