    I don't even know why I'm telling you this.

      Not the chassi for it..........yet. MAYBE the M3, but maybe not.


      It has been done here in BC with Datsun Z cars, but it was factory backed.

        Don dethlefsen and Ray Korman have the ability to do it, but only do it when they have the pig ready to get stabbed. They have 100+ yrs of combined experience in the trade and even they need the sucker with the open check book to order a full restoration.

          Vlad? Is that you!?!?!?

          I applaud your initiative, and entrepreneurial spirit. But I'll bet you my lefty that it won't be a real business.

          You can make a bit of coin while non-M3 prices are in a bubble. Plenty of people pick up a limping e30's with a tired motor, throw some lowering springs on it and some rims, and mark it up to $5-6-7k. Their market is to people that don't know how to lower an e30 and put rim on it, so they pay the price.

          You won't find that market here. I'd guess that 80%-90% of members of this fourm doesn't pay for labor on their car. We're only willing to pay for really special stuff. Like a custom door handle. Or a custom valve cover. Something that takes a special talent to pull off.

          The only guy that tried to do the "I'll refurb and e30, and sell it like it was new plus what every mods you want" was a guy named Vlad. You can search for him.....it didn't end well.

            Good luck finding one, the remaining stock was snatched up in the early 2000's
