Hoping to buy E30 soon

[Cabriolet]

Would I still have to rebuild the engine if it only has 70k miles?

not unless you are turbo'ing it. 120k is a good time for a full refresh on an M20.

How would you rebuild the M52 with 70k miles if your turbo'ing it? Just like gaskets and head bolts?

Buy an E30 that runs. So you know how it handles and feels
Acquire swap parts over time
Do swap

I hope to buy one that runs, so like you said, get used to it, etc..

I think I might just swap the M52 in it..
