my E30 story

[Laishes]

Atleast you weren't under the car when it fell off the stands; christ.

[johnprusinski]

yes, it was pretty scary having to jack the car back up and then 20 minutes later have to go under it again. im taking extra precautions to make sure the car is sturdy now.

[Brian.]

That's crazy he sold it. Now what's he gunna use?!

[johnprusinski]

He is done with his E30. He is parting it out. It's a very sad thing to hear but it's what he wants. R. I. P. jakes E30 drift car

[Brian.]

I doubt this. Jake loves his car.

where did we go wrong

[johnprusinski]

well i finally got my motor to my house. it came yesturday but the box truck we used was too tall for us to lift out with a normal engine jack. we ended up putting it on a car trailer and using a pallet jack to move it in today. 

[andyhundley]

the car looks great so far. on a side note, would you be willing to sell the intake and the valve cover? and also i bought the lip off of jakes drift car. R.I.P.

[johnprusinski]

Are you talking about the m50?

[Earl]

Hey list the 2.7l for sale. Someone needs to build a stroker.

[johnprusinski]

I plan to put it up on the parts forum once I find out what will all go with it.

[KaiserRolls]

i agree with the stroker.

would be sweet.

[johnprusinski]

i got the motor out now. now its just sitting around waiting to be taken away. 

and just cause merica

[Brian.]

Ditch this BMW an work on that old C10.

[johnprusinski]

its not mine, and my dad doesnt have the money to put into it.

[johnprusinski]

alright i just got done with the gas tank. i decided to try and fix the hole. why not if its out right? i tried to do it sort of right so here it is. 

here is the damage.

i started by buying a bunch of that quick steel and rubber undercoat. i then used a wire wheel to remove the paint that was around the hole. i then put three layers of that quick steal on and all over the hole. 

this is all of the putty stuff i put on. i fully went over board but i dont know if this will actually work and why not. 

i then sprayed two cans of rubber undercoat on the whole tank. i obviously cleaned the whole thing in mineral spirits and also wire wheeled the rust on the seams so it wouldnt rust any more. 

id say it went very well and that the tank wont leak.

Good job john;)
