I am hoping to have back on track in the spring.
Rob the e28 rear adds 30mm to each side so going from et18 to e36 spec et47 get the wheels under the arches, the arch's are rolled. On the front i have widened the track to suit by moving the tca pickups, but as I am using 17's i can get away with the high offset, using e12 hubs on the front means you still need the low offset 5x120 rim so spacers would work better on the front

Arches are 50/50 at the moment tempted to use the group2 and stick some staggerd style 5's 8/9x17 et20 which should fill it nice or use the 2002 turbo arch's with e36 328 split rims. Maybe I should have a vote
The down side is there is no way my 300mm brake kit can fit as the disk bells are to small to go over the 5x120 hubs, so thats £2k's woth of brake mods to be redone.

lovely work Jason
is that an escort tension strut kit, or something youve made up yourself. curious whether the tca bush insert is the same as an escort/capri.
what gearbox will you be using with the engine at e21/e30 angle? e36 box with modded linkage?

The engine is at the e21/e30 with a e30 m3 gearbox and e28 525e bellhousing
There are a few MK 2 escort parts bits the front, and tca bush is turned to fit the e21 tca and the clevis joint from the escort tension strut

Small update
Mockup of the front arches and rims
Other small things single wiper mod done, and the only sump that will fit is a modified e34.
