    upholstery and woodwork

    @bela22 does wood - He is in Europe (Bulgaria?). He did the wood in my Coupe. It was not inexpensive, but was very worthwhile. He does not visit here that often, but if you send him a PM, should answer.... hopefully. As to carpets and upholstery kits... Dunno @sfdon or others may be...

    A set of wheels on BaT... With an E9 history.... (In BC, Canada)

    I am not normally a fan of these wheels on E9's, but I must say that they do look good on your car. And they will once again. :)

    1973 Fjord 3.0CS on BaT

    Lots to like - yes. But a tremendous amount of info lacking in the auction as to ... just about everything. LOTS of ## spent (it seems) back in the 2013 timeframe and such, but ??? What was done? What is the current condition of .. well.. everything. Hope the seller chimes in with some detail.

    Recommendations for Parts?

    On a side note - For bulky or delicate items, I would recommend you consider your local BMW dealer. Several years ago - I lost one of the gutter trim pieces (the one that runs up and over the door and down the back of the rear side window). It is a made of soft aluminum and has a rather...

    71 2800cs on Copart- needs rear section

    Well, the current bid is $5,600. Will take a TON of work to bring back. But looks like a decent starting point for someone who has that kind of energy.

    Off-topic (?) blaupunkt thoughts

    Depending on the price - even if it doesn't work (or functions poorly), could be fun to keep in the garage or such.

    Exotics at RTC (Redmond, WA)

    The local CCA chapter sent out an email announcing the opening of the 2024 season for Exotics at RTC, so... I thought I'd take a look at how thing go there (it's been a while since I participated - and I think it is WAY more formal than it was when I did this 10 or 12 years ago). This is an...

    Renovating my garage. Any thoughts are appreciated.

    Thanks for showing the garage and your video. Looks like a great start to a nice space. I guess it all depends on what you want to do with what you have? Is it a place to hang out? Do 'work'? Clean the cars or store things...??? After seeing the video -not really sure. These spaces can...

    Coupes and Watches

    I tried for a while, but.... just didn't work for me.

    Coupes and Watches

    Yes - Interesting..... I used to be into watches. That was before I developed a ganglion cyst on the inside of my left wrist right where my watch band lays. Can't wear a watch any longer. Have a few nice watches that I used to wear - but... not anymore. (It's not my style to wear one on my...

    BaT 1973 3.0CS, 'Light Blue' one

    Looking at the new (added) pictures..... 'Light blemishes' in the finish are not good - the pics show there is growing corrosion under the finish. Those two spots are just the first to show. I bet in a year there are a several more. Been there, done that (and now fixed... ) 'Carb pic' -...

    BaT 1973 3.0CS, 'Light Blue' one

    I predict a RNM - Looks like the seller is not going to put any effort to provide any meaningful info (no pics of the usual locations, carb type and so on) In reviewing their selling history, with very few exceptions - all of their listing have been of modern cars and we all know buyers of these...

    BaT 1973 3.0CS, 'Light Blue' one

    I went ahead and poked at the seller (a bit) for some of the basic info that I would think folks would want to know. The seller has listed aver 400 cars on BaT, so - I am a bit disappointed that the description and presentation is a vague as it is....

    BaT 1973 3.0CS, 'Light Blue' one

    Here is another one. Looks like a nice driver quality. Front bumper delete (with addition of air dam). Rear bumper alignment is off (lateral segment seems horizontal, but the left wing is a bit rotated up IMO) Not much detail in listing nor pics showing many of the points of interest we'd want...

    these germans !

    That would be distracting to me if I had to pay attention at a meeting or something in there while having all that around... LOL

    Randy Noonenberg?BAT good taste

    This goes along with the phrasing widely used in BaT auction descriptions as 'reportedly driven by the little old lady from Pasadena'.... LOL That takes the liability off BaT and places it on the seller.
