A friend bought this a few months ago.

Car had an M88 fitted in preference to the S14. It has been decided to take the car back to original and do a sympathetic restoration on it.

Harness showing its age.
Of all the things in a motor car working with wires is my absolute nemesis.

By the time I am finished with it there will only be 4 cylinders left :)

Took the engine out the only way that it can come out.....from underneath.

i don't speak BMW so I didn't realize you meant the engine :oops:

Quite a job pulling that out! Will the 4 come out the top?

The 4pot will easily drop in from the top.

It was originally a 2300cc however it has been bored to a 2500cc.
