    Scrapping my E30: What do I keep?

    So it needs to be gone now, I took the drivetrain out, and I made a CL ad for someone to come tow the rest of it away for scrap steel.

    I am planning on keeping some other stuff like subframes, control arms, swaybars, steering rack, interior parts that are still good, speakers, etc, but the rest is going to go.

    Any other "waaaaait don't scrap xxx!!!" requests?

        dont forget the obvious things like booster
        window motors
        steering linkage
        windshield motor
        blower
        fuel pump coil ignition etc will bring ya in an extra couple hundred bucks, plus they are better used in other peoples e30s than lost in a metal yard and melted down.

          The car is going today so it would have to be quick.

          Yep I have 1.5 hrs to feverishly remove all that until someone shows up with a trailer!

            From what I could see, your rear seat looks to be in decent shape. I'd save it for future use.

                  Do you have the tray that covers the battery? If so, I need one...

                    Hows the condition of the driver door? I could use one.

                      Rear seat and all door cards saved. Leather is in great shape btw.

                      YeP I saved all the sound gear, but could only find one tweeter pod

                      The shell is gone, the dude just drove away.

                      Also, I saved front and rear subframes and everything attached to them (suspension, steering, etc) and I saved the brake calipers and other little things.

                        Do you have a premium sound amp and rear speakers?

                        Consider them sold if so and they are good.

                          I do, and they look to be in great shape. Tan speaker covers btw.
