We bought this baby 2 years ago with the hope of doing her up but finding the time was impossible. she came with no engine but just a 2.7 block with no pistons etc.so maybe you can all help me on that front... First question will a M20 E30 323i or 325I M20 go straight in with no mods etc??
Here she is from the front,
Her rear end
Right, we have started the restoration from the boot moving forward once each section is complete.
The boot is the worst place for rust so we have just cut out the areas where the rust went or was about to go through.
After the holes were cut out etc we started grinding down the whole boot with rust removal discs... and guess what... we uneathered some previous repairs! DOH! bad work!
I took the executive decision not to cut out the previous repair as it is solid. Finish grinding...
More to follow soon but advice on the engine would be great.
