this has been going on for about 1 year now,it all started off when i was browsing on ebay and came across someone selling a M60 3.0 engine & gearbox complete for £250,so i sat there thinking f*ck it lets build another one.
so off i went to buy this engine and gearbox,obviously i was only intrested in the gearbox/clutch and flywheel,but for £250 even that was a steal!
so after purchasing that,i was on the look out for a 740i or a 540i,then i found a L reg e32 740i auto which had covered 98,000 miles with a recent top end rebuild costing nearly 2.5k with invoices to prove.
got it back,took the engine out and scrapped the rest,after that over the next few months bought some engine and gearbox mounts from GAMA motorsport,went to my BMW main dealer and spent nearly £450 on new seals/gaskets etc.
over the next few months i decided to change all the seals, gaskets on the engine,then came up the famous BBB lightened billet steel flywheel,which i thought i just had to get.
along with that i bought a brand new clutch and some custom manifolds.
so then i bought a 2 door 320i auto shell the other week and collected it the other day,for £250 i think was a steal,and was only around the corner from me.
it has a few dings,a scrape on the passenger side rear quarter,but no rust!also has full OBC,rear opening quarters, etc.
Heres some pics-




so here are some parts/goodies which i have purchased over the last few months which are for this project-
