Hello R3v! I'm a daily user on here who's always looking at peoples build threads, showroom, you name it, but never made my own build thread. My photos I took of the car during the build were to big (file size) to upload on here so i finally figured out how to post using flickr's "BBCode" feature. With out further a-do heres my build thread!
SO the story about the car in the picture is during a smog test the smog tester didn't put a fan in front of the car… slowly over heated with out the tester knowing and ended up blowing the head so heres were i found it, sitting for 15 years in my dads friends backyard because his kids, nor him wanted to fix it
all in all, can't go wrong with a free e30 ;)

Then while browsing my local craigslist i found a totaled e30. had lots of goodies, a 86k: transmission, driveshaft, LSD, M20b25, along with rip free interior (sport), crack free dash and a Mtech 1 steering wheel! Best $900 i spent

As you can see that car was completely totaled, even though it had a clear title. My dad had no interest in leaving 2 e30s in his driveway at once so we had to dissemble the totaled one then pick up the other e30 sitting for 15 years after, no worries its not like its going anywhere anyway! Heres a pic i snapped of my dad shaking hands with the guy who totaled the car, Oh story why its totaled is it hydroplaned on the freeway during heavy rain, defentyly was a clean e30 till that happened.
