Scott, I've fixed your images but you've chosen the thumbnails only so that is all I had to go on. You need links for the the "real" pics.

where about in oz you live mate? I was traveling around there 2 years..and I didn't saw any major rust on cars except abandoned cars in outback and some 4wd-s...the only main problem your cars have there is sun damage on paint and dash board. Not many E30-s you have there either. I was in F1 comp. in Melbourne and Victoria state bmw club was on grass as well..I expected more cars for this event.
Here some picts
I did love the idea of using window socks over there on cars(never seen them before ) , they can be very useful when traveling...and your country is great...I still love it
With Mtech2 this car would look perfect! Get some better picts up mate

yeah mate im on the west coast.
but yeah the sun KILLS our cars paint needs a LOT of attention
LOL window socks! i have them on the rear doors on my Hilux 4runner ! ideal for keeping the flies out when camping !
not many E30s around these days witch it is why parts are hard to get and and body kits and sport parts are pretty much non existent !
im trying to find a set of sport seats here but i have only seen 1 set in 2 years for sale

Quite a few old Ford perverts on here.
Also, your 320i seems to have E36 front seats.

Im in WA also. Yea it is Euro engines in Malaga, but I think they took over or combined with the the other BMW place a few streets away. He has an Aladin's cave of old E30 stuff in a store room upstairs. Where else do you buy parts? I find the the WA BMW dealer a joke. $1500.00 for a steering rack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I tend to buy as much off of the net as I can.

By the way the only cars that seem to rust in WA are Alfas. I tried to buy a 105 gtv a few years ago. Lordy lordy. How can any car rust that much? I gave up and got into old BMWs.
