Hi everyone thought i would show my 76 clubman build up with a suzuki engine i have owned the car since 1998 it cost me $1800 and came with disc front and a tired 998. A year later i decided to rebuild, got hold of a mk2 cooper s engine and droped that in. All was good for a few years then i brought a house and stored it away for a couple of more years till 2007 i decided to restore from ground up and then i thought what about an engine transplant. so heres some pictures from start to what i have done to this date doesn't seem like much but i don't get much time anymore. so enjoy and i'll try to keep it updated.









once the rust had been removed and repaired i started on the subframe, but first i brought a half cut and and some goodies like big brakes,roll cage and a new mig welder.
the subframe is still not complete i need to put the tabs on to hold the brake lines and weld it up fully. also i need to figure out what radiator to use yet can anyone help out on that? here a few more pictures






thanks Dave

Looks good. With the radiator, either go to the local wreckers and search for something that will fit behind the grill or where the std Suzuki or mini rad sat. The other option is get one custom made by a radiator shop.

This is what i've just bought for my 4EFTE conversion. It measures approx. 450mm high by 370mm wide and around 50mm thick...

Answer the Question....
BUT always Question the Answer

Had a bit of time to do a bit more this weekend i made a bracket for the vh40 and brought a set of s/hand extractors and made up the drivers side axle. The axle is welded only to get the length i will be getting proper ones made up at a later date. So heres a few more photos of my progress and my new welder. Think i'll get a custom radiaitor made up later down the track.
