Look forward to see what this brings, being an unfinished replica...

Does it even run? W/o spark plug wires?

I see no driver's seat?

 

[shanon]

Neat.

Wonder what the full VIN is?

2205xxx?

Could go a number of directions, heavy lifting done?

With an early 1970 VIN, full cage, bat kit and strong motor with triples...

could have a lot of fun with this 'chameleon'.....

Like the original GI Joe dolls... ;-)

Man do I want that. Must be one of those new wireless ignitions *giggle* Would be so much fun to make street legal. Like Joe Rodrigues' 3.5CSL Tribute.

Neat.

2205xxx?

;-)

Last pic with the doc says 2210001, maybe for convenience as that would be the first euro 1971 3.0CS built? 2205xxx is in the 2800CS series so more likely and would be 1970.

"...a 1970."

Curious if VIN is near mine..

 

[shanon]

Answered my on question.
There are 4 for more digits to the vin.

Were about 2500 units apart...

 

[Bavman]

hmmm....

Lots of work to be done....

HP quoted, I doubt is achievable with single cam M30...

4.44 rear with 1 to 1 5th gear, set up for hill climbs?? Would be useless in the US.

Yes, will be interesting if it sells, I need to get into the e9 race car business...or could build replicas of the e3 "Cowvaria" race car. Photo of famous BMW race car getting crushed just for fun.
