    I also lowered it and swapped the wheels over while the convertible is getting some tlc





    Haven't got any photos with the bbs's on but you get the drift.

                    Cheers guys. Got a chance to take some snaps with the bbs's on before I swapped them back to the convertible





                    Also motor and box are out.





                    Turns out I have a zf 310 box which was a nice surprise. 😊

                                Realised today that this is the first time these two have been together.

                                    Starting to make progress on the engine swap. M40 is sold so will be pulling that out tomorrow



                                    Starting to strip down the m50 and clean it up. Coming up pretty good with a bit of oven cleaner.



                                    Will be removing the front fan tomorrow and having a look at the thermostat housing. If it looks alright I'll keep the head on for the time being. If it's shagged I'll pull it off and recondition it.

                                    Will upload more photos as it come together.

                                    Bit of inspiration for the night. Turbo is 80% locked in 👍

                                                    Started pulling the engine out today











                                                    Also dropped the rocker cover / valve cover off today to be acid dipped and media blasted. Will be picking it up in Thursday to hopefully it comes up sweet. Also ordered the paint for the re-spray tried to match the original colour as best as possible.
