BMW's and Fords aren't all that much different, the BMW might have a few funny heads on some bolts but it is all just nuts and bolts.
I'm very blessed to live out in the county with plenty of space for a shop and no zoning requirements. I built a 30' x 40' shop with two rollup doors, a 30' workbench along the back wall and I have a two stage air compressor, four double-decker rollaround toolboxes and most recently, a quickjack. Love that thing.

I've still got a Bud Moore intake manifold for a Boss 302. I've been thinking for years about building a replica/tribute of the 1970 Trans-Am Mustangs that Bud campaigned. One of the iconic and most dominant racing cars of that era. I have about 75% of the parts I need.
