Bad day for my E36 - please help CT

[abharoochi]

Hi guys,

I was considering not posting this as it makes me extremely sad but i need the help. After 2 years of getting my 316i rolling body to a fully running machine with a good solid 318is motor, i had a bit of a run in with a taxi

Anyone in CT who can spare me a door?? LOL!

Hmm curious to know how you can see from the pic that the chassis is bent?

 

[Gizmo]

Windshield smashed from side impact, door hinges pushed inwards, side sill also bent inwards. Both A and B pillars pushed inwards.

Considering those things it's possible the roof has experience deformation too.

Sorry to see this bud.

Specially after basically building her up from scratch.

Eish, sorry bud.

My wife had a crash last year in almost the same position, a panelbeater friend fixed it.

I'm certain that Shamiel's BMW spares in Strandfontein Rd just past 5th Ave will have a door for you.

Seen about 4 E36' they're stripping there. 021 3962063

Was this a white 316i/318i/320i?

A white 316i, yes.

Fixed and sold her after that crash.
