Kevin You are correct - the new owner is sympathetic to its originality and will be doing almost as you mention with subtle clean up here and there, no doubt. The idea of taking an original piece - say a piece with paint overspill on - and clean it up and put it back, what a wonderful...

I really like it Vince - although I am a little biased :-) - as you say, it works with the Fjord really well, and it works with Chamonix as well in my humble opinion, it lengthens the car in a nice way Nicely done

and I do exactly that Arde :-)

School of life/hard knocks here :-) - no conventional schooling as such, besides when the truant officer visited Mum (ouch) I then appeared for a week or two, had a little fun and went back to work, which I loved. School was for sports and chasing girls, (wasnt it ) that part was ok in my...

Scott, I have to agree, that inner fire wall around the fuses is better than most of the shiny cars I get to see. Looks like the seller is being forthright here, actually refreshing to see Good luck on the sale @ScottE9Project

I believe that's 4355049, bought at the Amelia Island auctions RM Auctions in 2022. Showing just half of it, says a lot more than one might imagine :-)

Ben is very active on FB, you might ask him?

The pictures of the Broadspeed car are in this link - but this is not 2211342 as the link suggests. This is 2211342 - which is the Werks Olympic (Olympia) Rallye CSL,

I love the purity of the original and feel this is when it was historically important. But I know many will prefer how it is today and that's all fine as well

Hi Scott and Shane Yes car is one vin after the factory Rally CSL :) My car never went to Broadspeed, it seems it was bouncing around BMW internally, and then in April 1972 was turned into the Rally car. The mechanics involved in my car from Motorsport, have some fun stories from back in the...

A friend sent me this cranks post on ebay ;-) Hope everybody who attended Quail in 2023 got their poster .........you could be "rich" :-)...

I think it was Shakespeare who said "Methinks he doth protest too much” You are very obviously not a tolerant person and your political indoctrination and rants are not of interest to me on a car page. My children don't need protection from a Jaguar advert; they need protection from people...

I have to smile at all the "get off my grass" old people's comments on this post :) Yes, some of you may not be that old, but the comments.............come on guys Firstly, and most importantly, the marketing people for Jaguar must be over the moon with the "opportunities to view" you have all...

Hi JP The Hermetite car was sponsored by Hermetite for the 1976 season, and this is why you will see it with just Hermetite across the windscreen at Daytona 76, but still Motorsport colors. It then went back to Munich in March 76 and became the Hermetite car as you see above. For 1975, this...

Always fun to see my Hermetite CSL having many guest appearances in this. I don't know how many times I have watched this, but enjoyable every single time.

Guys, be careful of judging pictures or calling something not correct, without all the evidence. By the time you got to Batmobiles, and especially the second series, the idea of lightweight was very different from a Carb CSL. Firstly, you could have had one of the 57 second series, pink with...

These UFO CSLs still exist, one is run by a dear friend often in Europe and was in fact next to us at LMC last year, the other sits quietly in another friends garage and hasn't moved in anger for a very long while.

Guys, This car seems to have bounced around dealer to dealer over the last few years, if it has ever ended up in an end users hands, it doesn't seem anybody wanted it for long. It has also been in a couple of major auctions including RM I believe. There were 59 street cars made in blue ( I...

Guys We had a rush into our E9s and BAT became the chosen place for selling, we saw dealers who knew absolutely nothing about E9s buying and adding lipstick to some very average cars, look around the web, there are many with unrealistic prices still in dealers stock. E9s became the hottest...
