1973 CSL on Hemmings

yes this is 2285418. was for sale earlier in the year on BaT by Legendary Motorcar in Ontario. in 2024 Oldenzaal completed the LHD conversion. the car has a build date of 1-29-1973, was delivered in London 5-24-1973. i show that it was owned by D.B. Hodson in the UK in 1985 ... but no other records. i think the ask of 205k is a bit ambitious in this market

The inside scoop was that this car was purchased for roughly 250k from Oldenzaal. I think the chance of recovering more than 75% of that number is probably unlikely considering the current state of the less than perfect, accurate with provenance E9/CSL market.
 
I saw it at Oldenzaal in 2024 or 2023, and was suprised to see welding blobs along the fender seams, front to back where spotwelds were suposed to be..

If i had 300k euro to spare, i would have bought the all original cs they had in the shop. For 1/3 rd of the price, and walk.out feeling i bought the best car they had.
 
A Csl, regardless of price with fake/ after market fender arches is an indication of insufficient Csl knowledge……..
