    FS: custom e30 truck

    well i think im selling my truck for something more practical, i want more than 2 seats. the car has pretty much nothing original on it, m20 with a rebuilt head done by bryson done about 10,000 miles ago, tranny and rest of drivetrain out of 89 with about 140,000 miles. the chasis has around 140,000 miles also. has heated cardinal sport seats, need upholstry, and the rest of the interior is a mix of cardinal and black. paint is "diamon shwarz" the reason i put it in quotes is because it is blacker and less metallic than normal diamon shwarz. basically what im getting at is that it is completely rebuilt from head to toe, but with stock parts for an "is", although it started as an 86 "e". im thinking of asking somewhere around $9,000- $10,000, although i do know i have to find the right person to buy the car. questions/comments/flames are welcome.

        Bump for a SICK car. The body work on this is insane, and the motor runs smoother than silk on a baby's butt.

                      Sweet!

                      Do you have any more info on the build?? Maybe some pics of the truck being built or more info on how the back wall of the cab was made, what kind of glass you used, what you used for the bed (those stamped panels inside the bed look premade- where did they come from??).

                          that truck fucking rocks, I would buy it in a heartbeat if I had the extra cash.

                          That thing would be sooo much fun.

                            There is a trailer hitch.

                            VW pickup glass was used.

                            The rear is fixed.

                              all non bmw parts, back wall of the cab, ribbed bed bottom, etc. are from a VW rabbit. i posted lots of details i think in those old threads. and there is a hitch already on there, you take the bumper strip off and theres a hole with the hitch to tow my bike (mountain bike, my legs will beat youre engines ass haha)
