Welcome to the site.

[Aptyp]

hope you bring her back to life.

NOW, if not, post pics of interior and everything else, lets start a part out thread. I'll take LSD. LOL.

But seriously, bring her back, still looks like a beautiful car, and would be a joy to drive.

interior is shot driver seat is broken , carpet roted from the hole in the floor ( while messed up passenger side floor and rusted away ) door panels are already sold and headliner is shoot ) but the good engine is mint id did have a rebuild just before the wreck has a schrick 275 cam and some sort of chip

I love the tree stump jack stand mod.

Make sure when you redo the bodywork, you also complete the bronzit delete mod as well.

DO NOT REBUILD. Find another chassis, rusted floor pans are possibly the worst thing to deal with on a BMW. And i didn't know Schrick made 275 cams, are you sure it's not a 272? Get another body, and plug in the engine.

GTFO.

Saving another E30 from the crusher is the correct answer.

it may me too late for this shell i dunno if i dont find a good shell to swap the parts in ill fix this one but right now it makes no sense to me trying to do anything with this one

If you are doing the work yourself, then I would say go ahead and fix it. All it will take is your time, as most e30 body parts are basically free at junk yards. My e46 was worse than that, and I have less than $1000 into it, and the parts are more expensive. I have put hundreds of labor hours into it.

check out the car Vlad is selling. Shell is good and has a blown engine, would be great for a swap.
