another one going on the road
Discussion
thought this would be of interest, got an early 350i been stood for many years going to recommission it ,first task unstick the seized and stuck clutch so engine and box out then split, this took best part of 2 hours as the first motion shaft was seized very firmly in the driven plate but all apart now, clean up and rebuild next including engine bay needs a bit of a refresh.
