        with plenty of money anything is possible

        just because a person cant spell or type does not mean that they cant twist wrenches, and maybe you do have the skills, so good luck

        Im still kind of a newbie, but you wont win friends coming on here cusing at older established people who could help
        Thank you man. You said exactly what needed to be said.

                  so far i got the engine out, all the interior,stripping all the electrics out tommorow, then im gonna get the car sanded back to bare metal, fill in the badge reccesses on the boot and bonnet, and get rid of all handles and completely smooth the car, then im going to prep the body for painting in a few days.so far... ive got the 4litre v8 out of a 740i and im going to colour code the engine and upgrade all the hoses to samco silicones,in the meantime, the engine is going to be completely reworked,stainless steel clips and brackets, head gasket,clutch, needs new manifold making up to fit as the v8 standard one is too big to fit in e30, so some stainless steel work going in instead.will keep all posted as work goes on, have got some pics to go on in a few days when the engine is ready to go in the e30.
