Could be. Won’t know wether it’s a polished turd or monies were spent on it until it’s inspected.
I’m sure the dealer didn’t buy it to put money into it.
Thought maybe the previous owner might have been on here and could shed some light.
Never hurts to look at them all.
Thanks Les. I was hoping you’d see this.
Knew you would have the vin. I’ll pass this along and they can get it on a hoist to see the trouble spots you mentioned.
Anybody know of any history on this 74 Tii sitting in a Palm Springs dealership by chance? Sorry no Vin #. Sister looked at it and is now in another town.
Thanks guys. Know it’s a long shot with no vin.
Pehlivano came up with a nice reproduction and a very reasonable price I would say.
For the nay sayers saying that the price is too high then pass on these and go find a NOS set. Report back at the deal you found. For the not original material guys.
Your right. These aren’t original so it may not be the same.
Give the guy credit. He reproduced something we all wanted.
Job well done Pehlivano.
I have a NOS set in my box but will probably be contacting you for another set before BMW shuts it down for copyright infringement like they have with so many of my VW repros.
They look good and are at just the right price.
Thanks for doing this.
Three quick questions as I’m not near my car.
Why would the mold be different? Wouldn’t it be the same as the old BMW mold even if the original mold wore out?
Can you remove this part from your car without destroying it or it or should I just get a new one.
Is the Tii identical to this one pictured.
Thanks guys.
Edit: D.Martijn. It looks like the foil is missing on the far right side. Was that scraped and tore off or did it come like that?
Pretty shabby if it is like that new for BMW to ship out.
Hey Skip.....
took a few years break from the Tii and groups. Got lost as it’s been many years.
Starting to think about sticking it on a rotisserie and had to refresh and rethink.
Get in the 02 groove again.
Forgot a lot of shit about these things.
Hope all is good for you and all the old names on here.
I’ll take one also Paul.
Too lazy to go look at my car but I’m sure I’ll screw mine up when I rip into my car.
Thanks.
Are these zinc plated or brass plated like yer drawing?
I’m sorry. I couldn’t take it. I read a few lines and closed the page. I’ll get the description from your posts here. WTF?
going to look at the pics now but from your few posts here it sounds like it needs a restoration.
Edit:
Glad I did that... Not.
That thing is brutal. Esty would shoot herself if she lived out there and had to deal with clients like that. Nice engine bay.
One windshield pisser pointing down to the drain tube n the other one missing.
Yep. Needs total restoration. Nice coffee can.
