I like that the guy gets to punch his girlfriend in the face everytime he parks it

[GunMetalGrey]

I'm hoping that's his child not his girlfriend...
Also, what is going on with that pic... it looks like two engines..

As much as I hate it + 1 respect. Without shitboxes like these. The clean ones wouldn't be worth as much.

Seems hard to use the trunk with the wire holding the exhaust up attached to the spoiler...

Well he says it just needs some cosmetic work to be in tip top shape.  I can only imagine what the interior looks like...

To continue shark week.  I did most of the work on this car.  Should be a good auction.  https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1979-bmw-633csi-3/

I would drive it across the country, everything that is crusty from age like fuel hoses, brake hoses, cooling system is all brand new.  And the engine was rebuilt less removing the rotating assembly so no oil leaks and perfect running.  The head is a later euro head with the more durable design of the cooling jacket.  The original one was cracked.

All of the modifications were done when it was new, the Alpina build sheet shows the options.  Pretty rare piece and I am excited to see what it goes for.

  @YoungCR  do you remember what that euro car was that the cylinder head came from?  I though Ben Finley got it from you.  It needed a euro head because of the L-jet distributor is different than the later style M30 distributor.

[YoungCR]

It came from the 1985 528i M30B28 I bought from @pointofdeparture. I donated the rest of.the car to the UW Platteville club and they opted to install a M30B35 instead. I haven't heard any details on the car since @bfinley left the college.

Was that car repainted? Door jams, Engine bay etc are black.

Edit. Car was resprayed. It was in an accident 15 years ago but has a clean wisconsin title.

Here is the vin. WBSCM9337XLC60945

Did't figure it would last long.

Laguna Seca Blue wasn't available on the clown shue till '01 in S54 cars and those are through the stratosphere since they only made 41 of them.

In Cosmos Schwartz its one of ~500 S52's, not pedestrian in its own right.  all the cool factor for half the price.

edit: even less then Half the price since EAG just paid $75k for a real LSB shue. wow.

Can someone please smack the original owner in the face please? I have never in my life seen a weirder and less appealing color combo.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1057588354687293

And then there's this one. Looks so nice with the alpina wheels, killer color combo.

Those are the most useless 'nice' car-for-sale pictures I've ever seen

I know, if he hadn't specifically mentioned that the car was blue, I never would've known. Not a single decent picture of the interior or anything, and I'm pretty sure the alpina reps are painted white? Still a cool car, but I'd be a bit wary of what the ad and pictures hide. I can't even tell if the panel gaps are decent.
