i wrote this email to someone who is getting out of dohc fords and into an e30. he has something i need. i met him through a for sale thread thought you guys might like it
like i said i have a guy suppossedly coming to my house with $300 for some stuff off my e30 vert.
you are the reason i have no budget for the rear bar.:D
you had an intrest in an e30. well be carefull
a freind of mine bought the biggest nightmare e30 today. this car is an absolute basket case. and payed 1400
with a cracked oil pan. now keep in mind THIS GUY OWNS AN EXAUST SHOP.. so i walk the car show him the normal rust places. and they are rusty. he is still all happy and shit. its got "lowering springs" and the painted bumpers, he says. then i show him where it has been hit and the whole side of the car has been replaced..
so we push it on his lift and remember he still has a big smile on his face. i look up in the engine bay the first thing i notice is a freshly painted block, hey rebuilt engine. this might not be so bad...and then i think ive never seen that much engine block from under one of these... o shit it is missing the power steering pump and the a/c compressor then i go to look at what springs he has lucked apon i find cut stock springs. about 3 coils left keep in mind he paied 1400 dollars for it. it is also missing the mid section body brace the intirior is trashed leather is DONE!!!!
,dash is cracked,body panels are loose and paint is macco. i could go on for hours.
the reason he bought this car is because he got excited it has "lowiring springs" smoked tails,euro lights,is a 5speed a full tool kit and has the plastic bumpers.
the poor guy was almost in tears.
so remember do not get excited over some jazz on an e30. look for an un mollested car one with no mods. if the trip meater says 0000 then the odo dosent work so dont "buy miles" and allways look at each bodyline and see if they are simetrical. the fit and finish of these cars new was amazing new. and they made no noises.
i spent my whole day helping this guy. and then i recieved a mesage about the track lok. so i wrote you this to you in your search. i just let an awesome starter e30 slip out of my hands for $2500.100% origional and 99% rust free so deals are out there but pay attention to the details. or they will bite you in the ass
Hope that helps your search
