Not a big deal but you may want to edit header to reflect that the CSL is a '73.
Interior lights
There seem to be quite a bit of confusion about the CSL interior light set up, so here is the rule:
early carbs, rallye light in the glove box, no light in the headliner
late carbs, rallye light on the dash, no light in the headliner
2275 series, rallye light on the dash, no light in the headliner
2275 series with citypack and 2285 series, no rallye light, headliner light on the DRIVER´S side
4355 series, no rallye light, headliner light on the driver´s side (left)
If your car has a different set up, it has been modified at some point.

Markos, so I know this car fairly well. It's a great survivor car. Rey Rivera is the Owner (REYN SPEED SHOP). I asked him if ok to post that on here for the members and he gave me his blessing. The doors are steel and he said to get with Bill, the consigner, for initial questions (Contact Seller Button). If Bill he can't answer them, Rey will inform Bill of the proper response. Bill is an awesome guy and very knowledgeable on almost everything vintage BMW etc. A car guy through and through and very classy guy...I would like to let my CSL ignorance flourish and ask a few questions. This car is fascinating. It has a lot of originality in the interior and underside. It is the 15th 2275 car but in city pack-esc form. Still has manual windows, and a trunk prop. Still has original hood pins. I can’t tell if the doors are steel, not recalling if the upper rivets on an aluminum door clear the rubber seals. Has a dome light.
Did BMW make city packs this early or did this car get bumper treatment later?

My personal take... I always wanted to buy this from Rey if he ever sold, but being that it is on BaT, I am out of the picture price wise. It's a super cool car with a BMW history of previous owners most a lot of you know or heard of in our tight knit community. I'll leave it at that. Super cool color INHO for a CSL. Bid with confidence...
Yes, for those into details…..Aren't these motors 3003 cc? Or, supposed to be?
