Original Service booklet

[bimmerboy73]

Was sorting through a bunch of old service records and came across this piece that I honestly forgot that I had. I wasn't the smartest guy when it came to valuing original parts, records, etc when I bought my coupe almost 29 years ago now. I am embarrassed to even say how many old good parts I tossed because they were, well .. old.

Glad I still have this though. Was wondering if anyone else out there has one. Very cool to have record of the original pre-delivery inspection date, noted as 2-26-73 and at 55 miles. Weatherford motors still exists, but at a different address.

Mileage recorded shows the car was well loved in its first 2 years of ownership, having been driven more than 50,000 miles. I just went over 5000 in 18 years...

I know that I have one that I assume is original to the car, but it looks like it was very wet at some point and I never wanted to try to open it.

I have mine also….& 50k is quite impressive considering the commitment behind the wheel —

Me too, mine clocked up 44k miles in the first three years, the second owner bought it at this point and kept it until he died, and only added another 40k.
