    Another Fjord on BaT

    https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1973-bmw-3-0csi-38/ Money spent but those style lines are horrific.

    1973 Fjord 3.0CS on BaT

    A friend of mine, who has been looking for a coupe for a couple of years, was the successful bidder. He's getting the car for $75.5K, he's ecstatic. He's looked at several. After going through the pictures and seeing how crisp the style lines were on this car, I told him he should keep his...

    '70 E9 hot rod on Bat

    RNM at $164K. I'm surprised that it didn't sell for that. Great swap but a lot of little things that need to be addressed and the paint job looks pretty mediocre.

    Just Dashes

    I sent my dash pieces to Just Dashes close to 20 years ago, they came back looking new and they still look exactly the same -new. The dimensions seemed the same but I never measured before and after. I did the removal and reinstall myself and had no issues but my windshield was out for both...

    Renovating my garage. Any thoughts are appreciated.

    Hi Scott, My first comment would be, there must be a bunch of margin in selling clothing with hidden compartments. :) Second comment or question, where does your coupe go? Your garage pretty cool the way it is now. I would leave the garage doors for sure, they look perfect with the modern...

    BaT 1973 3.0CS, 'Light Blue' one

    No kidding, funny how the rust bubbles around the sunroof were not part of the original photo package. It doesn't look Fjord to me but I might have to see it in person to know for sure. Andrew, he just posted a picture of your car. This car will look exactly like your car - just add the front...

    4 speed or 5 speed?

    If you are looking at finishing a project e9 or having someone do it, you probably should go for the 5 speed. I wouldn't worry about the cost because you will be spending a truckload anyway. :) Anytime you hit the freeway, you will be glad you did. Your car will be that much more desirable if...

    Finishing School for a Fjord 3.0 CS / 100 projects to improve a Coupe / Countdown

    Once, I set up a whole work station in our living room so I could watch the Super Bowl with my wife while I put my newly redone BBS RSs back together. I believe it was 32 bolts per wheel and each had to be correctly torqued, my goal was to complete a wheel a quarter.

    What Airlines do you Avoid and Why?

    Similar for me, I traveled a lot for work between 2003-2017, luckily it calmed down. I just got a small promotion and will be traveling a little more but mainly the West Coast. I will fly Alaska as much as possible, the only airline I have any confidence in.

    In case anyone is interested watching for the entertainment value or wanting to add to the stable...

    Yeah, it did sting a bit - College buddy, so neither of us hold to much back if we think the other deserves it. He was right, it was kind of a stodgy car for someone in their mid 30s. :) The coupe was perfect for my 38 year old self when I bought it, still perfect even now at 59.

    In case anyone is interested watching for the entertainment value or wanting to add to the stable...

    I finished a restoration on pagoda before buying my coupe. Actually, I couldn't find a good coupe and the 113 was on my list of cars I wanted to own. It was a good one, it had all the matching panel numbers, the correct factory spot welds under the hood, and the inner headlight body strikes...

    WTB - Autoplug Passenger Seat Belt

    Doing some projects to my coupe this spring. My passenger seat belt has been misbehaving for years. Does any one have a passenger Autoplug (see picture) that retracts correctly that you are willing to sell? I'd buy drivers and passengers if you need to sell as a pair. Thanks, Vince

    E 24 paint colors and codes

    Agree with your color choices Scott. Also, they look amazing in Fjord. That leading car looks really cool in Amazonite Green, and I don't love green cars.
