Dude, don't bother chopping off the "is" front and trying to weld it to your "es". Just build up the "is and turn your "es" into a couch.

(keep your comments to yourself)

- positive and negative feedback is expected. and i understand it will be tough, but in the end i will have a one of a kind e30.

I'll keep my comments to myself, but then again i could give you some positive or negative feedback, I am confused :D

Sell them both and buy a straight car. My

selling both cars to buy another is no option. i will already have another e30 that is fine.

just use all the front panels offa the 325is and repair yer 325e...

how about the is looks like this:

Well, that changes things a little bit.
In that case, do what Josh said. Sell them both and get a clean car. They're not terribly expensive...
A few years ago I was trying to sell a decent '86 delphin 325. Even for $1000 nobody was willing to pay for it. I would have gone down to $800 or so if someone showed up with cash.

My point is, how much do you value your time? After how many weeks of trying to turn two wrecks into one, you will still end up with a crooked ass beater. Why not shell out a few hundred bucks to get a car that doesn't look like it fell off a cliff.

he can't just use those panels to fix his "es". He already had replacement panels, but the frame is so fucked up the panels won't fit on the car. or so I heard...

as i stated earlier i will be purchasing another straight e30 after my 02 SE-R sells.

the reason why i would do this is becuase i would have a beater that i could beat to hell, and not feel guilty about. its not what seems logical i could say, but what i think would be fun in the long run.

and golde30, i want the whole front end so plastic bumpers are easy.

I'm lost??? Are you saying your gonna cut off everything forward of the windshield and re weld it to another car? If so I agree it's a losing battle. You'll have to rig a 5th wheel on one of the sides just to get it to go straight. Which car are you fixing up? Take the parts from that white car and slap them on your red car. Get one car built that drives on the street then start thinking about "race cars." Tell Deagle to kick down, You been helping him strip that white one. Grab the front end parts and Fix you $50 dollar car.

sorry... just thinking to myself....
why don't you pull your head out of your ass and buy a clean shell???????? you are being sooo stupid doing that shit! Do you really think your frame is going to be the same strength?? I have an analogy for you! You are like a bull who is trying to open an iron gate! Keep in mind.. this is just what I think to myself ;)
Either way, go for it....
