Hey guys, new to the e30 forums. mostly an e34 person so far, but i saw a deal i couldnt pass by and figured i could use a project :)
as it stands right now
paint is PERFECT. car is dirty because its been sitting under a tarp for a couple months due to it lacking a rear window. paint was redone about 4-5 years ago by bmw and the car is from texas.. so no body rust!
yes, these are e46 fender ducts. no I dont know why.
guy i bought it from said he was stripping interior out to restore the car. he threw out the carpet because it was shitty.... i cant find another carpet! anyone have one for sale? :)
no floorboard rust
trunk full o parts
exhaust off a ford lightning. no mufflers. dont ask.
parts that were in the back seat. none of the seats have holes. minor cracks.. could use some TLC
minor corrosion on the rear floorboard. i imagine this will just wash out.
checkin out my current car
bay shot... its really dirty but the engine started up fine when i replace the battery. 'fine' is defined as loud as fck due to one of the exhaust manifolds not being bolted to the cats. I get a check engine light but im hoping its either due to no pressure on the exhaust or due to there being no sensor on the coolant resivoir
worst part of the car. ill probably take as much of it off with a sander as i can then coat it with anti-rust paint.
Hoping i can find some parts on these boards and get it running and looking good with your guys' help!
