    Bought something new.... little bit of teaser content

    So I "finally" bought another e30!

    Bone stock, born in '89 like me.
    Euro hubcaps and plastic bumpers,
    No sunroof,
    No power windows,
    No fog lights
    5 Speed,
    Smilies (smokin 'em for my 323i)
    Interior, won't be staying

    It's filthy, but it's straight and rust free. No dents that I can see before it gets cleaned, and only a couple of coin sized chips in clear coat. the front needs straightening up slightly, (valence and bumper)

    Haha, My parents think I'm crazy buying a second car at barely 19, and I'll admit, I may have bitten off more than I can chew...

    Anyway Here are some pictars for your prying eyes!








    Anyone want a guess at the teaser part?...
    :p




    BTW
    I know I haven't posted any photos of my 323i in ages,
    but I picked up an orbital buffer yesterday so tomorrow I'll hopefully be giving my paint a re-birth,
    so I might try and go out for a shoot, then post up some pics with a bit of an update.

        Looks great, I love the color. Those seats definitely need some love, but it looks like a great project.

                Really? ...
                Then I bet you haven't seen one with no sunroof? :p

                You occasionally see coupes around here, but RARELY without sunroofs.

                And yeh I love the hubcaps, Definitely One good reason to do suspension before wheels.

                I'm so excited, but unfortunately, I have no where to put it yet. I arranged for it to stay at the sellers house for up to two weeks, and I've got a garage i can use for storage only for bout another two weeks after that, If I can't find somewhere to work on it by then, This poor baby will be singing the blues.


                Here's a little less subtle teaser content:



                Just incase you were wondering about the 10" suspension lift in the front...

                        $650AU

                        I am very happy with the price,
                        Down here, e30's can fetch more than double what they're worth in America.
                        Great price for a new (lol, less than 20 year old) BMW!

                        OH and a bit over there...



                        ....aaand, some over here:





                        It's all there but the Engine is fried, might make a good coffee table or something (:roll: original, I know...)
                        Haha this thing is 5 years younger than my 323i, and has almost double the K's!
