Calling all E10 Baurs: Cabrios, Voll Cabriolets and Targas!

[ttown]

I found an E30 Baur I am set to pick up next week.. It is in ok condition but not really my thing so I will likely sell it.  Any interest out there for e30 baurs?

An E30 Baur was just added to one of the largest Museum car collections in the US..... and it is Tacoma WA.

The Baur as an historical artifact:

There may be some interest.  We know of about 1/2 dozen or more Baur owners (of various types) in the PNW.  If you'd like, send me some pics and details on it.  I will post it in my Baurspotting blog.  Free, of course.  There appears to be an awakening interest in Baurs, and this is a good time of year to get the word out.     Send whatever you want to me here, happy to help if I can:  tom82baur@gmail.com

Tomscat1, yes that's the one that sold yesterday in Seattle.

No idea who bought it. Anyone here?

Bingo!  Small Baur World strikes again!    Paul S. spotted that at a show last summer in Issaquah, WA, but we were never able to locate the owner, unfortunately.  He is bound to show up somewhere, sooner or later..... I hope!    Thanks for the update!

Thank you, Paul.  Could not do this without your help!

 

It turns out that we do have a little history on that Targa..... it came from 2002 Haus in san Luis Obispo, CA!

Here is a 2002 Cabrio Targa in The Netherlands.  Pics were posted by the owner, Jeffrey K., in Facebook today.

And the onslaught continues.  We may yet find all of them, with this kind of help!

Paris! Cool!

I like the car, but I just noticed the hood looks like it's unlatched.

Careful!

One just sold, got bought in Seattle, Golf Yellow, $16K. It was on CL for a day, and removed. Didn't even have time to post here.

Hopefully the new owner will share pix with us.

Ho Paul,

 

Thanks to Rob T at 2002 Haus, we have an update to the updated update on this Golf Yellow Baur Targa:  to wit...... the missing craigs list ad!  Thanks, Rob!

Does anyone know this car?  We'd like to 'bring him in from the cold' to our Baur community.    It was sold in the Seattle/PNW area last week in an exchange between an unknown buyer and an unknown seller.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Guess what resurfaced on ebay but two weeks later at more than double the price...

Wow, thanks for posting, roadhog0!  

We are all over this in Baurspotting!     We now have 4 or 5 posts about it, since first spotting it last June 2013, thanks to Paul S..
