Hi All,
Im new to the forum. I have had my BMW e23 745i type 1 BBS for the past 4 years have had a bunch of things restored and currently looking for a E23 lover to possibly take it over from me since I do not have the space for it anymore.
Please view the following website for more information http://ww3.autoscout24.nl/classified...176?asrc=st|as or send me an e-mail at kelvin_kko@live.com
Many thanks in advance,
Best Rgds,
Kelvin

Just picked up #4. 9/83 Polaris Metallic. 118K, CA legal and perfectly rust free. Small dent in rear right corner is only damage of any substance. Shop owner needed it gone so I got it for the back registration fees. Needs an engine and a few other items. Lucky for me I have all that.
It will be a lot of fun when it's done.

(insert voice of Sir David Attenborough)
"A rare and hearty creature, the BMW 3rd members are known for their grouping tendencies. They can be found in small groups just about anywhere one might find large flat areas of asphalt especially if there are groupings of traffic cones. They can be found clustered and lounging about in beach side parking lots and oft times there is a gaggle of giddy onlookers thrilled to partake in their presence. Any number of things can bring a group of 3rd members out of their normally subdued existence. Sometimes its noise and thrill seeking and other times it's just coffee. If you keep an eye out during your day to day routine then you just might be lucky enough to spot one of these magnificent groupings."
