KEY FACTS This early BMW 323i has been transformed into a potent custom road car, powered by a mighty Chevrolet V8.
Under the bonnet is a modified 6.0-litre ‘LS2’ V8, driving the rear wheels through a six-speed Tremec manual transmission and an R200 Torsen limited-slip differential.
The engine swap was performed professionally by Brintech Customs at Castlereagh.
The seller notes that the car was dynamometer-tested, which revealed outputs of 293kW and 493Nm of torque at the rear wheels.
The weight of the vehicle is reported as just 1250kg.
The odometer shows 2,818 km, but this is understood to be the mileage covered since the car was rebuilt.
