Throwing in the towel

I'm calling it quits on the build I was attempting, there are just too many things I'm discovering as I go that should have been considered when I started, but I failed to do so.

Things I would like to part with to a good home (and reasonable recoupment of investment):

  1. Power Steering rebuilt by Jay, new paint and all (https://www.jaysbmwparts.com/work/power-steering-hydro-gear-box)
  2. "Big Brake Kit" we purchased some large calipers that needed a lot of TLC, after performing the cleanup, we did both a high-temperature primer (oven cured) and anthracite paint (oven cured), and have the rotors to go with them. Fronts: 1995 BMW 540I 4.0L V8, Rears: 1988 BMW 735I 3.5L L6
  3. PowerFlex Purple bushings for all locations -- includes two rolls of PTFE (Teflon) tape for installation to ensure they don't squeak.
