Loaded on a trailer and took it to the dump. $25 at the time(10 years ago). I was surprised that no questions were asked.

Or the wrecking yards car refer you to a local metal recycler that will accept and crush chassis'. We paid the local flatbed tower $60 to haul off a stripped E34 chassis. Gary's right about having the title handy.

I bought a set of Bilstein sports for my E30 from them. I don't remember what I paid, but it was cheaper than anywhere else I could find. I also just ordered new rotors from them and will continue to do business with them. Set of 4 sports (front/rear) is $372.69 ground shipped (about $13) to MN vs. $379 without shipping on shox.com.
