If it was a winning bid, you could do whatever you like with it, I'd even take pictures. You haven't quite hit reserve yet though:)

I appreciate you outbidding Orange45, I really would rather he didn't get the opportunity to crush it:)

I think this Brooke wants it. I bid and she outbid me right away. I can't go too high as I'd have to fly out and drive it home, Hmmm! wonder if that could correspond with Land Cruiser Round Up?

TTT.. Hey Chef.. When you ship that 45LV home do you mind if the rest of Tornado Alley packes stuff in it and gets free shipping as well? :p
I gots some stuff in Cali I need shipped home! Course if you want to pack up the Dodge Cummings and go retreive I'm your copilot! Will it do the con before we come back tho?

And.. Someone buy that thing so the 45lv has a garage space!

It is really pimp.. :D

The auction ends several days before the roundup. If you want it, fly to the roundup, ride back with me, and drive it home. Offer stands for anyone...

Tornadoalley, I'll help if I can...

That V12 would drop in there with no problem. I believe you might have to swap the tranny too. Plenty of room in the body. The 4.0 V8 is an awesome conversion for a 3 series.

It will drop right in, no problem, though I believe you'll want the auto that goes with it. You can buy whole v/12 cars for less than that here...

the V12 might fit in there fine, just try to find everything you need to install it, including the pair of ECMs(DME's in BMW speak)wiring, crazy intake manifold stuff etc. A "New" engine from BMW is $26k, and even the factory service literature actually has the spark plug firing order wrong, so you can tell how much BMW cares about thoses engines now...Dealers cant get parts efficiently at all, they need to come from Germany, and dealers wont even work on them, so you would have to go to an independant service location...
