make a photobucket account (its free). upload your images to photobucket. copy and paist the "IMG" code into the "message box" here at R3V. Bobs your uncle!
One thing you have on the young guys like me is maturity. Most guys would start adding performance mods before even doing an oil change. Big props for starting with some tlc for your e30!

Very cool thanks a bunch :)

I thought you had that blue e30? Is this another one?

Yes, this is a second E30. My partner has the blue vert which is the big project . . . my black E30 is not going to be a project but a labor of love. I plan on keeping everything stock . . . lots of tlc. I will restore the interior as needed and personally custom paint some new pin-stripes . . .

Which ones? My inner forearms are 1 corinthians 13 "Faith Hope (right arm) And Love (on left arm). I also have an Enso on my right. I am having "Strength" removed (two sessions of removal in) simply because "Strength" fades . . . I have many many tats: like E30s they become a bit of an obsession :)

You should get busybody tatooed on your forehead. I am guessing you are a pathetic lonely person that has nothing more to do than read dialogue and comment inappropriately for attention.

FYI Billy Graham: take your creeper self into the OFF TOPIC LOUNGE forum and then jump into the subtopic forum "Politics and religion." Figures, North Carolina always has some dumb ass redneck disgracing it :(

Someone needs a chill pill...I said could, not should. You must be reaally smart if you already know I´m a biiiiiggg fan of Billy Graham, and a pathetic lonely redneck from NC...Sooo, congrats on your car choice. Please don´t go like that assuming stuff about your cars or you´ll be riding the bus in no time. Enjoy your stay at R3V!

? Kind of creepy/threatening sounding ? Can you use proper English to explain that a bit more clearly?

Hey Billy: I can assure you that I will not nor want to post in any thread of yours so I will ask you once not to comment or connect with me on here. You are a creepy being. Thanks and I hope you find what you need.

You seem like an angry person BMWgirl11. Being overly defensive 'cause of what happens in "girl" threads on r3v?

[barbara08]

First, I've decided to go with the e30 or e36 3-series but my friends tell me old BMWs are still a BMW and parts are going to be expensive.

They recommend getting a old Civic which parts should be plenty and cheap.

only draw back is these are FWD and I was wondering if I would be missing out a lot if I got the civic.

Whatever car I buy, I am planning to gut it out and I guess work on the suspensions (wheel/brake/shock/spring)

Won't be doing any power mods tho.

Actually not at all, however I do find that people, who label a female as being "angry" when she speaks her mind, tend to be people who have "issues" with females. You won't find that mentality here in the east or the Maritimes - to each his own.

As for people who bring "religion" into public forums (and I am sure you are familiar with Leviticus) have seperate issues of their own. Lighten up BC guy and learn to differentiate between "angry" and "not afraid to tell someone [you are creepy]".

Back to E30s boys :) Oh, I guess I should tell you that I tend to have some male traits and I can't stand prudes or cry babies, no offense, just sayin :)

If you are going with an older E30 parts are not expensive. I go to the junk yard with my guy, craigslist always has parts available. Shop around on here as well cause loads of guys are selling quality used parts. another option if you have the space is to pick up another car for parts.

Anyway you do it - it is all fun :)

Sorry . . . I saw your age and realized I am old enough to be your mom. Young and from BC I understand your "girl" stereotyping and the fact that you actually look up threads by "gender." Keep your stick on the ice kid :)
