    From just a couple of years ago, right after I installed the E30 Basketweaves.

    Thanks for the Beatles replies, I was hoping someone would do that! About half way up the car, all the way around it except for the nose and rear panels, is new metal. Some of it done well, other parts not so much. I am looking forward to retiring in a few years and start doing much needed mechanical work and some cosmetics I'd like to clean up. This is how it started its life with me in 1985.

    50 years ago today, my 1600 was assembled in Munich. Granada red, black interior, imported to Hoffman motors. Purchased by a professor at Cornell University and then sold to me in 1985. It was the first car I ever bought. (And is still my favorite car to drive!) After 2 rebuilds of the body and paint, it still looks (and drives), pretty good.

    Upstate NY, seen it a bunch of times! Guess they put the best car first in the ad!

    Wow! Nice Score! And I even like the color!

    This was the hit of the festival downtown. There was always a larger crowd around this than anything else.

    Thank you! All of the chrome an trim are original. The all aluminum grill was the distinguishing characteristic that would let you know that was a 1600 not a 2002. That's why I was a.little confused with the 1600 race.car posted earlier. To the best of my knowledge 1600 did not come with square tail lights (at least in the US) plus it had the 2002 grill.

    Thanks! I was unable to go sunday so I missed the race. There were other cool ones there as well.

    Is it actually a 1600?
  18. jscaptura1
    Sorry. Its a pre 74 grill. This is the interior.

    This was a little perplexing as it is badged a 1600 but has square taillights and a post 73 grill.

    It has a 6 cylinder transplant! Fun fun fun!

    Headed to the Glen this afternoon to watch the activities and parade laps of the vintage race cars through the streets! It is a great time and my son will be participating in the Glenkhana (a mini autoX) in our newly acquired E36/5 with an M52 transplant! I am hoping BMW will be the featured marque soon! Triumph this year and Alf Romeo next year. Maybe in 2021. I hope to post pictures as time allows.
