Aka, my builder and his machinist take their sweet time. :D

Just swung by to see the head back from cutting, and they had to helicoil #4 spark plug. Poor girl must have had a frozen thread or a bad mechanic in her life, all but the last few turns were left, asking to turn a plug into a bullet.Was a little concerned about the amount of corrosion to the water passages on 1 and 2, and their proximity to the sealing surface around the pistons, but he assured me it's not an issue.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation.
