I cant just do one thing at a time!
-Tidying up the front bodywork.
-Got my hands on a complete 323i rear subframe which im refurbing the trailing arms for a rear disc conversion.
-Also got front and rear wilwood calipers to fit.
-Getting a aluminium radiator designed and built.
-Once all of that is done, its off to the garage for some welding to the front part of the sills, and an MOT.

nice car that mate.. swapping the beam is a right pain. it wont come off if the beam isnt exactly taken off straight downwards, if the beam tilts it gets stuck on the big bush.

who is making your rad? can you tell me more as i need one doin too.

I can get rads for £300. They're UK manufactured, high quality items too, not Chinese Kit-Kat wrapper.

Radiator arrived and test fitted today. So far so good, fitted spot on.

A good few hundred, but it looks the balls!

Radiator was made be AH Fabrications. I sent them the original, they new one is thicker so it has a slightly bigger capacity.
