A hearty 'thank you' to Amir K. once again for sharing these great pics of the SoCal Vintage Show held on October 29, 2011 at Woodley Park, Van Nuys CA. Our current information is that there were three Baurs present on the field for the event: 1 E21 TC1 Baur (Koko's beautiful red 323i Baur #3527); 1 E30 TC2 (also red below); and 1 2002tii Baur Targa (green, with RHD).
E30 TC2 Widebody Baur. We have seen pics of this Baur previously. Jeff (alaskabimmer) sent us some from a previous year's Bimmerfest. Note the different Baur plate on the window pillar: TC BAUR vs BAUR on the TC1.
This is the TC1 Baur... compare the roll bar in the TC1 with the roll bar in the TC2 above. You can see the attachment is slightly different.
These are all great examples of their respective Baur series, and we are thrilled to see them. We would love to see more, of course, but.... all in due course. Maybe next time Amir will have his Baur on the road, and we look forward to that day! Thanks again, Amir!
I have more pics of these posted here:

Speaking of that 1975 2002tii Targa, look what I just found! Here it is again!
http://www.barnfinds.com/summer-fun-...002-baur-targa
BMW 2002's are a fairly common sight, but when was the last time you saw one of these? This 1975 BMW 2002 Baur Targa is one of 1,973 produced and although it has some flaws it could make for a fun summer driver. Find it here on eBay in Los Gatos California with bidding at $50 and the reserve unmet.
This 2002 was updated to tii specification, which basically means that they added fuel injection. If it was done correctly this could be a welcome upgrade. It could be switched back to carbs though if needed. There are no photos of the engine included in the listing so it would be a good idea to request a few photos or take a look at the car in person.
The rest of the car looks very original with the exception of the steering wheel and rims. We like the looks of the minilite look rims and the M1 wheel does not look too out of place. We would probably want to stick a black Momo Prototipo on there and sell the M1 wheel.
The rear widow is foggy so the top will need to be repaired or replaced. We are not sure how hard these are to source and you may end just having to have someone make it from scratch.
Our biggest concern with this car is the rust the the rear shock towers. Luckily the seller is including new tower metal to make the repair. This car is a special model, so if you know what you are doing this car would be worth saving.
