This car is in a strange orbit.

I am violating my own policy of not commenting on cars and I have no qualifications for commenting on the structure but, ????. Doesn't the lister see the Alpina connection which appears to be real? Obvious lack of effort/attention to details but you have to wonder when those seats made it into the car and the trunk specs as well. Maybe or maybe not Alpina spec'd this car a certain way. It certainly looks interesting and dare I say deserving of a thorough background check and a proper restoration?

I don't see the Alpina connection other than the intake? This one certainly isn't for CSL purists...
 
You're buying the serial number then would have to restore it to stock interior etc.
 
No black decal behind side grilles, black trunk torsion bars and stops on each wheel arch are missing, full toolkit in trunk, airfoil on both wipers, flag mirror, black wood, leather covered dash among others.
 
Interesting....

There are a few nits & tweaks for the future new steward to play with, but I'd be going down the rabbit hole of determining when the airbox and carbs appeared.

...and ASAP, returning the wood to.....wood! ;-)
 
Look at the first owner. Someone must know the story with this car.
 
There was a price listed when first posted awhile back... mid 200's I think?
