I've got a compressor and an impact wrench. Made short work of them.

No, not a sport - just a 325i. However, there was some badge on the back for a conversion company - I forget the name. It looks as if the diff ratio is 1:3.94, rather than 3.91

A can of plus gas and some heft behind my breaker bar got the half shafts seperated from the diff tonight, so I can have at it with the angle grinder and wire brush sometime later this week. Not even the impact wrench would move them! Thank god for expensive penetrating fluid...

It's all go, this kitcar building lark.
