E9 just bought

[jussjazz]

Hi fellow members just bought my first. E9 3.0csi (U.K.) looking for advice and help .The car had sat idle in a garage for 20years !!
Have pulled the fuel tank and interior out and the wiring doesn't look too healthy
Any advise where I can pick up a fuel tank or get it repaired

Welcome. Given a new csi tank will be in the order of 1,000 euros, hopefully can be cleaned /repaired locally as required . Suggest you look at a sealing "kit" for the inside of the tank too . All the seals /filters for the tank are available from Walloth & Nesch in Germany although maybe check with local BMW dealers first to avoid shipping cost. Cheers, Simon

Greetings,

Nice project, I believe someone on this forum has different types of e9 tanks for sale: (Scandinavian country)

Do a forum search in the classifieds section.

Cheers,

Mo

Mo, that is probably me you are referring to, I have one early and one later-style CSI tank for sale. However I would recommend using a "sealing kit" for both tanks just to be totally sure.

If interested you can start a conversation, I'm not looking to get every last cent out of them, and my better half sure would be happy to get them out of the way

And it looks like you found a nice project! We all would appreciate if you created a build thread in the project&restoration section.

Cheers,
Robert

The front of mine looked like that for quite a while. Eventually I painted the fenders.

Make contact with John Castle who runs the UK CS Register. John writes a monthly newstletter packed with invaluable information for coupe owners. Do also register your car and VIN with him.
Jaymic in the UK or Walloth & Nesch in Germant for parts - or your local BMW dealer. In London i use BMW Holland Park, who are a great help.

Robert,

You were offering a fair deal for owners in EU.

Best of luck with your project coupe & sale of parts
