    WTB An Original Bavaria

    I'm going to answer this without really knowing but I'm 100 percent sure that Bavarias never ever came with with 2 tone door panels. :)

    “Single owner” 71 2800CS on BaT

    I've sold 4 cars on BaT and agree with every comment you make John, except one. This is just my opinion but paint thickness readings really only matter on a car claiming to have all original paint with no body work. Most e9s now have been repainted, having that as a 'best practice' with...

    Paint code for wheel arch skins

    That's the color I used. I believe I bought it locally at a Automotive/Boat Upholstery Supply store.

    Thoughts on exposing your Coupe to rain

    I think Barney is making a run for your 'the most driven Coupe' title. :)

    CocoMats Website

    I was on CocoMats website looking for some new mats for my e24 that I recently picked up. I was little surprised to see my coupe's interior featured under their Navy Checker Style section. Maybe they can give me some kind of discount on my new ones. :) https://cocomats.com/checker-mats/

    Thoughts on exposing your Coupe to rain

    My thoughts exactly! He's the reason I've probably only washed my coupe with actual water 3 or 4 times in 22 years.

    73 3.0 CS 4-Speed Now On BAT

    Something goofy going on with the wheels. They don't look like 16 inch BBS RSs to me, which would be RS006s. If they are real BBSs, they have been stepped up from 15s or maybe even 14s. The waffles look wrong too. I do really like the color of the car.

    1972 CSi on BaT (again) - Fjord car....

    First couple of pictures don't do it justice. I liked it more as I went through the pictures, usually the other way around.

    new product - black fender grille blind

    I made my own too. They are a must have. I light car with body color showing through the grills just looks silly.

    Coupe lost garage…how to treat rust areas now?

    Can you find somewhere to store it inside? People all over the Portland area rent out their extra garage space. My buddy has his M635 parked at the neighbors across the street because she does't need a three car garage and he's out of space. Maybe check FaceBook.

    4 speed Getrag box - UK based - any value?

    I kept my old 4 speed and driveshaft around after doing the 5 speed conversion years ago, even lugged it to our current house when we moved 9 years ago. Finally, after tripping over it again, I took it to the scrap yard a couple of years ago. Nobody wanted it and chances are extremely slim...

    Important “Firsts” for the E9 or E3?

    Does 'My first BMW' count? I bought it 22 years ago and have had 20 since. I just bought my 21st BMW a couple of days ago.

    Upholstery

    Last year, I checked into changing my interior over to burgundy leather - the quote was $12K. All the sudden, my dark blue leather looked better than ever.

    e9- 3.0CSI - Wood interior parts

    Looks like a great car event! I see a lot Chevys down by the water. A 53?, 55, 59, 60, 61, 62, 62, 63, 64, and a 67 - it would have been cool if they would have lined them up by year.

    Fixing that little rust spot...

    Love it Erik! Very nice job! I did a bunch of body work on my old tool box then shot it with SEM's Storm Grey, it turned out great. A year later, BMW did their run of new e9/3 toolboxes, I immediately started begging my wife to get one for my birthday or Christmas. Not sure if you can even...

    E24 Recaro seats for sale in the Bay Area

    I agree Scott but they are pretty rare, if I was looking for a pair - I would begrudgingly pay that.
