    The Beater

    Here are some pics of it. If you look closley you can see what i have done to it.

    First off look closley at the ride height.

    Second look at the engine.

    Enjoy

    I will post more later.





    The bumper strip was pulled off and all the clips and so forth were taken and used for my blue car thus i have left off the black strip.

    *cough* rock climber. *cough*

    i don't think the car being raised up that much is going to help you any vs. the weight you saved removing all of that, at least if you're going to be auto-xing.

    have fun w/ the body roll.

                  probably for the rock climbing you mentioned above. or perhaps mud boggin'. or maybe because those old 22r motors seem to be totally bulletproof, and the damn things run forever ;)

                        he stripped out the interior and deleted about 1/2lb worth of stuff under the hood.

                              Looks to me like you are trashing a perfectly good E30, that only needs minimal engine and body work to be a good car. :roll:
