BMW 6 pot in a Birkin

Since I've seen some BMW engined builds discussed here recently I have been meaning to post these pics I took of a BMW 6 pot in a Birkin at a recent show I went to.

I can't answer any questions about the car but the pics may provide someone with some inspiration.

Cheers

looks good, looks like an older 6pot, i thought most were DOHC? that looks like its a SOHC, and on carbs, although they could have done tha after, most are injection,

Still looks like a very nice install

Really nice job, love the exhaust manifold, shame about the rusty expamet.





Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

Although it doesn't look like it in the pics, it was actually painted/coated black.
