45 in 45 posts...

Guess I should add my E30 history. 1st was a free e30 that I got from my ex's uncle. Gave the engine to Deutschman for his M20 2002 project that now resides at CATuned (open house on saturday BTW). 2nd and 3rd went at the same time. Hit a pothole going way too fast, tweaked the frame of my M50 318is. Bought a shell to swap everything over, but ran out of time and money and a spot to finish it, both cars stripped and parted and I went back to school.

I was t-boned in 2010.
Stripped it and put all the good things into the new body. Sold the rest.
I really miss that car.

47.

Parted out then crushed a 318i due to rust for my Dad so +1.

Previously 2 e21s... both were daily drivers of mine - a 320i that I was restoring, but gave up in the end due to rust and parted it out. Then a nice L-Jet 323i manual which I T-Boned someone who did a U-Turn in front of me on a blind corner - ripped the front suspension out trying to avoid them and going over the curb

48 e30s...

2 e21s :)

1 89 325is for rust issues
1 91 325ic for rust and electrical fire.

So 50 total e30s

on my shoestring budget as a university student, and after university as an artist, I always found ways to fix my e30's enough to be better than they were when I bought them. Always got a sence of accomplishment doing this.

I have a softspot for cars I care about

Yup, lets not kill them all before their time. Miss my old car. It's been replaced and I'm glad that could still happen.

^That has to be ban worthy. How can you go through 31 e30s :crazy:

Still have my 2 running, but I'm about to kill a few e36s for their engines.

84 total so far

Parts mang. Buy 'em wrecked, strip 'em, then crush 'em.

I've got one that I'm saving and another that is sitting rusting away, waiting to see what I feel like doing with it. Dad saved his '92 318iC too.

I know of at least three (two 325s and a 318is) a friend (who's not on here) parted and I got parts from, before they went to the crusher, so 87.

I'll talk to the local part out guy and find out how many he's sent to be scrapped. My guess is 10-12...

Still 87 for meow.
