Whats worth keeping??

[Das02]

I'm going to be parting out a 81 320i tommorrow. Is there anything besides the rear brakes, trans, and hubs, I should bother with taking off?

Thanks

search archives for details on the other bits to salvage.

get the wiper relay--same location under the dash as on the '02. Think the flasher unit is the same too. And don't forget the relays and inertia reel seat belts.

The flasher relay is different than the 2002, a bit smaller and 3 prong. Take the front seats if they are in good shape and the rear as well, you can always swap the material/padding from the 320i rear seat on to the 2002 rear seat frame, the fronts would be a direct swap.

Booster is used by those who put an M50/S52, etc. (from an E36) into an E30 chassis - this is done in order to provide clearance for the intake manifold of the M50/S52 engines.

The radiator, cooling fan, side mirrors (if early) wheels?

Pat,

The door mirrors are also different, I think changed from the flag style '79/'80? could still save them though..the interior rear view mirror, as mentioned, is a good swap.

Steering wheel if it's that 3 spoke design. I guess the other style would also swap.

Half shafts too.

They don't appeal to everyone's taste but I like the visors used with e3 mirror, 1/4 glass latch, and ebrake.
