    Edit- THIS CAR IS IN RICHMOND!! If you want this car I'd pop on it because I'm buying it next weekend if you don't. I'm going to be too busy trying to get laid at Shamrock the Block this Saturday to go pick it up, but its by far the best local E30 I've seen for sale in these parts.

        Yeah look everywhere for rust. Especially rear arches and inside the trunk where the battery goes, and the other side.

            Thanks for the insight guys. It looks like someone may have beaten me to it though. I'll keep looking for sure.

              Someone beat you to it?
              Id says look at the body at the rear right side of the car thats usually the first place to rust with under the drivers footwell.

              If you hear loud clapping metal to metal sound and it follows revs you may need to change just the tensionner, or you might have to change all the timing components. Usually the tensionner though.

              Viva la m42!

                There's like a half dozen M42s left that don't need a timing component overhaul.
