Seth's E30 build

[SHE30]

So I figured I'd get started with the progress I've made so far, which was remove most of the interior.

And yes the light you see is because the P.O. cut the spare tire well out. Good thing I've got a welder.


Actually the only bit of rust found was on the driver side, but it doesn't look too bad. Mostly surface rust.


The next step is removing all the tar so I can start sanding everything down when I get back from training.

Any info on the car or plans?

Damn, food work man. You have lots of work to do!

[SHE30]

My plans are to slowly but surely build this car from the ground up starting with body work and paint. Hopefully when I'm all finished and have thrown in much money it'll be a pretty nice E30 with a M50 swap :D

S52 obd1 sounds pretty tempting, I plan on doing one in the future! However no funds right now plus still in the middle of this m50.

Cant wait to hit this project hard after I finish mine and we get back from AT. Its gonna be awesome!

Yeah, we need to finish your M50. I actually need to borrow your engine lift to pull my M20 so, I'll be over this weekend to help you put it in.

You seem like kind of a douchebag so I'll try to say this in a way you'll understand.

S5x>m5x

Congratulations. I don't remember stating that M50's were better than S52's but okay.

You seem like a real dick so let me put this in a way you might understand.

$500 m50< $3700 s5x. Maybe he wants to save $$$ and he's suitable with an m50.

Like he said, where did he ever claim an m50 was better? GTFO!

Ever driven an M50 versus an S50 car?

S50 stomps all over an M50. I got my 60k S50 for 1800 bucks. Not everything needs to be 3k+. I'm just sayin.
