Hello to all,
I joined here because surprisingly, there are not many Forums in France concerning our beloved E9.
I recently bought a 1975 3.0 CSi from Belgium. Got it delivered home a few days ago, and I am still waiting for a good friend of mine who knows a good deal about old cars, to help me out with what seems to be a clutch problem. I can't shift in any speed, and the clutch pedal goes down half way. So we are going to start by changing the fluids, see what happens.
Except for that, the car seems to be in excellent shape. The engine starts and runs like a symphony, and I even drove it for a couple of miles when I first went to see it. I have the restauration photos, everything was dismounted, fixed up and mounted again.
So far I have no questions, and I hope I won't have any. As soon as I can drive it, I will comment anything useful to the group.
Fun fact: my first collector is a French car (well know in Europe), a Peugeot 504 coupe V6. I don't know if she felt something when I was about to buy the BMW, but she started to show her unhappiness : Electric problems, speedometer broke, and a few others. But everything fixed now. they share the same bedroom (my basement), and seem to get along pretty well now... (all men's dream...)
