[ian332isport]

[--alpina--]

Give me extra strength!! i would personally BUURRRRRRNNN it and do an insurance job but depends how much you love rust ....

[dazleeds]

Give me strength

its true i tells ya

[beemer_twins]

why?

[--alpina--]

Why not? get another rust free car otherwise go ahead and repair dude...

[beemer_twins]

because its difficult to find another 4 door 316 i without travelling 50 miles once its all dun it aint ever going to rust again init lol

[dazleeds]

why?

sometimes its better to cut your losses and run

this sounds like one of those times to me fella

frag it

keep the kit sell whatever you can and find a solid shell

your mechanic is about to pull down your pants and have
his wicked way with you both if you try saving this shell

harsh realitys, if the rot is as bad as you say forget it

ps i have a 4dr 325i for sale taxed tested

[--alpina--]

Dude, rust is equivelant to the humans body "cancer", you cut it out BUT nothing is permanant ... simply your buying time.. it comes back!! unless you treat it heavily thinking its safe... but like when you kick a football against a wall -- it always comes back!!!


"your mechanic is about to pull down your pants and have
his wicked way with you both if you try saving this shell "

LLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLL

So you asked if it's too (well in your words 'to' ) rusty to fix and whether it's worth saving. Everyone said it's not worth it and that you should break it, and you decide to patch up the shitter.

A decision you will come to regret, that car will be hiding major issues. Check behind the kit, under the carpet, around the fusebox, behind the glovebox etc etc. And you will find more rot.

£1000 later and you will have a car worth about £1.87 more than it is now.

[--alpina--]

PATCH UP THE SHITTER... LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL sorry you lot, this is turning out to be hilarious as theres a car thats probably gonna fall apart with rust and everyone here is trying to give some sound advice, gotta remeber one time or another, whilst driving this DEATH TRAP you may have chunks of rust falling off in other places unexpectidly......... live long dump the car, or die young keep the car!!! your choice.. every time you sit in the shitter you clock is ticking....

but da machenic is basically cuttin out the rust and re galvanising the hole of the chassis

Cost a bit more than £500 to do this ! probably a few bits of metal (hopefully) and some paint

[Andyboy]

Get some cardboard and some red welding (fibreglass paste) in there, good coat of underseal and drive the shitter up a few muddy tracks. You know it makes sense.

[--alpina--]

Then couple of months is "hello rust"

[ian332isport]

Then couple of months is "hello rust"

I think you'll find that Andy's extracting the Urine

[cypriot_boy_2k7]

[bazza93]

going by the pics it is fella

[cypriot_boy_2k7]

[maxfield]

You took the tech 2 kit off and had a look under there?

Normally a big suprise under there.

[dazleeds]

u really cant tell from that pic, i own the car trust me!!

believ me we can

seen it all before my sport was worse than this

[bazza93]

scrap it mate, you will thank yourself oneday

[cypriot_boy_2k7]

yeah took it off, needs a little bit of work its just got surface rust, at the end of the day it comes down to the individual, we all lean from our mistakes

[beemer_twins]

no rot in them places, ive had other quites but there really shit mechanics they no good for shit this is a guy who i can trust so i think its worth it, its not buyin time it basically buyin a nu shell the way he is going to do it

[dazleeds]

[cypriot_boy_2k7]

[d1mmy]

Choice is yours - Go with the good advice with some of the experienced people on the hread whose advice you asked for.

Or ...................

Personaly i would sell the parts. And look for a really clean example

[m3ben05]

Dont underestimate the knowlage of some of the people (not me) who have given you advice on this one mate. Some of them have seem a million rusty turds in their time. If their telling you its not worth saving then its not - FACT

If I was you i would be listening mate

[oakey]

dont bother with the repairs. for the price you have said i doubt the repairs will keep the rust away for long. your a very lucky that you have got that kit and those wheels on youre car so make the most of it and sell it in parts, save a bit of money and you may get back enough to buy an e30 that wont be rotting away as you drive it.

[beemer_twins]

its not really that bad the worst bit of rust is the arch

[H35-IAN]

frag it kit 400 if genuine , wheels 100+ dep on condition , weigh it in fill it with total shit then your looking £90
