      That guy should've bought Matt's S50 for what he paid for the M50.

      Shitty thing is, he paid up extra and has an M50, you're still searching. Sometimes it's not worth beating around the bush and trying to haggle, etc., etc. If it seems like a good deal, and a solid engine, pick it up.

      If you're willing to wait for the deals they will pop up. Problem is they always seem to when you're NOT looking to buy an engine. Good luck finding what you need! I just sold an M50 for 250.00

      Joel, can I see pics of the wheels and car?! Corvairs are awesome.

        Not putting up photos until the new wheels are on it, possibly until after I drop the nose a little bit too. I'm sure that I'll throw a gallery up here though.

            I agree, Paolo. When I wasn't looking for an S50, they were everywhere. When I wanted one, couldn't find shit. Ended up paying a lot for one, but it was worth it because it was from a guy I trusted and a known good motor. YOLO

              Yup. Known history and piece of mind is worth a lot in my book.

                One of my things was I didn't have $1500, and I had a problem paying that much for it, when I know that I can get one for cheaper if I wait. For now I'm still building a Seta to shove in my 325 to get it back on the road.

                  Right? I ended up selling my S52 for $1100 and I had to deliver it in Kelso. I know e30 guys are cheap but, they're getting Volvo 240 cheap.

                      That'd be pretty awesome. Fucking Volvos, 240 owners are some funny guys. They think they're the hottest shit ever.

                        Test fitting my new fogs today, I'm pretty happy with the size, they fit like a glove. Now I just have to fab up a bracket to permanently mount them.

                          And that makes them different from E30 owners how?
