On eBay there's a Z4 that needs a bit of work. Anyone brave or mad enough to take it on?

This one needs a bit of work

I went to see it yesterday. A really genuine bloke. He has a 30s style open tourer with a boat tail, built from scratch himself with a spaceframe chassis and 325i running gear. All the body is polished aluminium, hand built on an English wheel by his own hand.
He also has several bikes and was in the process of fitting a completely rebuilt Bonneville engine into a Ducati frame.
His idea was to build a 60s Le Mans replica, from scratch, using the Z4 as a base, but a bodged hip op and prostate issues have convinced him to stop.
I can vouch for the fact that every single nut and bolt is there.
It would be a huge ask to put it all back together and with the quality of the interior its probably worth more in parts.
I was tempted but not a job for the open air and a gravel drive!
His daily is a 35i.

Hope you save it lads!
Nope. Not me, too busy working my way through a list of other cars needing help (about a dozen atm).Pondrew said:Mr Tidy said:Well spotted Andrew.
Manual 3.0Si will be bigwinns next project!
I have a feeling it is a 'joint venture'. :?
I will of course assist if needed. May be a few bits I can source?
