After driving a 1993 Ford Ranger for my first car, I finally came across a local guy selling his bronzit e30 for 3K! I went to check out the car and immidietly fell inlove. I bought the car in March of last year and drove it for a couple months when i was at school in LA. This is how it sat:
In October of last year i hit a bridge directly front on and this is the damage:
So i collected my sorrows, and after looking at my reciepts to the work that had been done to the car i decided on fixing it, and do whatever needed to be done to have my bronzit back. I had a couple different mechanic and body shops look at the car and i got the go ahead that the engine is fine, i will just have a lot of parts to replace.
Heres a sort list of what has been done when i bought the car last year:
1989 BMW 325iS
Bronzit Exterior with Beige Interior
215,xxx miles on the motor
Crack free dashboard
I believe I am the third owner
With in the past 5000 miles I have done all of the following work:
Bilstein Sport Shocks and Struts (Spec E30 Valved)
H&R Race Springs
OEM Front Strut Mounts
OEM Rear Shock Mounts
Euro Projectors with 4500k HID
Euro Tail Lights
Shadowlined Trim
Timing Belt
TB Roller/Adjuster Pulley
New Oil Cooler gaskets
Valve Cover Gasket
Oil filter and Oil change (just done)
Spark Plugs (Wires were done about 10k ago)
Distributor Cap
Ignition Rotor
Drive Belts
Water Pump
Thermostat
Radiator
Coolant Hoses
Oxygen Sensor
Crankshaft Sensor
Intake Boots
Air Filter
Intake Manifold Gaskets
Exhaust Gaskets
Front Brembo Performance rotors
Front Jurid Performance pads
4 New Nexen tires
OEM Weighted Shift Knob
JVC Head unit with Ipod hook up (new speakers also)
About 2 months ago i picked up a second bronzit e30 rolling shell and some parts;oil pan, fan, oil cooler, etc. from the same guy i bought my first e30 from for 200$!!!!

Me and my dad wasted no time getting the wrecked parts off my car, and the parts we would need from the second car.
We cut the core support off the second e30 and it is currently in the hands of John at Anacapa Auto Body who will be welding it onto my car for me.
It has already been 6 months since i wrecked my baby, so things are moving pretty slowly. As of now i am just waiting to hear back from the body shop so I can get the core support welded onto my car. After i get the car back with the new core support me and my dad will find and replace all the parts.
I have big plans for the car as soon as i have it running again, stay tuned
