I was reading the thread earlier and he wanted 2k for the shell or he was going to throw it out. Seems pretty dumb to me as there is no way that is 2k worth of scrap

there is no way someone would crush an e30 m3 shell.

at least i hope not…

i want to ensure that nothing needs to be changed. I don’t mind cutting tacks, i DON’T want to cut welds.

it’s not an m chassis. the car should only weigh 2400 lbs… ish

You need to keep this project moving so you can take it on the next adventure!! Hahaha.

yeah, i just made an appt for the cage. they said to bring it in on the 14th, and that it will take two weeks. So that means i have to finish the radiator, the tunnel and get the seats mounted by then. and hopefully also get the suspension fitted up. After the cage, it will go to jesse at blast off who will blast the underbody. After that, it is going to be painted, then I will need to do the final assembly on it. Which includes the huge task of rewiring the car. I am hoping that it will be done by the END of may, now, but that is pending on how much money i have. To be honest, I’m pretty close to my funding limit, so I might have to pull some strings to get it finished… Fortunately for me… raises come out in june.
