    Avoided an Accident

    Barry, regarding Kris' question. I assume you had dash footage or something for the local police to be involved. Did they issue a ticket, or like most drivers these days did they issue her what she really needs, a life-timie suspension of her "driving privilidges"? My driving mode the last 10...

    Klunk Klunk

    @boonies, you are dead on correct. I am not far away from you in Bucks County. There is a beautiful state road (Rt. 32) that parallels the Wild and Senic(An official designation) Delaware River. One of the most beautiful river side drives in the country. But you need a Panzer Tank to traverse it...

    Transmission swap and engine compartment refresh Winter 2023-2024

    Lance, sounds like you need the tool of choice when I was a drag racer. A bigger hammer the the two you have been using. I probably would have burned down the garage by now. Oh, what if it is attached to the house. We share your frustration. Steve

    @jmackro, I never fully understood the symptoms either. They came and went in no particular pattern.

    Need 4-way Flasher Relay

    Thanks for saving me from myself Don, again. Today the turn signals flashed, cancelled and the dash light flashed until they cancelled. A rare event for this car. So as I told Rob, I will start to do the upgrade with the EL 13 and a new hazard switch. The only thing I can think of is the...

    Need 4-way Flasher Relay

    The 4-way flasher in my 72 Bavaria is not powering the turn signals. The flashers work so it is not a fuse issue. Looking for a working used one as a start point as the new ones are expen$ive. Last resort, BMW as I can return it if it does not fit. There seems to be quite a few variations on...

    The Art of racing in the rain movie

    The book was okay. The movie too Hallmark for me. I believe he puts chains on his e9 in the book. If so that is Vatican Level Sacrilegious.

    BMW E12

    To quote Dick above, "The following statement is not based on actual data...." My Bavaria and the four others I have owned(two parts cars in the herd)were/are the most beautiful sedan BMW ever built. They are emblematic(?) of the late 60s to mid -70s era BMWs. Flowing curves, simplier dashes...
