chop top e30

[bimma360]

There was a guy on here a long time ago that posted a 325es with $40K into it. It was red with an e46 M3 kit on it, and a lot of other stuff, but basically a stock motor with a bunch of bolt on's. Needless to say he got flamed pretty bad. The point to my story is he ended up wrecking his car, and bought my first e30 as a new project. He told me that he was planing on choping the roof and such. Wonder if it ever happened. Didnt really know the guy.

lmao i saw this car about a year ago, i laughed.

btw bret the e30 you sold me is still running flawlessly. already sold it once and bought it back :-P

NOICE!!!!


I thought that was a pretty solid car, glad it's workin' out for you.


FWIW, I still have not been able to get current contact info for the guy who I bought it from.....but it sounds like you got that squared away.

^^bahahahahhaa, pansy ass m5 owner. there are tons of guys like that @ Bfest.

Bwahaahahahah.

Yeah, that's an example of my handiwork- that car is sitting out next to my barn right now. My buddy "Weird" Al Taylor and I built that car one Saturday- we probably spent 4-5 hours on it. We took it to the Korman Autoworks Open house a couple of years ago- that's where those pics were taken. We trailered it there, but dropped it off in a nearby parking lot and actually drove it into Korman's parking lot. It was loud as hell- we just removed the complete cat-back and had the exhaust dumping straight out of the cat. I drove and Al was riding shotgun- wearing a blonde mullet wig with his head sticking straight out of the sunroof! We definitely got some looks that day. When we pulled in, we parked next to a guy in an M5. After we parked and got out of the car, he got in his car and moved it over away from our car..........too funny.

Thnaks Farbin, I never knew that.

Oh, and I secod what golde30 says. I need lower seats so the helmet doesn't rub the headliner, and so I don't slide around in my non-sports at the track...


I think a 1-3" chop would be cool, just to adjust the porportions on the car. If you can't make it wider, make it lower!

[golde30]

has any one ever seen one it sounds like a good idea to me i think that it would look kick ass.

you must be a midget. my head is like less than 2" from the roof in the e30.

[VAPORBLADE]

Dodge Magnum was the first thing I thought of....

[e34john]

there you go

looks awesome, someone should really do that. thats the big thing i dont like about the e30s, they are too tall. those sideskirts kinda suck though.

[delphini]

Well it was just a what if thought ........i see it can be done , now on to other things to think about.

[Desaevious]

From the side it reminds me of a Dodge Charger...

The GTS kit looks sick on it though.

[Farbin Kaiber]

Is it just me, or does the rake of the roofline totally outa wack in relation to the lower windowsills?

[homegrone30]

that would proly look good all finished out and without the golden oldies

[wayfast]

Bret , aka "rigmaster", has attempted this .

Don't know if he ever finished or buttoned it up but there are pics out there of it .
