Alright, after some realization, i do realize i have 2 e30s but only one has a title. The one that does however has some heavy front end damage, look like the frame is definately tweeked. However the other one is intact but the problem of no title for that one, but it is a whole car and definately a project as well.  
I’ll still take some pics, and sorry i haven’t today, been busy as hell. Either can probably be made into track cars.  
Any questions of concerns?
