Hi
My 1973 Golf CSL is for sale as it gets almost no use (a quiet run around the block every couple of months) - I don't know what price to ask so if you're interested, can you please suggest a serious price.
The car has undergone a very serious rebuild, all sorts of transplants and a cosmetic makeover. The pictures show the story and the detailed quality of the work involved. Most of the work was finished by late 2013 but the car has had little use since then.

The main cosmetic difference to original is the lack of chrome wheel arches - I just don't like them on the golf colour, but I have a set that would need restoring before attaching (fenders are rolled). It was rebuilt as an excellent driver rather than as a concourse winner.
I brought the car prior to rebuilding in California and still have the CA plates. The car is located in New Zealand. Estimated freight to La is about USD1400, to Brisbane is about AUD2500, to UK about GBP1100.
Majority of the cars detail is below:
1973 BMW E9 3.0 CSL in Golf, Serial # 2285269.
- Manual front and electric rear windows
- Excellent chrome (NOS belt trim)
- Excellent dash wood etc.
- Scheel bucket seats
- 14” Alpina alloys with Michellin Pilot tyres
- Power steering (rebuilt).
- AC installed (134a)
- Aluminum doors, bonnet and boot/trunk
- New Carl Nelson springs
- La Jolla sway bar, strut bar and urethane bushings
- Rebuilt brakes (and boosters)
- High compression M30B35 3.5 liter engine upgraded to a Motronic 1.3 fuel injection system and 5 speed conversion (by La Jolla Independent).
- Michellin xxx spare tyre as new
-Full body restoration included “everything”. Major elements were:
- Rear restoration by La Jolla Independent (USA) and front by Vintage Auto Restoration Murray Sutton (NZ)
- All quarter panels (fenders) removed in restoration
- Rebuilt inner wheel arches
- Rebuilt A pillar structures
- Rebuilt door frames and new aluminum skins fitted
- Rebuilt front bulkhead
- Rebuilt floors
- Rebuilt fuel tank
- Rebuilt rockers with new rocker covers
- Many new rubber seals, trim, hoses, etc
- New stainless screws and bolts used where ever possible.
- New OEM windscreen
- New tool tray
- Original radio not connected as modern stereo installed in Dash/Glove box operate via bluetooth. 4 speakers.
Just ask for any specific pictures or any other detail.
My ph is +64 27 22 66 592.
Thank you.
