It's time!!

Good day all!!!

Well, I pulled the trigger on the purchase of the project vehicle... I technically don't own it yet... I pick it up tomorrow... I have to do some digging into what is wrong with it... I'll worry about that later... Here is the initial pictures sitting in from of the PO house... And bonus is that it has the original trailer hitch... I was thinking about pulling it and duplicating it to exact standards with very tight tolerances, if possible... For those that wouldn't mind having one... I'll work on that after the swap if there are some interested... Anyway...

So, I was going to go with the run of the mill version 4.4L... I figured it would be the easiest to match up with the E39 set-up... BUT, I found an Imola Red 4.6is that needed trans work (I think)... Perfect... I'll take more pictures when I get it home tomorrow...









The GOOD stuff!!!



The BAD stuff... I will take this off after I get it home to see the extent of the damage...



That is all for now!! MORE TO COME!!

Cheers!! And Happy New Year everyone!!!
