Ha ha! Yes I am indeed!
I received the car yesterday and it's great, but I have a lot of questions and work to do. The list is just beginning. The rear windows don't lower, wipers don't work (not that I plan to drive in any rain), window seals seem shot, etc. The car drives great and I really love it. I'm not even sure what license plate adapter to get. I like the idea of mounting the plate over the European plate (on the car now). Any advice on that would be great. Sorry to be such a rookie. This is truly my first vintage BMW.
It would be great to meet up with the Denver members and get some in-person advice after you take a look.
Thanks-
Scott

That must be quite a relief to see it roll off the truck and finally be with you. Looks like it made the voyage well.
Look forward to meeting you and seeing it in the metal!

Likewise, Jim. Keep me posted on when you all get together.
Looks great!!
I bought a universal plate adapter that has the European bolt pattern on the body side and many patterns on the rear side. I have no European plate to keep, it was jus the the Lancia had just the European shape to mount.
Your electrical items seem simple, probably start from the rear window switches and see if the 12V gets through them.

Message me and I will send you a PDF of the owners manual if you don't have one, it's great introductory reading.
There are some great resources on this site: https://e9coupe.com/forum/pages/published-sources/

Hi guys, I've been quiet on here lately so welcome to all the new members in the Denver area.
June 4th is the Colorado Concours d'Elegance at Arapahoe Community College
I wasn't planning on bringing the E9, but if you want to meet up there, I will change my plans.
I'll post this info in the Events section so we don't drag scamluka's thread too far off topic

Sounds like fun. I've never been to any kind of event like this, so it will be fun to see how it works. I'll be there.

Hello all - does anyone have any experience with importing a vehicle from the UK (ideally to Colorado). I have learned that the UK vehicle registration system does not have any sort of proof of ownership document (i.e. title). Evidently, the V5C logbook is all they have. That said, the DMV has registered my E9, but will not title it without an ownership document from the UK. Any guidance would be appreciated.
