My abandoned e30 M3 restoration

[deutschman]

So sweet, and great story man! This would be fun to read in the BMWCCA magazine. Sadly it has gone down hill over the last few years.
Cant wait to see what you do with the car. Congratulations!

Did you not read what he said? He said he's throwing an S52 in because of how rare and ungodly expensive S14 stuff is.

no i dint see that smart one thanks for showing me .......

What is this "read" you speak of.

"It's called reading, up to down, left to right. Group words together to form sentences. Take Tylenol for any headaches, Midol for any cramps."

Subbed hope you restore it and not do a 24v swap er anything imo the e30 m3 is perfect stock. But that's my opinion bad ass find. Love it so far man.

Very nice man - literally a dream.

What's the B stand for, stamped on the 4 pistons?

Honestly I wouldn't know, that would be a question better asked to someone more familiar with the s14

Awesome story! Awesome find! I feel like you don't need to paint it though, right? Since it's single stage it should just be polished out unless there is heavy pitting or cracks?

It might not look bad in the pictures but the front bumper is full of rock chips and pitting, it was repainted poorly in the 90s and didn't age well with he rest of the paint. The paint at the top of the windshield is also peeling and it's just generally beat.

I shed a tear

Wow. Incredible. That's quite the find. What a deal.

Exactly how I feel. Awesome find mate. Can't wait to see what you do with it.
