    Eh, the next family cruiser/ winter beater will probably be a Volvo then, they seem to be the best against rusting to pieces.  Not as stylish though.

      E34's get rusty. All of my doors have rust and one rocker has a hole underneath that I just noticed. Otherwise the car is pretty clean. The paint is pretty torched from Texas though. I am thinking if I get coils, the car will have a motorsport theme and I wont have to worry about making it super clean

        I forgot to post in this thread that the car was totalled out:

        Everyone knows already though. I have had the car sitting in the driveway at my apartment since the accident. I had it sold twice but they both fell through. I've been contemplating doing different things with it but I don't really have a reason to keep it. If anyone is interested in it let me know. I'm thinking $700 isn't a terrible price to throw out.

            I might be interested. What's wrong with it besides the front end damage?

              Front end feels odd. This has been since before the accident. I replaced the passenger strut finally but it still needs an alignment. I think the steering box may have play and be causing the floaty feel. 

              Other than that it has a cut off muffler and the heat doesnt work. It has both a leaky heater core and a shot blower motor resistor. 

              Damage wise it needs a fender, hood, header panel, grille, headlight assembly, and core support.

                Rear tires are also pretty smooth

                        The rear tires must have been pretty good
