      My neighbor is selling his 87is shell for around $1700. It's red and completely rust free. Not running but would make a great shell.

        I don't know what he has it up for, but he has a lot of parts for it. He is lazy and won't put it back together.

          who here is good at website design? I need a site for my DJing and I am willing to pay for it. I dont have a ton of cash but I would be very happy to exchange work too, so if you need your timing belt done or something just let me know! want to throw this out to locals before I post in off-topic lounge. or is it a better idea to just use wordpress or something?

          I have alot of experience working on these cars so please look past my noobie nature of 2012!

            I just used Weebly to do the new E30Picnic website. They have a free option that just limits how much data your website can hold (500MB or something, pretty generous, good for ~75 original DSLR quality photos), with just a banner at the bottom saying hosted by Weebly. It was at the suggestion of another r3v'r who works for Weebly. I haven't done much web work before, and it was really easy to set-up, since it is all drag+drop of controls, as opposed to actual HTML/JS/CSS coding. If you have ever used a WYSIWYG editor before you will be able to get by fine.

              Thanks for the tips. I am gonna do some preperation work this week for it (taking pictures, making a new mix) and then launch it. I plan to update it often with songs I like, gear reviews, etc. Really just want to get my name out there but not by posting dumb status updates on facecrack

                Couple of things added to my need to fix list. Looking for HVAC blower motor resistor and a late model year gas tank.

                Prefer in the greater Portland area for the time being.

                  I ended up buying a brand new gas tank for my 91. It was only $180 shipped from Rock Auto, couldn't get mine fixed for that.

                      Buy new Gerard.

                      If you want, I can see what Ryan can get a new one for, though Rock may be the cheapest option.

                      Used tanks are like a white elephant gift - that you can't unwrap until your fuel system is clogged for some unknown reason.

                              Really?! I love moonroof's/sunroof's! Yeah, definitely high mileage, but as long as long as those trouble area's are addressed, I'd be a sweet car! Exterior/interior is money!
