I had a nice e30 :(


#1

Walked outside one morning and this was what my car looked like. It was a hit and run but somebody saw it happen and got the tags but they came back to a stolen car :angry: We are still gonna fix it though. It was perfect but it will still be a nice car when it’s back on the road.

I’ve seen worse.
Find a good shop that knows how to use a frame machine. I’d bet that quarter panel can be pulled back and the stress relieved enough it will take very little finish work.
Looks like you need some rear suspension also.
I use www.car-part.com to find a lot of stuff if you don’t have a good source near you.
