Any threads or pics for e30 pickup conversions?

oh2fly · 11-06-2009, 12:31 PM

I tried the search function and only found 2 pics by James Crivellone of the yellow M3 version. I have a perfect candidate to build one and was wondering what others have done about a few things.

There are a few floating around, one in SoCal, and one on the eastcoast with a 24v swap. I don't remember usernames though.

^^^ EDIT: that is one of them.

There is one in Hungary, the guys built it to DriftTaxi people in the back.
I'll try to find it.

EDIT: Here it is, there is a 440HP Supercharged V8 under the hood.

There's one in my town, I've seen him parked around and at bfest, probably have a pic or two on my phone. Even had a 5 lug, pretty cool.

my boss here in Germany has a pick-up e30-- M tech I. he built it atleast 10 years ago and said it was a "kit" that he bought back then. Mon. I will ask him again what the name of the company is/was--- his is really one of the nicest I have ever seen.
