I want to provide some details and back story. I won this in a BaT auction in 2017. I discovered it needed significant work. I gave my mechanic a blank check and asked him to fix whatever was necessary. The repairs cost just about as much as the car itself. It was a blast to drive. In 2019 I thought it would be nice to give it a little more pep and turn it into something special. An engine from a 2002 was installed along with high performance pistons and new dual Weber carbs. The cylinder head clearances were adjusted to accommodate the pistons. As you can see from the attached maintenance records, the 2002 engine was pretty much completely rebuilt. All work was done by Northern Motorsports in Wilder VT. Anyone who lives in the Upper Valley of NH-VT can attest to their skill and quality of their work. \r\n\r\nShortly after the new engine was installed I moved to Arizona. The 320 stayed in VT. It was stored in my mechanics shop and never driven in bad weather or in the winter. He drive it on a regular basis and made sure it was started frequently during the winter. I\u2019m selling it for a couple of reasons; first I don\u2019t drive it enough and I want someone to appreciate and enjoy this car. Secondly, the two brothers who owned this shop passed away. One a couple of years ago and the other very unexpectedly about 6 months ago. They were my friends, I knew them for 35+ years. This car was s labor of love amongst the 3 of us but as with all things, it\u2019s time to move on.\r\n\r\nSome details: copies of maintenance records for everything I\u2019ve done are included in the pictures; the tach cable isn\u2019t connected to the engine; I don\u2019t have the miles on the 2002 engine but it was essentially completely rebuilt. I\u2019ll be checking this auction at least once s day, probably more and I will respond to all questions. My aim is transparency and honesty; I want the next owner to be able to drive it off without having to put a lot of maintenance into it. If I don\u2019t know the answer to a question I will say so.

I has a 78 320is through European delivery that was a blast as I turbo charged it along with a full suspension package. In early 80 I was giving rides at Laguna Seca for BMW on a model release/press day. It was turning times with four people and AC on that would put it on the second row of a B sedan race. Just reminiscing but my question is I live on an island in Washington state. If I was to win the sale in your estimation would it be reliable enough for me to fly and drive it home?
