My First E30! *Build Log*

[RobTapps88]

Started filling in the door and gave the front a fresh undercoating, still have a couple minor holes to patch up there and will have to go over again with some undercoating. The door "bump" trims are not going back on. Also I shaved the antenna..

Huge shouts to Stvstr for hooking me up with some much needed parts! A gas tank, front subframe, front swaybar with mounts and a rear bumper.

Never in a million years would I have thought a stranger from the internet would reach out to give a hand when I really needed it. Thank you man you have been a masssssssive help in moving this project forward! Hope we can keep in touch and have fun in the states, fly safe and don't give your seat up for anything less than $3000 ;)

More rust repair.. and how she currently sits.. whole fuel system needs to be reworked. Filler is rotted, tank is rotting.. so going to cut the trunk and install a cell then wall the trunk off..

Don't know about you, but I fully intend to explore alternative methods of victory in the event of a duel.

LOL on the above. I'll bring the flintlock duelling pistols. ;)

As will I... .50 lead shot and a random gr. Count lol cross your fingers and hope you get the first hit XD

Dually noted and I am wearing pajamas my sister bought me for Christmas because it's cold as it's -5c outside. Why does my choice of clothing get you triggered so badly? Do my clothes affect you in any way, shape or form?

Sir, your attire is an affront to all good taste. I demand satisfaction and expect to meet you at dawn, good day.

You should really make a new thread here: http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/forumdisplay.php?f=148 or ask a mod to move this one.

Also, what in the world are you wearing? To me it looks like you are a very large 6 year old who somehow managed to get their hands on one of my Moms jackets from when I was about 6.

Also straightened my steering wheel today.. the brakes are down to metal on metal however so those are getting bumped to first on the list with the swaybar mounts.. then suspension parts and subframes, hope the weather gets better soon so I can start real work on the car.

In future try to not get brake clean on plastics as it can damage them rather easily.

Props to you for working outside in the mud with snow next to you on a nonessential project. That really embodies the spirit of a younger E30 owner than I am anymore.

I rinsed them immediately after cleaning the paint off as I was worried about it damaging the plastics, it wasn't legal and I can't afford any more tickets.. now on to brakes rotors and a temp swaybar mount until I gather all the parts for the front end rebuild
