Hi everyone,
Lifelong BMW lover, and I finally picked up a coupe after many years of lusting after one.
My E9 was the one that was for sale in Berkeley Ca a few months back. It's a Sahara 2800CS that started life as an auto, and was swapped to a dogleg manual back in the 1990's.
It has some needs, some light rust to attend to (couple small bubbles here and there, spare tire well, etc), and will be a fun project that I've had a blast wrenching on for the last few months.
Cosmetically it needs some work under the hood (either triple DCOE 40's or a media blasted air cleaner), a deep cleaning on the other under hood bits, and the body work cleaned up on the left front from a hit back in the 1990's. She'll make a fun weekend driver and give me something to do for awhile.
Even though this is my first post, I want to thank this community for being great. I've been lurking, searching, and getting a repair path together based on this forum. Seems to be an excellent community of people.
