E30 with E39 M5 Power

[Richy325iTouring]

Glenn: are you going to respray the new shell or leave it as it is?
and how much did this e30 cost?

I think glenn is keeping it the colour it is

and it was cheap

[Chaos]

fancy doing another one glenn

[glenn]

that's the best way to do it nick.
that way you get every thing you need.
and you can sell the other parts you dont need to make a little back

[glenn]

made a start on removing the running gear off the car this morning.
engine is almost ready to come out.
removed aall the stuff underneath, only topside to finish





will try to get some pics up later of the 'new' 350i

nice work Glenn, got to be done. reminds me of pulling out the first m30 and putting the new one in needing different mounts, exhaust, electrical connections etc - lot of work but worth it!

anyway it was the wrong colour before. everyone knows the fastest e30s are bronzit beige

[glenn]

thanks for the comments
but this project is going on hold for a little while,
and i'm not going to be using the bronze bomber now as i've acquired
a m3 shell to take the v8 running gear.
but i cant bring the shell here yet as i'm now about to start a V12 touring.
when i start that project,( picking up the 750i next weekend) i'll put a
build thread up for it
