Hi stanceworks. My name is Tim, I'm from Seattle. 19, college student. New on this forum ( I've been on r3vlimited mostly ) and I have two cars. This is my b**** basket e30 
it's an 87 delphin metallic. Currently has no engine (reason it's so high in the front right now) and I'm finishing up a 2.7i hybrid build for it at the moment. Since I have been carless for the last to months rebuilding the m20 engine, I have been forced to borrow friends and family's cars. So I decided it was time to get another more reliable daily driver. My budget was about 1500 after all taxes. I have always been found of w201s and w124s so I started looking into the w124. Found a few locally for cheap but they had problems. So I started looking through the auctions through my dad's connections, and I found a few I wanted to bid on. Long story short picked this babe up for about 1/3 of what I was originally wanting to spend.
She's a '92 300te with 160k. It was a steal. Runs and drives. On scratch on the front bumper and one small dent on the drives side fender. Other then that the car is straight with no rust (car is from Cali)
I found some w124 builds on here and that's why I'm joining. Plans for the car:
Coils and rep wheels to get me started
Non-sls rear control arms
Non sls end links
Bilstein front ford ranger shocks for the rear
R129 drop hats
And some kind of e36 coils for the front
Cut 2.5 coils from the back
Wheels will be amg monoblocks or ccw classic reps.
Here are some photoshop pics I had done to give me an idea of what it will look like
( Photoshop car is not mine)
Suggestions and feedback always appreciated!
Btw I do fender rolling on the side. Anyone needs theirs done in the Seattle can PM me. I can send you a link to show you my work.
