    '79 Alpina B6 on BAT

    This will be a fun watch,

    Poor timing on this other guy. I dont know why BAT does this. Its not like E21 show up every week (or month for that matter).

    I know this car and here is 2 cents
    Interesting to see this B6 again. This was found by Chris P.in a warehouse and had no actual Calf. registration.
    But here it is with Ca. plates!
    BAT has the facts wrong both times it has been listed, Of course it is not a modified 323 engine, slight difference between a small block and big block 6.
    Looks like the underside has been smacked a few times and a Alpina diff cover looking that corroded and covered with grease, well not much energy has been put into this

    Looks like the description has been fixed already.

    It is interesting that it has California registration but no mention of a BAR sticker. Makes me wonder. The BAR sticker was prominently listed on the BaT auctions of both the Alpinas I bought. Curious......

    This was a good car. Missing the mufflers and correct seat but very difficult to find the b6’s this complete. I think these have been under valued for years. I predicted 50-60k range but I knew two big hitters who wanted the car so it went for big money. Glad to see it as these special e21’s have always been my favorite.
