Jake's e30 is looking better but needs some sort of rear valence REALLY bad. Anybody have one laying around?

M3 bumper yo!

Everybody and there mother(including me) wants parts off the euro car. I'm broke. The temptation to part it is getting worse.

What euro car? Does it have fog lights? :p

Im assuming the vert is a early model with bumper swap?
Wouldnt there be a way to rig it up and on there?

Whoops, you are correct. The car is a early model. I looked right at the front valance then made my response. My bad haha
Probably could get it mounted, but it I wouldn't go m3 unless I was converting the whole car (i.e. fenders, front and rear valance, etc).

Would be a cool project though

82 323i yes but ones cracked

[Wschnitz]

Don't part it out, I'd be interested in it at a reasonable price also. I've always wanted a euro car.

I would really hate to part it but honestly it's worth more in parts especially not having a title I don't think I could get the 2k I'd want for it

[kid325e]

The title people... Don't forget about the title situation.

[Wschnitz]

Yea you probably won't get 2k on here with the title and is knowing what you got it for.

The title being an issue, but it doesn't really matter what someone pays for something. It's a free market. What matters is what it's worth to the seller and a potential buyer.

I know I'm not in a rush to sell it. But I would have no problem letting it go for that, obviously I got an amazing deal on this car. Yes you all know that. But that doesn't mean I'm gonna unload it for cheap. Just finding one of these cars for sale is practically impossible. I'm sure even at 2k it's the cheapest euro e30 anybodys gonna find. Someone will want it I'm patient. So patient I havnt even listed it for sale.

[kid325e]

Good outlook but on the other side of the coin, remember how you found the car? What if the PO was in the same situation and finally decided to let it go for 300.00 after it's sat in his yard for 10 years or so.

Austin kind of hit it on the head, it's only worth what someone will pay. Situation sucks because it's a cool car!

I don't even see the title being that large of an issue. There's ways to get around that. Still a chance I could get the title.

If I had A lot more time. I would probably pay 2k for it but realistically I have two half done dying eta daily's I'm struggling to keep on the road.
The euro car is just not something I'd want to dd at this point. And I really don't have the time or money for another project.

[kid325e]

I have a grumpy old man with a pretty rough looking 67 Mercury Cougar under a tarp that sits in his yard. Has been there for the last six years or so. Neighbors say he's chases people off his property for even asking if the thing is for sale. He's clearly attached to it for whatever reason, whether it be how much he put into it, or got it cheap and knows what its worth and wants top dollar for it. Either way, I see it as a sad thing for everyone. The car will probably rot to the ground right where it sits, as a plethora or worthy and knowledgable enthusiasts could breath life into it. The car will never have a chance. That just kills me.

Another neighbor has a Jensen Interceptor that he saved from someone who was driving it into the ground. That shit makes me happy.
