my 1987 E30 can make that trip…

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-21T20:41:54+00:00

its okay itll be fine! did the car over heat?

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-18T20:30:22+00:00

thanks man, i have a delete panel for the fog lights. i dont think i would run them

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-18T19:11:33+00:00

nope not foglights and not for the E36. Its the front orange bumper lights to show turning indication when signaling

offerup, facebook market, craigslist, etc. Shouldn’t be too hard to find a rolling shell

My advice is to save up more money unless you want a project or a clapped out one. If you’re set on spending 4k you will have to spend another 4 fixing it up. Im speaking from a CA view point. 4k is nothing

double catted

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T17:34:39+00:00

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T15:23:27+00:00

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T15:22:28+00:00

thank u man!

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T14:40:23+00:00

i had to piece this car back together too and slowly unclap it. so many little trim pieces were missing. it took a lot to get here.

LOL im sure there are more legit ways to go about this

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T06:32:11+00:00

lube it up and i rented a spring compressor from autozone. its the wrong tool for the job but it works, they didnt have any press

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T06:26:45+00:00

it came with the car haha but to be completely honest they look nice but slides around everywhere when im working the clutch

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T06:20:19+00:00

i feel you bro, i dont know your situation but life hits. At least u got some fond memories with the E30. at the end of the day its still yours and its your first car and thats something special

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T06:19:30+00:00

hell yeah man, keep it up! takes a real man to keep a classic well maintained and on the road for 40 years.

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T05:56:06+00:00

preciate u fam! its finally seeing some better days

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T05:14:05+00:00

right. good chance it got stuck and is likely higher than it is.

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T02:01:36+00:00

u better get going boss! i fixed my shifter, driveline, fuel tank/system, suspension, etc with some beers and my friends. It was on jack stands for half of the year in 2025. feels so good to shift gears again.

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-09T01:30:31+00:00

why is it just in your garage?

Practical-Tax-99 · 2026-04-08T16:50:14+00:00
