Broke even on the parts car by just selling awful interior bits and the headlights and tail lights.

Still need to take a pic of the 6-speed and throw it up on CL, hopefully that'll be a good $750 and my half of the 3.909 torsen should be around $400. :getin:

Well the URL for the image itself is:

http://fi.somethingawful.com/images/newbie.gif

So it does appear to be the replacement for the Stupid Newbie image.








I am not ready for this sudden and massive change, someone please hold me.

Good. Consider it practice. He told me to pick out something that I want to drive, so I'm thinking a 2002.
2002 is a good idea. Fun cars, easy to work on and parts are easily available.

Two hour conference call now. How do people get anything done when they spend all day on these stupid things? I'm usually able to avoid them but not this time.

Sometimes. Yeah, he is a prick. So what. He's good for the occasional laugh. I had him and tussen takk and a few others blocked for a while, then I realized that they were unintentionally retarded. If you need someone to take out your frustrations on, send me a PM but leave the village idiot alone. Just because he is smearing poo poo all over himself doesn't mean he isn't having fun.

Not sure about the speedster replica but a E30 M3 rolling shell sells for about the same as you could pick up a nice 2002. I'm guessing Speedster replicas are about the same. Of course it depends on what you want the project car for and how much money you have to throw at it. poo poo pretty sure you could buy a nice 2002 for the cost of a S14 rebuild (~8k).

If I didn't already have my 320i (E21) and another parts car I'd be leaning towards building out a 2002 instead. Just find out with minimal (or none but I think you're up north) rust and have fun.

The nice thing about the 02s is that good ones can still be found affordably unlike a lot of cars from that era and especially later BMWs (and most Porsches). Parts availability is decent too and a lot of stuff from later BMWs can be wedged in with a little to no work.
