Any manual convertables?

[northmiler89]

I was at a junk yard down the street from my house today for something I had to do for my other car and got into some small talk with the guys and they have TONS of E30 stuff and recently fixed up a Black E30 325 vert.

While I was there I just made a mental note about probally buying it, but I just now realized that if it is a manual, I am going to go buy it tommorow. So before I go waste my time after work.. were manuals avaliable (on the verts) and what are my chances?

Thanks

umm..yes manuals were available on convertibles. I don't have any numbers that would specifically tell you what your chances are but if he says its a manual than I would just go with his word

Yeah I have burned some rubber on e30 cabbies back when they were a new car so they do exist. Honestly the dealer I worked at sold more manual trans cabbies than auto's

I have one, and it came that way from the factory.

I think e30ic dot com might have some numbers. can't remember though.

Pull the rear seat bottom and look at the build sheet if you're not sure your prospect is genuine.

i have one, i dont know if you mean manual fold top or manual trans, but i have both, from factory manual

manual trans I'm thinking

well when I was shopping for mine ... alot of people I ask if its manual and they would say yes... I then say stick shift? they say yes. When I get there it is an auto. Then I say FU and walk away... did it couple times, dont ever take people's word for it, some people are straight up shameless asses. Ask for the last 7 vin and look it up on realoem, or dealer. They dont provide you with the vin dont even bother.
