I saw the racehead engineering kit, and love the look. I was also considering hiding it all behind Jenvey classic ITB's, with open trumpets or an Alpina plenum. Some sort of standalone engine management. AEM, Haltech, ECUmasters, whatever the tuner likes for ITB's. Getting the...

No turbo for this build, I have plenty of cars to actually go fast. This is going to be a more "mild" build by my standards. Mostly about achieving the glorious ITB and long tube header sounds these cars can make. The Wilwood brakes will have a factory like pedal feel, and there are plenty...

Patiently awaiting parts so I can put it on the ground floor and rip it apart. I stayed up late last night and kept ordering parts, but still cant decide between fuel injection and ITB's or triple Weber 45's. I am leaning more to the fuel injection and ITB routes, and possibly an engine...

Well after seeing that Bavaria sale on bring a trailer, and thinking about how much nicer my car is in it's current state, I figured the car deserved an upgrade. I just did a $7400 parts haul for the Bavaria. - Wilwood front and rear 4 piston calipers 300mm vented rotors wheel bearings...

All this sale did was justify a $7k parts haul for mine. Look for Coil overs, bushings, big brakes all around, CSL long tube exhaust manifold, and tons of other goodies on my 72 later this summer...

I feel good about this sale. My car looks to be as nice, this is where I feel the car should be priced based on looks/rarity/driving experience vs. the classic car market.

I am either going to add a Magnaflow resonator, or a Vibrant. I like both brands, and have had good experiences with both. As far as the brakes go, for $1100 including new hubs, rotors, stainless lines, calipers, rotors, etc the Ireland Engineering big brake kit seems like a no brainer to...

This is what I am assuming as well. We will see when I pull it apart

Here is a picture of the current exhaust after I replaced it. Drove it today, and the car pulls hard to the left when I step on the brakes. Gonna pull the brakes apart, but most likely upgrade to a Wilwood setup. Also going to start thinking about coilovers. Probably going to fab up...

I really want these wheels, but realistically can't spend the money as I have a bunch of other cars I'm working on right now. Just an fyi, I run a set of Gotti wheels from a corvette race car that I had machined, and I run a 16x9 in the front and back with a similar offset with no rubbing. It...

Popped the new radiator in today, for the money it looks like a killer option. Dropped right in, no modifications required. I have yet to install the electric fans as I decided to build an aluminum shroud and double electric fan setup, and new silicone hoses and water pump. I have yet to see...

I am obsessed with Momo wheels. They are great! Nardi wheels are great, but I prefer leather. My car steering input is high, but I have 9" wheels with R compound tires, with factory wheel width it would be fine. I actually stole the wheel off of the Bavaria and put it on the Porsche I like it...

I'm pretty sure I currently have a 9 blade. This is a 2 core, but much thicker than the original. I always swap out clutch fans for electric on cars I drive often. I also had a 2.5 inch custom exhaust system made from the header back. No resonators and 1 large magnaflow in the stock round...

Just ordered an aluminum Ebay radiator, having issues with the car getting hot in stop and go traffic. I will report back once I install it next week with a review. Going with dual electric fans as well.

Different contact info on the new ad. My guess is the buyer on ebay for 5600 is flipping it for 9k.....

Seems cheap, good buy for the new owner

New update. I have been driving the Bavaria as often as I can! Put a few hundred miles on it in the last couple weeks, and it is a ton of fun. Also added a Magnaflow muffler because my muffler had a hole in it. The 3.5 sounds great. Also picked up a new toy to add to the main garage...

Someone asked about the bmw horn button in the prototipo. Here it is:

Still in the main garage, with it's new friends:

Back in the main garage, the bavaira blends right in next to much more high dollar cars.......
