pics aint any good but at good money with a lot off intrest !!

[e30topless]

complete turd, are they Fibregash bumpers?

[Jos]

Side shot would be useful, how do you 'convert' a 4 door to 2 door without major structural choppage? Or did they just filler the rear doors up?

[Jhonno]

Been for sale for ages..

A repost also.

[Tom_Maverick]

it's sh*t.. the pics are rubbish, theres no actual decent detail and I HATE Ebayers who post up revisions moaning about low offers, the fact they'll keep it if no-one offers proper money or telling you how many watchers there are and how someone should have a bid..

it just puts me right off. .

[ross_jsy]

I'm sure that was for sale when I first bought my e30!

[fowler]

yep has been up for sale for ever i think i have had 3 e30's in that time

[Rich320I]

agreed looks like tat, but i still want to see a side picture just to see how theyve done the conversion

[ross_jsy]

IIRC if it is the same one I have seen in the past they have cut out the door frame/C pillar to make one long hurst like window. Structural rigidity yo!

Certainly wouldn't want to be in that if it ended up on it's roof

Now this is proper:

[harry_p]

done properly there's no reason why a 2-door conversion has to be any less rigid than a factory two door.

unfortunately unless you see it being done, or do it yourself you don't know how the replacement parts have been made and welded.

sadly there are far too many bodywork bodgers about. a couple of spotwelds and a lump of filler wouldnt be an acceptable method!

That is actually a shiney turd..

[ross_jsy]

Really?

Thanks for ruining it for me Jhonno

[Jhonno]

Sorry

On the OP, in all these years they haven't had the chance to drag it out for proper pics either!

Wish my touring looked that good!!!!!!!

[hennared323i]

Has anyone actually done a decent 2 door touring build?

Isn't that the same as every E30?

[hennared323i]

I did try to get Dips to sell me his original - total fail there.

Did not Sojeard (sp) find an original one a couple of years ago in Holland?

[Ninja_Penguin]

wouldnt it just make sense to find the 2dr touring and m3 it?

[tonybtonyb]

How rare are they..

[Kedge]

How rare are they..

Think it was only something daft like 5 made in RHD, or maybe even in total. I can't remember exactly.

Was done by a couple of guys in Holland i think.

[tonybtonyb]

There was one on ebay a long time ago,was in a sorry state tbh,I heard Bmw made 5 prototypes but I could be wrong.

[Kedge]

They weren't made by BMW. There was a really good article about the chaps that did the conversion somewhere.

[ross_jsy]

The "original" 3 door tourings look spazzy. The mk1 golf boot really tops this awful chariot:



There are a couple of zoners who own them iirc. I think this one is Dipps?
