Has this coupe been discussed?

Seems like a great deal and members here should know Tom. I am not posting details or other names to be respectful of the sale & or circumstances.

This is an interesting car to follow if the price is actually 20K -- seems like a solid project & wonder who knows more about it? Maybe there is already a new owner and he will share it here....

Presumably all the dirty work is done. I bought mine the same stage and thoroughly enjoyed skipping the bodywork. Should make for a nice one!

You can search Facebook profiles if that helps -- here is another screen shot --

It was discussed back in 2014 when Tom was looking for parts.

As I recall there may have been some issues with this car -- seems interesting it is for sale who knows exactly the true story or what/if a new owner has surfaced --

Caveat emptor! I was interested in this car when someone led me to info about fire damage, and the insurance company branding the title “salvaged”. Tom apparently went on the hunt for a vin plate and a title for a different car so he could “un-salvage” the car. I’d say be very careful not to get caught up in the fraud.

He was looking for US wiring and stuff so maybe he had two at the time.

Some discussion here. No answers only speculation and fuzzy memories.

Tom Colitt’s CSI

Hi All Read Rick Baker’s post on Tom Colitt with particular interest as I bought Tom’s 1974 CSI a couple of weeks ago and am trying to find out more about the car’s history. Some photos below. Does anyone remember his car? VIN is 2266135, will add it to the registry shortly. According to BMW...

This obviously looks too good to be true so sorry I posted. Seems a shame to have a coupe in this condition -- looks good but with a less than spectacular history --
