I have decided to sell the X5 in its current state as I just don't have the time to complete this project. Engine was completely gone through as detailed in this thread and I got plenty of other new parts, like engine mounts, CV boots, etc still sitting in boxes.

Also got a rebuilt torque converter still in the box from Eriksson, specifically for the 4.6is.

I'm currently working on re-installing the sub-frame so that it can roll on it own wheels and be rolled into a trailer or flatbed.

Here's where it has been sitting for the last 8 years, give or take:



I'll throw in various tools that I purchased for this project, such as this:



Once I get it assembled, I'll get it washed up.

Front clip back on:



I have no idea what to ask price wise. Any thoughts?

Hate to see it go, but with everything else I have going on, I just realize I'll never have time to complete this project. Hate to see it go, but hopefully someone will be able to see the project through.
why don't you just hire a mobile mechanic to re-assemble the truck ? have him work on a flat rate for the entire job.

if you don't have time, but you have the means, by far that is a solution to get it back to an enjoyable driver again.

i'm just the opposite when it comes to my X5 4.6. i have the time, but not the means.
