1949 Ford body swapped BMW - We cut the roof off (Episode 8)
Well, we've been wanting to get to this part for some time but the BMW roof is cut off! Had to take care of some other business first, like sort out some engine error codes on the car, remove the interior and remove the windows.
We are just getting started, both with this crazy SEMA project, as well as, this channel.
Please feel free to leave a comment too!
Thanks for watching!!
About Maniacs Garage and its creator:
My name is John. Over the past few decades I have built some pretty crazy rides and this one may be the craziest! After spending the last 15 years working on my Real Estate business, raising a family and help plant a start up church, I am ready to embark, along with my son and a group of friends, on a new project.
However, this is not just any old project, we are going to attempt the first ever 1949 Ford Shoebox chassis swap to a 2008 BMW 335i.
Keep in mind that we don't do this for a living and the budget is very limited.
Will we make the deadline for SEMA 2020? What kind of challenges will we run into along the way?

Ripping the BMW apart! - 49 Ford_BMW Chassis Swap
We hope you guys watch us as we rip the BMW apart.
We got the windshield out, but not how we wanted to. In any case, watch this to see how the interior and the windows came out of our BMW E92 335i. In the next video we are planning to cut the roof off of it. Make sure you subscribe and share this channel with as many people as you can.
Thank you!
p.s. Soon we will be getting on the 1949 Ford Shoebox to cut the body off the frame and get it ready to move over to the Bimmer.
