      My uncle owns a yard in Phoenix and he said he's buying every SUV and Truck clunker he can get his hands on because after he sells the wheels and parts of the interior its pure profit for him. Sucks for e30 guys but good business for small businesses like my uncles.

              That is absolutly retarded. Purposly seizing the engine, I want to see the inside of an engine after this happens.

                I found a NV m50 that did not get the liquid glass treatment. The thing i don't get is why they paint the brake calipers.

                  it basicly looks like it does when someone runs a car with oil starvation. Its not as traumatic as what you'd think.
                  Lots of videos of cars going through this slow death, some are quick.

                    I work at a Toyota dealership and had to seize up an older v8 7 series, was not too happy about it. It ran forever, coolant line finally blew...kept revving it out then it caught fire hahaha
