BMW Stories main part .. my unfinished business! e12 BMW 520 [my car blog]
I can promise you, my dream is to blog about classic cars as i rebuild them :)
This is project I let go, because times must, and trust me –more will be found before long
Where to begin –She was found for sale accidentally online. I should have left her alone i couldn't. I did just get her, keep stored for some time, and if only I had all the time and resources to make her beautiful, howsoever other pressures of work and life made me decide to pass her on to a friend. Hopefully we will catch up with the restoration further on down the road .... for now, little story of how she came and went, plus a lot of photo to drool over classic lines.
Under the hood, the old school carburettor ...
We will see many original details under here. Old school engineering is so pretty
This won't be a multi-part post, that wil be saved for a special treat I have coming. Today I want to share only this car in this post.
Don't you think these strange (if you don't know engines) pics look atmospheric somehow? Something from a past ...
Something that could be made clean new and shiney again ... it is my dream to do so
Not to dispair! when i sold this car, i found many more ... ask me how!
above, fusebox would need replacing 100%
it was with heavy heart, i realised the car had to go to someone that could afford to restore, before it was too late. You will see soon, it has gone to a good place! and anytime i just have genuine time and effort actually, i could get another. Maybe soon!
interior, so BMW and you can even see the evolution in models today. a refined driving space!
neat touches include the wood topped shifter, and center console with clock (both in need of repair)
door details, check out the ashtrays!
more interior, now i want to sit inside ...let's look outside
surely a lot of work will be needed
on the way to a better place
for old time sakes!
this is the final delivery place ... very happy discovery, that now I know and only I! very exclusive, humble place for the old BMWs getting fixed up WOW WOW WOW!!!!
Now she is staying here almost 1 year. In an upcoming post, I will go find her and report back in a new BMW post! Living in Thailand, I have had good and bad times. This was in one of the good times, I decided to sell,but many people sent me new locations of more classic BMWs in Thailand. I very much hope to bring you more one day, and fix one up for myelf :)
The story isn't over, just parked for another day
