    After about 2 weeks, insurance is finally doing stuff. The other company took full liability, yesterday the dude confirmed the car is totaled, I gave him a list of comparable cars from BaT and a list of all the modifications to my car. Hopefully I'll hear back about stuff some time this week, I just want to get it over with.

    I've also been thinking about it and I'm leaning towards just parting everything out since I don't have the time/space/desire to re-shell it. I'll still DD my '91 coupe, so that's nice. Keep your eyes out for a full 5-lug setup, m30 swap, maybe some euro goodies, and a vert hardtop in the next month or so.

    Also, hi spency.

              I haven't really dealt with rust before. How bad does this look? I also assume the door/fender damage is all body panels, nothing structural?

                  I am determined to come visit you this winter. I tried to come around Thanksgiving, but then some family stuff came up. I tried to come last week, but then some stupid workplace politics forced me to haul ass back to LA on New Years Day. Ain't nothing gonna stop me from driving my E30 to your shop. I'll bring my Nomad when its done too so we can do wheelies up and down your street.

                              So now someone can still rip off the stereo, and no one will pay attention to yet another blaring car alarm.

                              I've never understood the need for a car alarm. They might have done something 30 years ago when they were new, but now no one cares. Its just another car alarm going off and causing noise pollution. (I'll never have one in a car thats for sure.)

                              As for the rust in the door pics, it could be bad, it could be surface rust. You will have to remove the paint around it, then sand the rusted area and see what is below. If you end up with clean metal, no big deal. If you end up going through the panel, yeah, its going to take some work to fix. Either way it will need paint.

                                wouldnt be to0o0o0 worried though because its on the front quarter panel. If it was on the rear I'd be more worried because of it being a cut and weld deal rather than potentially easier and cheaper to just replace the whole quarter panel.
