It surely is almost perfect is, but one can extend tool trivia also to this bmw.
Appearently, the correct tools should have 'Hazet' written on them and not 'HAzet' as the company changed the logo in 1965.

These are a lot of work to restore. I restored the chassis number 70201 (4 less than this one's chassis number). The worst is working with the wooded frame that the soft top is nailed to through the aluminum skin of the car.

Thst's cool. Maybe restoring them is more rare then driving one?

Me too. Why buy a vintage BMW without red-handled screwdrivers???

"E9er" commented on BaT about how he liked the color. I'll bet 1957 "Silver blue" became "Fjord" on 1970's BMW's....

According to the Hagerty valuation guide, that sale price was a bargain if that car really is as nice as it looks.
