I hope they don't put a Ford Wincer in it...
no better time to list your car on BAT. I'm sure there will be a lot of new found interest in the car.
I look forward to watching this episode. Only two days ago I was introduced to the show "For the Love of Cars" and Ant Anstead. It will be interesting to see what they do to the e9. Thanks for posting!

Damn... wasn't planning on watching W.D. since Ed left but guess I will give Mike's new guy a shot.

I'm confident they will restore it for under $2500 to factory new condition.

And get a brilliant $5,000 paint job done in 2 weeks... Fjord blue like the Tii they did I bet.

No, with nice cars he usually stays away from major pitfalls. My guess he will mutter the word 'rust' 23 times in the episode each time trying to avoid buying a car with such fate.
He will most likely buy a tired old California example and refurbish the mechanicals + give it a good spit & polish inside/out.
This is one version of events....my 'synopsis'

Wouldn't it be funny if he buys a gogoout or BHCC car?

Someone posted an ad that worked for them that they were looking to buy one that needed small things. Tried to sell them mine, but I guess I wanted too much. Lol

I think they'll skip the periodic maintenance items like replacing sills, wheelhouses, and fenders and stick to common repair items like stuck odometers.
Can't wait to see it.

Ha! Well - they did a fairly good job with the Tii so I have high hopes. Maybe it was just so they could say "Kugelfischer" a lot...

Funny enough I tweeted Mike Brewer earlier this year asking if they had any plans to restore an E9!

Mike Brewer already has a picture posted of him inside an E9. Look forward to see what he does!
....slow window motors...enter your choice of common fix, here :
He did a segment on a CSL in one of his early shows. He seemed to know them reasonably well.
