    Scored at the junkyard

    No, I didn't get laid in a junkyard. I got stuff cheap though.

    pics can be found here: http://www.apexeta.com/junkyard.html

    e30 Black leather sport seats (bolster wear)
    e30 Black leather rear armrest seats (mint)
    e30 Black door panels (mint)
    e30 Premium rear speakers (grille paint chipped, speakers mint)
    e30 Tool kit (almost complete)
    e30 Lighted window switches (4)
    e30 M20B27 Crank position sensors (both)
    e30 Fuse box cover
    e30 All black door trim (3 pieces)

    e36 M50 OBD-I intake manifold and engine covers (mint)
    e36 window switches (2)

    And 1 random Breyton Inspiration 17x8.5 wheel, in almost perfect shape :crazy:


    All of this for $150.:pimp:

    They opened a new junkyard in PA so all of the cars were untouched until today!

    The only thing I regret is not pulling both M50 engines in the yard, ecspecially at the price of $90 each. One was even from a 5 series so it had the necessary oil pan for the m/s50 swap. They had high miles and I was in a ford explorer, so practicality chimed in.

      It was the junkyard dog in the back of a 79 ford pickup


      They have 3 locations in southeastern PA. I went to 2 of them today. I got most of the stuff from the one that has been open for years. The new one only had 1 e30, which had nothin good besides plastic bumpers - and some dude was there 10 minutes after they opened, removing them...

      Oddly enough, the one I got most of the parts from had 4 bronzit e30's.
      I kind of got lost walking around because I kept seeing the same car.

          Can't fit much in an e30 anyway... I would have just taken little stuff.

            Which one? I'd go to all three if I were you. None have alot, but combined they have almost every e30 part.

              not taking that m50 from the 5 series with the tranny already removed for $90... big time FTL.

                Nice haul! We have a yard thats like that (they dont know what a lot of BMW parts are worth) but they never get anything besides some e30's and maybe an older 5er every now and again.

                My best score there was two m30 AFMs (one was an 027) for $10 each, and a maplight mirror for $5

                  Ya know there was a few M30's, and I didn't even think to grab the AFM.

                  Next time we're takin your e30 and I'm strappin one m50 to the roof and one is goin in the trunk. It's time for it to live up to it's beater status.

                      I would go to the one in West Hazleton. Right now I'm at school out in The Middle of No Where, PA, and Harry's in Hazleton is about an hour away.

                          Well, thanks for the heads up. I guess I won't waste my time then.
