I went to Pick-n-pull today for some parts for my truck. Ofcourse I had to cruise through the euro section to see what I could find. Man am I glad I did!
First two e30s I found were pretty much gone through. I was looking for a couple small interior pieces mainly. Square blanks for the radio console. Plastic door handle surrounds. A window switch hopefully. Nothing on those two though.
Found a e36 318is, so I scowered the M44 for parts for I could use on the M42. Got the plastic BMW spark plug cover and the oil filter adapter bolt I needed because I snapped one earlier this week putting mine back togther.
Then, I found a third e30 with some serious front end damage. It was a 325 so I wasnt to excited at first (M42 Powa) but it still looked like it was in ok shape. I opened the door only to realize I had to have been on of the first few people see this car since it wasnt in a hundred pieces and even better yet, almost everything was in pretty darn good condition.
I got some premium rear speakers.
A set of pop-out windows with good seals.
And a Husco Arm Rest!
I left behind the pretty clean front and rear door cards(minus the handle surrounds), the crack free dash(minus the blank plastic squares), the Mtech steering wheel, and a few other things. I just may have to go back to this car.
In the end, Im alot happier that I found the car than my wife is.
I still havent decided what, if anything, is going on my car. So if you see something your interrsted in, let me know.
Ps. Sorry for huge pics.
