Scrap yards

I can add to that list.
Sommerset Scrap and Salvage- has 4-5 e30s, 1-2 e36s. The e36 i went out there for was fresh to the yard, the guy hadnt even inventoried it yet, that was about mid-may. not the best prices or selection, and the guy is kind of a tool but there were well over 1000 cars in the yard.
Rite-Away Imports in Big Lake, MN. this place was super fun! Sort of limited selection but had an assortment of e30s, 34s, 36s, 39s. I came in with a list of parts I needed and he said it would be about 500, once I had it all out and ready to pay for, he gave it to me for 200 bucks. Its a bit of a haul but seriously, the drive is half the fun. I spoted this from across the yard. To me, it was the sign pointing me to the good stuff, but I shed a tear for the poor guy, all alone up there and mostly stripped.
I forget the website that I used to find salvage yards that have parts handy but there is a search engine out there that y'all might find helpful.

Well, at least that e36/7 is out of its misery now. Sad really because you never see the clown shoe Z much...
ANywho I have a buddy who works over at B&M. He says they get all kinds of things, and they save turbos and engines if they're good. I told him to be on the look for an E30/6, but so far no word from him on that

Made a parts run to Schmidt's Auto Salvage here in Waunakee, its the largest yard in the Madison area and its a pick n pull. I took an inventory of their bimmers that they've had for a while now. Most of the E36 interiors are picked apart but they all have most drive train stuff with the exception of the ti.

Al's in Franklin is a pick and pull, they sometimes have a bmw or two. I haven't been there in a while though. There is also a big one in Waukeegan I have heard about. Also http://www.car-part.com/ is a good site for checking where cars are.

Bringing this back from the dead...
I got this vin's in July 2021 from Gibson's in Neenah. I only took inventory of cars I was interested in though so e39 and older. There were plenty of E46's around as well and a couple E60's. Now that I can easily convert pics to text I'll take down all the vins next time I go.
