  1. Price: $375
    Location: Northern Chicago Suburbs - 60046


    Description:

    This is a nice straight set that would benefit from a good cleaning, or better yet, complete refinishing. 
    One wheel has a couple of small cracks on one center cap area (shown in pic 6).
    $375 plus shipping.

    Thanks!

  2. Hi Guys,

    I am trying to find out if the 700 VIN and engine numbers should match, or are they not matching numbers on the car but matched via a database in Munich.

    Also, does anyone have a  brake down of the VINs through the years and what they mean (VIN decoding)?

    Thanks in advance,

    Doug-

  3. Actually, in 1967 those fasteners were all clear zinc (silver) or black. A few things might have been gold, possibly calipers and the clamp holding the outer base for the clear half shaft boots (the V band). Things didn't become consistently gold until after 1971.

    I own a very original '67 1800 and everything is either black or clear zinc, and I'm restoring a '71 2800CS and almost everything on it is clear zinc except for a hand full of black bolts and the gold calipers.

  4. Hey Daniel.

    You probably already have this done, but if you don't, its best to put the whole thing together on the bench.

    Tape everything into place every 10 inches or so. When putting the cord into the slot on the backside, create a about a 6" crossed loop in the center of the top and the two ends crossed about 6" at the bottom. Then set the windshield assembly in place, and start pulling the seal in at the center, both top and bottom. (This keeps the the windshield from riding up out of the opening.) Then work each side into place, saving the upper corners for last.

    Hope this helps!

    Doug-
