    Finally done... Good deal or not? Wrecked e30 s50

    I seen this for sale; it was two 89' 325i's, both original zinnoberrot red. one titleless shel, and the freshly wrecked, tho clean titled green one. Had all paperwork for professionally rebuilt 95 m3 engine , fully adjustable d2 suspension, stainless exhaust, clean crack free interior, meticulous wiring diagrams for build, and in general quality looking work. And besides the damage// both cars were in good shape, rust free. I paid 4 grand for the pair, I work at a body shop, but did everything, exc paint at home. I had to sacrifice a clean e30, but wound up rly not having to buy much more than paint. And honestly I can't say that I put countless hours into it either, it didn't take that long at all.

      Can't tell you if it was a good deal or not if you don't tell us how much it was.

      If you drive your e30 on stairs, you're gonna have a bad time.

            Love that green color, I have always wanted an E30 painted in a similar color. Any more shots of the finished product?

                    Here's another of the damage, as you can see it was pretty serious, it even had a snapped engine mount arm. I had to cut the entire radiator support from the doner car and weld it to the green one.

                      For 4k I'd say that's a pretty good deal right there.

                      Looks great, nice work!

                        Man that color is so ugly
                        That tops bronzit with ease.

                          When I first got it, I hated it too. I basically figured the entire car needed paint. But it grows on you. rly look at it again tomro, you'll hate it less. By the end of the the week, you'll have thoughts of a new paint job.

                            Obviously the right setof wheels will make a big difference. Since your front end is red already I think you should go with a fighter jet theme for now. :) Good deal!

                              Looks like a sleeper if you ask me. Should be fun.
