much thanks to everybody, this site has been a tremendous source of information!

Welcome. We are at least one E3 owner short here. How about some pictures?

it was discussed here previously and linked https://barnfinds.com/bf-auction-1972-bmw-bavaria/

my brother found it on c'list while on the hunt for a project so we scooped it up. here's what it looks like currently:

no great shakes. it's got some bonks and bruises, but nothing obscene. very very very little rust, and what is there is basic inconsequential stuff. but it's fairly complete albeit in exploded view. a great blank canvas for questionable automotive life choices.

Love the impulsive project pick up!

Right, our lives are filled with, "questionable automotive life choices." Note the order, "automotive" choices precedes "life" choices. As it should be.

And we'll be expecting a thread in the Restoration forum.
