1974 e9 - Home stretch!

[Tomme9]

Just over 3 years into this 74 3.0cs resto.

Took 2-years just to find her but fortunate to find a two owner dry (zero rust) California/Texas car.

Here are the adds/upgrades:

- fresh Nachtblau paint
- all new window/door rubber
- e28 Getrag 5-speed manual transmission
- euro bumpers added
- e28 front window motor upgrades, rears pending.
- e24 front air dam
- complete tool kit
- rebuilt dual Webers
- refurbished Momo steering wheel
- currently at interior shop. White originally- but going with medium tan headliner/interior/carpet.

Looking for a few parts and she should be on the road in a month or so.

- Blower motor replacement (will check forums but any ideas on sourcing / aftermarket welcome)
- visor clips( *Plz see parts wanted)
- chrome seat bits
- Considering 16" Alpinas

All to say, a dream finally coming true.

Very nice! It's hard to tell from that small photo but that white interior appears to look quite good with the natchblau

Thank you. It is beautiful in white (original color) but plan to drive the wheels off her and not practical for me so I went with tan.

Very likely. Was shot on a cell phone. It’s darker and much less purple in person. Will post more when she’s back from interior.

Blower motor is available from bosch. Partnumber is on the forum somewhere. I think it was 45 or 80 usd/euro.
