    my e30! very sloooooooow progress.

    whats up guys! i picked this e30 up about 2 months ago.
    my e30 is a 1986 325es i think. has 2xx,xxxk miles lowered on eibach springs. i only drove the car for less then 100 miles because car has its problems. i picked up a 87 325i motor with 150k miles on it. i took the head off awaiting to save up enough cash to get the head cleaned and resurfaced. for now the car just sits.

      while cleaning my trunk out i found out that my e30 used to haul a trailer around, but doesnt have a hitch at the bottom.

        I think that is a battery drip tray.

        Car looks good. I really like how it sits. Something about it catches my eye.

                  it was bronzit at one point. So glad it isnt now. I never noticed it until a co worker said your car has been repainted. I bought the car without popping the hood because it wouldnt open. Little did I know you can use a screwdriver to open it from the front,also found out that the hood handle on the inside was loose so it wouldnt let me open it. Tightened it and the hood handle opens the hood.

                              I Like how the car sits
                              i have a set of eibachs but yet to put them on interesting seeing the stance are your springs charcoal grey
                              and your on a good start all you need to do is rebuilt a seta bottom end or eta doesnt matter
                              find a intake, throttle body,injectors, ecu, wiring harness ,and more but good luck man
                              ironicly enough your first post for this thread was on my birthday
