My new 1800ti

[SamAdams]

My 1965 1800ti finally arrived today. It has been off the road since the early '90s. But the guy I got it from bought it from the original owner. Looks like it is pretty complete. Bristol over red. Still has the Solex carbs on it.

The BMW 1800 TI VIN 1410352 was manufactured on April 28th, 1965 and delivered on June 24th,1965 to the BMW importer Hoffman Motors Corp. in New York City. The original colour was Bristol, paint code 058.

Amazing; you'll have a bimmer museum before long! Good luck with your new toy, Sam.

VERY cool Sam, can't wait to talk with you about it in a few weeks!

Very cool! Bristol looks great with the oxblood/black interior. What are your plans?

[SamAdams]

Thanks guys. Tom, really looking forward to coming out to CA for the drive and finally getting to meet you.

Nick, I am hoping to get the car drivable first then deal with the body work and cosmetics later. The seller sent all the sheet metal needed for rust repair. I think it would be neat to drive it with some patina for a time.

great idea - enjoy it before deciding on any major off-road time.
