Don't crack your oil pan.
So i bought an e39 from the place i work, left the e30 there while i drove my new ride.
took my brother to go pick up the e30 and on the way home theres a giant rock in the middle of the road which decides to shatter my oil pan. oh by the way i just finished my newly built m52 engine swap 8k miles ago. now what? any suggestions? i was gonna sell the car but now? sorry, venting. so pissed off right now.

wasn't a plea for help.
wasn't a FS thread. i wanted opinions, not help. decided to turn thread into for sale thread for when after the new oil pan is in. so if you must move it, be my guest! Lol

I would pull the rack and get out the JB wizzle!!! jack under pan to push crack together. Welder would be best though.
