Hi guys, I have a bit of an oddball item for sale here in Melbourne, Australia.
I own an 1970 2800 E3 which was supplanted with the drivetrain from a 1972 3.0 CSL in the 70's when the CSL was wrecked due to a fire. The car was owned by a local BMW mechanic, and they turbocharged it in the late 70's/early 80's with the L-Jet system out of an E23 with 2002 Turbo low compression flat top pistons. A lot of work was carried out but they apparently never got the turbo system running too well, and barely drove it. So the car's been languishing in the shed behind the workshop since the early 1980s.
I've since bought another easier to restore E3 which I'm going to install an M30B35 into, so I don't really need this car anymore. But before selling the whole car complete, I've been told by a few BMW heads that someone with a RHD CSL might want the CSL mechanicals, or at least the engine considering the block has a RHD CSL engine number.
The car also has other parts from the same CSL: 4sp Getrag gearbox, suspension/brakes, 3.25 LSD.
The E3 itself is up for grabs too, if anyone wants the whole lot.
I have little idea what it's "worth" but I don't want crazy money for it. I'd be happy to remove the engine/other bits and palletise them for transport. Get in touch if you're interested.
