    3rd e30 + timeline (re-introduction)

    Hey y'all. I dont really post her much, but i'm a full time reader/lurker. I recently bought my 3rd e30 which is a 1991 318i 4dr Diamond Schwartz with a shitty respray. I don't have any pics of when it was purchased, but I have recent pics of the derp.

    For those that are wondering ill post pics of the first 2.

    #1 was a 1988 325i Vert Zinno, The one who got me on this bandwagon.
    Stock, this love bird was super clean. I dearly miss it.


    After H&R races and billy sports. w/ e90 hats




    bought some wheels


    then installed with some azenis 205 something 15's




    butt shot


    Top down!



    the mtech 2 370mm i regret selling before i had got rid of the car. /sigh



    So i bought a parts car with a 5 speed in it for the swap into the convertible. ended up driving the parts car because i got the troll running. it was a death trap. fun as hell though. I gave the vert to a family member.

    heres chalky. bought in late 2009?


    I painted the hood for shits n grins.


    from 2010 till the begining of 2012 e30 less driving this around
    2001 Triumph TT600. bought the bike previously laid down. took off all the plastics and had the fender tank and rear cowl painted chevy grey with 9 coats of clear.





    also bought an oldie 1980 cb750F Super sport. Mint. had for 3 months sold when charging system went out 3 times. owner who bought it fixed that day and totalled it the next. I wish i didnt sell it.

    both of my lovelys for a shitty cell pic at night >_>



    Feb, 22. 2012 Bike was hit when i was sitting on it still, it squished the rear end. still recouping from that one. I was punted forwards. bike went underneath the occupant at fault. Totalled out. a week after i bought the 3rd e30.



    and before y'all ask here are pics of the 1998 M3 behind my triumph in the pics. warning, super duper clean.





    Now the 318. 1991 318i 4dr 5 speed with over 230k miles shitty respray needs some body work and some more love. I am half way in swapping the interior for all cardinal pieces. H&R sports with billy sports. all new suspension stock bushings and what such peices refreshing. still has working r-12 A/C. ill take more photos tomorrow. i just now noticed while typing the photos i took are now corrupted and errored. / sigh but this is what i found on my phone

    cleaned and previous vert in garage from family member changing out fan clutch radiator and transmission fluid change.



    found some mud



    all the bikes behind the thurty are for the shop that i do work at. keeps me busy.

                      M3 is a 95. Really clean though.
                      Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

                          I'm just north of you in The Woodlands, Those BBS's on the '91 used to be mine. I sold them to my neighbor and he sold them to Jordan. I'm guessing you used to work with him since I recognize the salvage in the pics. Oh, and that e36 is a '95, not a '98, that was also Jordan's.
