Watch: Stefan Kotzé begins K24 E36 transplant series, building a street-legal track toy

Local content creator and automotive enthusiast Stefan Kotzé has released the first episode of his Project 324K build, which will see a Honda K24 lump find a home in a BMW E36.

An uncommon build in South Africa, Stefan Kotzé has commenced a video series that will see him transplant a K24 motor in a semi-built but rotten E36 chassis, into an accident-free and rust-free model.

Partnering up with RAPiD, the video shows both of the cars and the motor, which will find itself in the final E36 project. Speaking of which, Kotzé plans for it to be a street-legal track toy, which can be used on weekends. Unlike most Dolphin body shapes with the M50B25 straight-six engine underneath, run by enthusiasts, this screaming Japanese four-pot will likely leave many bystanders bewildered.

He will be documenting this process through weekly video updates until the build is completed.
