the best catch at Retro Classic Stuttgart was a 1977 Motorsport manual for E12 series converted to 633 engine. I remember that around 180 cars where manufactered. Very special cars not to be confused with 530 and 533i for some non european markets.

Glasurit folder with BMW paint samples from 1958 to 1978

Cool stuff for all those that think the fifties were in black and white like in the movies.

I see Verona and it seems to show how to mix Verona from four other colors.
