Car isn't registered. I know what you are saying but the only Bronzit I know is Bronzit beige metallic, which is a champaign color, common in e28's.

e21's and e24's had a granatrot-like color, possibly granatrot though.

That 'granatrot' car is the one that was on the cover of Hemmings Sports and Exotics not too long ago, and there was an article about it in that magazine. Interesting story -, the current owners father owned a BMW dealership and sold it to the woman purchaser in '74. She barely drove it. After lots of persuasion, the current owner eventually got her to sell it back to him, and it is now a 'museum' piece with about 4500 miles on it.

Crevier BMW is now owned by Penske but Crevier Classics is a storage facility and showroom owned by Danny Crevier, the son. Lots of super neat vehicles there.

that is the grill that looked best!
It was up to the owner.
It's either a 74 or 75 Italian delivery

That might be the car by dad brought back from Holland to Boston sometime in the eighties. My sister sold it to someone in the SF Bay Area. Is it a '74 with a stick, beige cloth interior and manual windows? I think I have the Dutch license plates from that car.

After the laps at Laguna Seca and legends the owner decided to take the car in to get the paint done as best as the shop could do. That's the third paint job in 2 years. Paint can be a bitch......
The car showed nicely at legends however 4 flaws were found.

Bumping this one back to the top again... I cannot go for a $100K plus car but if you have a Tundra, Granatrot, Turkis or Sienabraun I am interested.

Non-sunroof and Automatic still preferred...
