Deconstruction of a beauty

[kidrobot]

That's seriously harsh Dave.... I dunno if it helps,
but I'm selling an E30 325 91iC. Perfect as far as I
know except a couple dings, the guy I bought it from
seriously loved it, but he put extra chrome and wire
rims on it 2 (puke) I dunno, I'm selling it for 5k If your
interested, tell me, I would be glad to help you out.

Thanks for the kind words guys. It does make me sad to see it this way, though seeing the smiles on peoples faces who are getting the parts has certainly helped. I am glad that the car can live on through other cars...

SykoBMW, the M Technic kit is sold.

Chris, I will be taking off the pieces shortly. I will take some pctures of how the sides are attached and post them for you.

TJ, the M Technic emblems should be pretty cheap through the dealer. I think I will probably keep this one as a momento...
Here are the part numbers for the emblems:
Front: 51 14 2 231 593
Rear: 51 14 2 251 228

ColdAccord, the wheels are on my new car (89 M3), and are a 5x120 bolt pattern. Since I had converted the cabrio to M3 suspension, the brakes will not work on a non-M e30. I ended up giving the old brakes away to a local friend.

kidrobot, thank you for the offer, though I already have a replacement car (mentioned above). I will likely pick up another cabrio in the future, but no plans for that now.

Thanks!

[kidrobot]

Yeah, no worries, just want to see you back on your feet.
You really did have a beautiful Cabrio....

I dont post much since i read mainly to gain knowledge of e30's but i remember the first time i saw your car Dave.

YOUR CAR= BLISS

Shame to see it go out like that but at least like the others said, it lives on in other e30's.
Its like a person dying and donating the organs out to others in need

[kidrobot]

Dave how much of the car do you have left.
I still have to repair my wifes Conv. haha she
wrapped it around a tree......

[92 mtechnic cabrio]

aw geez there it goes....it was like, a twin brother or something, only mine was crappier......

by the way, I need the passenger rear speaker panel, mine keeps falling off, could be just the clips, but I'll take the whole panel, since I think it only fits in cabrios. Also, do you still have the kidney grilles?

Long story short, I was rear-ended while coming home from an autocross (where my friend and I had the 2 fastest times of the day in my car). Traffic had suddenly stopped in my lane, I stopped as did the car behind me. The car behind him did not, pushing the car behind me into me. I took it to the dealer, where they estimated the damage at around $11K. The insurance company called it a total loss, and cut me a check minus the buy-back price...

The interior is still for sale, btw :)

Bent Frame = More than a $1500 repair.

Also,

Mtech Pieces = Rare and expensive :D

[SykoBMW]

How about the piece of plastic in the brake light on the trunk? Mine is cracked. (Not sure if I can just replace that piece, but it seems possible.

[aaron_silva]

You can just replace the plastic lense. I believe Dave's is already gone.
