    Vintage Autobahn

    I have had the same experiences with Connor as has Andrew. Seems like a genuine enthusiast and a stand-up guy.

    WTB. BMW Heyco Yellow Handle Screwdriver.

    I have the original tool roll & tools in my tii. Screwdriver has a gray handle and shaft reverses from slotted to phillips head. Nothing yellow in sight.

    Favorite BMW model according to people working for the company

    As the racing people say, "There's horses for courses." If you want tear up the back woods mountain roads, my tii will run circles around my (and your) coupe. If you want to take a long-distance ride (especially in the company of your significant other), or you want to impress the local...

    WTB: console wiper speed switch and wiper relay

    Hi all! Drove my '73 tii to, at, and back from the Vintage, mostly in the rain (sigh). When the rain was on-and-off and I kept switching the wipers on and off, we started taking a pool as to whether the wiper motor or the switch would burn out first. Dodged the bullet this time, but I have...

    Caveat emptor

    Hey Dave, I'd like one for my spare. We're now half-way to buying & splitting up a set.

    Staying safe on craigslist

    Hi all! Selling a 2006 530xiT. Put an ad on craigslist. A guy emailed me pretty quickly and asked for the VIN in order to run a Carfax check. Sounds reasonable but, as craigslist is renown for internet scammers, I'm a tad suspicious. Is there a compelling reason not to provide the VIN...

    Looking for knurled bolts

    Got'em, sort of... Update on my search. Knurled bolts: 1. are NLA from BMW, 2. no one on this board had extras, 3. Karl Nelson didn't have them either, 4. nor did Peter at CoupeKing, 5. nor did Dan at coupeguy. So... I paid Walloth & Nesch an arm & a leg for a set plus loan...

    Looking for knurled bolts

    I have managed to lose a set of the knurled bolts (part # 63121811910 on Real OEM diagram 63/4) that hold down the plate that covers the headlight access hole. I need three of them. Anyone have any extras they can spare? Will gladly pay whatever the going rate is. Thanks, Larry

    anyone near Philidelphia ?

    Berwick vs Philadelphia Hi from the other side of the pond, Berwick really isn't very close to Philadelphia. (I assume you do mean Berwick and not Berwyn, which is a real Philly suburb) Berwick is a good 2-3 high speed hours away on the turnpike. You're closer to Scranton and Wilkes-Barre...

    Make of it what you will

    Seriously??? This seller is the poster child for blind optimism. Forget the coupe for a minute. He's asking $45 large for a big bumper tii while presenting 4 nondescript exterior pics of a car he didn't even bother to wash. Has marijuana been legalized in Nevada?

    Blue Devils' seatbelts - simply amazing!

    Yup. They bolt right into the same holes. You will need to discuss you car's specific configuration with Al, but he gets it. Took me 15 minutes to install both sides. Includes all washers and bolts. Can't beat it! I fecall the price was around $225 for both driver and passenger sets, but...

    1972 3.0 In Scottsdale

    had a look Was invited to an open house at Brighton Motors while in Scottsdale last week for the auctions. They specialize in Lotus, and I did not discover the coupe until I had several drinks, as it was parked out on the street rather than in the lot with Colin Chapman's favored children...

    The Vintage in Asheville, NC May 20-22

    Painful idea The Blue Ridge Parkway sounds romantic and fun but it's really agony in a driver's car. The legal speed limit never exceeds 35 mph. Even if you're willing to break the law, the lack of any straightaways (i.e. you can never see more than about 200 feet ahead), combined with a...

    1973 CSL Bonhams Scottsdale 1/28/16

    Watched it drive up on the stage and sell for $305,000. It was a sight to behold. BEAUTIFUL!

    What's different about a Swedish engine?

    Hey Al, I'd be happy to take a look at the car for you. After this week's "storm of the century" however. Let me know where it is and we'll proceed from there.

    What's different about a Swedish engine?

    Hi all! Updating the results of my plea for engine replacement help earlier this week. First I want to thank everyone who provided advice and help, especially HB Chris who offered me an amazingly generous deal on his extra engine. Thank you all! While I did not hit the Powerball lottery...
