E30 streeter build

[tcanin00]

I also have an M10 engine, computer, wiring, AFM box, and other parts that came with my car that I am not using. I'll give you the AFM box if you pay for the shipping.

thats bad!
if i were you i'd scrap it!

if you want to save it you NEED to CUT it all out and weld in good material, once you start cutting then you'll know exactly how bad it really is

[tcanin00]

You could find one cheaper than the cost to ship it to you. Terrible luck on your floor! It looks like water sat in the floor and deteriated it. Does the sunroof seal properly? How is the whether, does it snow during your winter season? This area destroys cars because of road salt and extremely rough roads.

Hows the passenger side? Shouldn't be too hard to find a donor vehicle to cut that all out of and weld it into yours. Great work so far though!

Awesome! Glad to see it getting some love, I hate rust. Times like these I'm glad my car doesn't have any at all :o

Looking forward to see what happens once you get the rust and maintenance sorted, good luck!

That's cool your friend can fix it for you. I would hate to see a car like yours be scrapped over something that can be fixed. I would look for other leaks though, like around the windshield or the fresh air intake for the hvac.

Hvac is heating ventilation air condition. We tend to use the term more in reguards to home systems then automotive. Nice find on the Mtech 1 wheel.

Thanks tcanin00 ill have a look into the Hvac. I am mostly just waiting on parts for the car atm, But looking at the old dirty headlights, grille and headlight surrounds was killing me so I brought one of those headlight leanse cleaning kits and got stuck into cleaning the headlighs!

Here they are after beeing cleaned with the Invison kit


Painted VS old headlight surrounds


And all put together With black kidneys.

The headlights and grilles really turned out nice! The average person is usually in such a hurry with a car project that they just buy new parts. I like to see when the time is taken to repair and reuse parts that can be fixed. Excellent work. How are things going with getting the floor fixed?

Thanks mate. I think I'll head down today and grab some sheet metal once I have that I just have to wait for my mate to let me know when he is free to do it.
