    Glad I found this place, already giving me ideas.

    Well we picked up a 2010 Platinum Crewmax 5.7l FFV 4x4 about a week ago. It's our first truck, although we had a 2001 4runner for 15 years. That 4runner is the reason we went with a Tundra. We bought it to haul toys and hopefully a boat next summer. Never thought I'd be this stoked on a truck, to tell you the truth never really thought I would own a truck. My car background is in VW/Audi/BMWs. Going from daily driving a 2010 535i wagon to this is quite the change. This thing is huge. One thing I can't wait to do in it is to tow the E30 to a track day.

    Pretty stock right now. I did have the pleasure of replacing 2 door lock actuators already though. The only downside is it is the one color I didn't want. Which also happen with the last 2 cars I bought myself as well.

    It seems nice but the lock tumbler is all jacked up and won't come out to be replaced.

    Black, the only color that is dirty before you are done washing it.

    Currently the only pic I have access to. I can get you more if you want. Still has the M20 in it. Planning a 2.8 stroker build and then turbo it later. We picked this up back in 2008 before the E30 tax got nuts. Originally was planning an S52 swap but we had our first kid, then bought a house, etc.. She has been sitting like this, just waiting.

    @Rube207 Have our E30s met before? I like where you are going with your Tundra

    Nice! Doubtful, mine is a 91 318i project car that doesn’t get driven enough or worked on enough since kids came along. Great car, just needs more love than I can give it right now.

    Welcome from Delaware

    Damn....... E30’s!
    I haven’t worked on them in years, but have a shitload under my belt until the E36 chassis came into play.
    I could take one apart and back together with my eyes closed if my cart had all the right tools on it.
