e30m3 cut in half! what a crime!

[e92mirro]

picked up this m3 cab back end to day from bmw spares for my old engine and a couple of e46 bumpers.
I have been trying to buy this shell that has only light damage with the intention of repairing for years now but sadly is a breaker only so cant be sold
In the end ian agreed to sell me the back end so i can use the arch's and skirts for my track s50/b32 conversion along with my genuine new m3 wings.
Picking up the half m3 today nearly brought a tear to my eye and could not help but feel that this was a crime.

On the upside i have some kool bits for my track car but it feels at a loss for m3 kind. Damm those insurance companys for righting off a repairable m3.

[e92mirro]

To Be Fair it was a cab personaly i think they are kind of pointless as a m3, sort of miss'e the point of a m car

That is a sorry sight

Its a good sight, at least it will be used to make a tin top better and not another bodged up cab

Indeed, that car has been there for at least 6 years !

good to see Ian/Andy and co finally let it go

[Daddycoo1est]

Just go back and buy the front half tomorrow then weld it back together lol

I have never seen the point of any m3 cab's no matter what the E number is as the whole point of a M car is that it is for mortorsport. Whats motorsport can a cab do!
