Title: Junkyard E30 in OKC - decent parts left
Post by: nanotech9 on August 15, 2011, 03:49:24 PM

Was dinking around in the Pull-a-part lot in OKC last weekend and ran across two e-30's... with with diving board bumpers.

The better of the two (325) has an electric sun-roof, and KYB Adjustable struts/shocks on it, and green springs in the front. (rear springs are gone).

Also has drilled/slotted rotors, but the slots are mostly gone - i'm thinking they're toast.

Most of the motor is still there, I pulled the computer readout panel off it as well as the overhead display, and the A/C switch.

Also, has cruise control.

Didn't expect to see any in there - was mainly looking for a volvo to pull the spoiler lip and fan off of... which i found, both from the same car :)

I didn't know KYB made adjustables for the e30.  I'd be there if I was closer...my favorite yard just crushed the last of their 80's Bimmers.  Sad day for me.  The oldest BMW they have now is a '91 535iM.

^What junkyard are you talking about?
Are there any other local yards with e30s that you know of??
could definitely be useful

That's up at Wagner and Sons's on Route 19, north of Zelienople.  They only have five BMWs all told.  There's also Millerstown Pick-n-Pull and I think one in Tarentum.  I'll edit this post when I recall it's name.
