Now this is what I’m talking about. From repairing a focus in a car park to doing a collab with a famous you tuber THAT is what you call a well deserved achievement. You kept it moving from day one and the hard graft has paid off. Well done bro, you worked for it and where you are now is well deserved. As you know I’ve been subbed from day one and can vouch for your achievement. Keep it moving, things can only get better 👌🏾👍🏾👊🏾

Loving the workmanship in this video. I've seen a few front end M2 conversions done on M140's but I had no idea that the F-Series chassis was so interchangeable with parts. I'll be following this build and your work as it looks spot on.

I have seen people have difficulty with the width of the M2 part, but i think you already sussed this issue with those brackets under the wings!

Exactly! Hence why i made a thing to show it. I always try to show the method behind the madness.

Curious. Ricky said this build is cheaper than just buying the actual thing. However, the doner car surely adds to that unless it's a right off....

Im confused. Why are you taking a pre face 114 and changing it to just a 140i. Why not just buy a 140i and put the m2 stuff on that? Im confused?

[@vollcare4076]

M140i is like 20k used, 114i maybe 4k

[@NickthaGeek]

@vollcare4076 lol. No. They arent 20k. They can be found with high mileage for around 12k now. He is literally chopping it up and putting rear qtrs on and front end so its not as though he needed a mint one. Building an engine too so mileage wouldnt of mattered. Would of been easier to find a damaged one or one with a blown engine or something. The labour hours would eat into unnecessary money and ultimately no matter what it turns out as at the end of the build. It will bever be worth anything because of what it was on the log book. Just seems like a very backwards way of doing something.

[@vollcare4076]

@@NickthaGeek if you do it by yourself (don’t pay the Labour), it will be cheaper to by a 114i most likely. But for sure, if you have to pay the entire Labour for the 114i to M140i drivetrain swap it might be more expensive starting with the 114i
