5k per picture?

I wonder if there is a general rule of thumb, say, $750 asking price per picture? 

Gunmetal Grey I’m wondering if you ever have anything to say that’s not generally derogatory. Every time I see anything on here from you it’s condescending.

I was wondering if that IX with front end damage on Craigslist was yours? 

Yep. Still toying with the idea of parting it out. I have a frame guy out of Hartford going to do an estimate on pulling it straight and welding in a new core, but if I can unload it I wanna focus on my S52 e30

Yas. Brought them up to my dad to see if he wants to put them on his X5. Otherwise theyre for sale. Style 58's. Traded a dude on here for the KMAC Camber Plates

[Style 58 18" Wheels x 4]

Style 58's off an X5 took on trade. 

Will trade for BMW z3 steering rack or e30 stuff.

or cash

[E36 KMAC Stage 1 Camber Kit]

These were off the parts car that I bought for my S52 E30. I know they were not on the E36 for very long... Just got rusty when I trailered the car on an open trailer in a blizzard then sat.

So the bearings and bushings should be like new. Just some corrosion externally due to the reason above.

Wash, grease and go.

Curious if anyone can help me identify these rear trailing arms by part number. Ive searched around and nothing comes up with this part number or any variation of it.. 

They're thought to be off a 6 Cylinder Z3 for my 5 lug swap, I just want to confirm so I order the right bearings but nearly all of the trailing arm part numbers start with 333.

These start with 385... if you drop the 7. Haha.

The numbers end in 762 and 761 for right and left which is consistent with the other trailing arm part numbers ive found but nothing starting with 385... And those 7's look an awful lot like 1's...

Im embarrassingly confused. 

Help PLEAAAAASE!

There is frequently a ground point on the opposite frame rail. 
Just a stud chilling out with a bit of a flat plate behind it. 

Mods should move this thread to the build thread area. 

Please do

It looks as if the bracket was used as a grounding point. Found this pic off a thread on r3v that shows a ground strap hanging from there.

 

Thanks Mike! Did you end up grounding that there on your swap or going elsewhere?

 

[Re-engaging in the community!]

Also what is this bracket for on the drivers side frame rail!?! I don't recall removing anything useful from there and I'm having a hard time seeing it in other e30 bay pictures and it doesn't exist on my 1991... you can also see it in the last picture I just posted above... this picture below is NOT mine. Not sure what hes doing but its the only thing ive found that references this bracket! Just want to know before I hack it off for my tuck!

Alot of behind the scenes progress so to speak as far as acquiring information and components for my harness. I've got the harness out of the donor car, ill be working on getting that crossed over to utilize the C101 to mate to the chassis of the 86 e and deleting whatever isn't necessary. Also a ton of time spent cleaning up the engine and bay, deleting brackets for a mild wire tuck and chipping off and wire wheeling 20 years of crusties off the S52 cast block. Also still have to swap the pan and sump, build a dipstick with CCV and safety wire the oil pump gear on.

Im working on a complete list of things that have yet to be done so I can logically go about completing them so I don't have to back track! Ill get my list together and post it up so if you guys can help me out that way that would be awesome!!

haha yeah. So am I! I didnt make much progress this summer due to work travel but Ill hopefully continue to make progress now. At this point im cleaning up the bay, Im going to tuck as much as I can and clean it up. Probably just paint the bay black and be on my way to engine install. 

[Re-engaging in the community!]

Well considering the engine isnt in the car and its basically just a roller I have no opinions to share. Other than the brakes are massive and according to everything I've read the parts I've used are the best set up for the e30 in regards to handling improvement (late e36 m3 control arms up front)
