Thanks to SoCalVintagebmw for posting pics in Facebook of the 1600ti Voll Cabrio by Baur that joined their drive today.  It is reported to be one of only 3 in the world!

We know this Baur from previous sightings and write-ups, including this one:

It is a Small Baur World!

02Les,

 

Several folks, including Dirk, have about the VIN for this car.  Do you have anything about it in your files?

Thanks!

Tom,

 

Do not have any info on this one.

Didn't know there were any "factory Baur" 1600ti Cabrios

FWIW:  here is a comment from the owner in a Car Crush article:

BMW 1600 ti Cabriolet (1969), owned by Potor Cordos: "I’ve had it for about 20 years, and found it in Germany between Cologne and Bonn. I kept the car in Germany before bringing it to the States about two years ago, and have done a fair amount of work on the body, but the motor is original and so is the interior – except for the seats that I replaced a few years ago."

 

"the motor is original."
