it's been a while since i've been back into an e30 - i got kind of burnt out a few years ago when i had 4 verts... got into some z4's and now i am happy to say that i'm back :)
so, i stumbled on this deal on craigslist from longisland and it seemed like a "too good to be true" deal but it was such a steal i HAD to go check it out. brought the girlfriend and a dealer plate as well as a pocket full of cash JUST in case it worked.
long story short, it was well worth the $$ so i drove it home. i am putting this together to show EVERYTHING that i change when i get one of these old cars so that it will handle and perform to MY standards... yours may be different! i will outline all of the parts that i used.
it is important to mention that i didn't need to put this on the road again right away - and instead of this car needing work every weekend, i opted to replace everything...
so everyone wants pics - here is William the day i picked him up.
dents in drivers side door and drivers side rear quarter. no rust under the car or in front fenders as typical. overall very happy with it.
