Re: Rear Windshield Swap

The owner of Circle Tire Michel Potheau and his wife Margot closed Circle Tire and relocated to Key West around twenty? years ago. He kept in touch with his former customers by newsletter for some time after closing. While serving as President of the BMW CCA he passed on January 6 2003. He was a founding father of the organization and was member #2.
He supplied many reasonable priced parts for vintage BMW's but strangely never sold a tire. I have one of his exhaust systems installed on my cs that I put on in 1986 and is still solid today. I remember the system complete was around $170!
Their is a vendor Performance Auto in Glastonbury CT that had Bosal exhaust parts listed on their web page at decent prices YMMV.

All of the mechanical parts for the restoration of my 2002 and 3.0CS came from Circle Tire. I bought a NOS right rear view mirror at one of Michel's yard sales for $8. He could even get parts for my gray market 323i. Great parts and service. Too bad he is no longer with us. Margo-Fests were always interesting.
