Does any 1 know this car???

[clackmac325]

When i was a Rockingham i spotted this.I should of left my number and asked the owner to give me a call,but was a bit worried i might sound .Id really like to know how they managed to do this conversion.I think it looks awsome

[dazleeds]

could be a baur with the roof welded on?? looks homemade Daz

[Davenotouring]

This is the Targa top which was at Gaydon?

Dunno know owns it though.

[TOURINGDADDY]

how nice is that then

[dazleeds]

looks like baur at the back do you think he welded up the back bit and then made a new targa section to fit????

looks like it to me that back pillar just looks baur

[clackmac325]

Its a baur. But how did they manage to do the roof?It must be the rear of a tin top grafted on but id like to know the ins and outs of what was involved.I think it gives a nice individual look.Not my ideal choice of wheels an i think a better body kit.But i love it.If only i could find a genuine baur hard top could have the choice.Colour cool too.

[dazleeds]

i agree about the wheels
and like it with the roof on nut think it might look wrong once the tops off??? interesting project tho?? food for thort had a home made cabrio 325 once professionaly done but just never looked right with roof down and storing hood was shit could never get the cover to sit right but this wouldnt have those probs wish it had roof off

can anyone take it off with photoshop????Daz

[clackmac325]

You had a home made cab? Got any pics,or do you mean a baur. They was a Ԛ£4000 option from the dealers.Now sadly they seem to be the lowest of the low.Dont know why though.

just love that lower body trim
under fog lights , sides and rear bumper
is it from a 5 series or is it ???
does anyone know where to get these bits from

[clackmac325]

The front is a early e30 front splitter,i just sold one.The sides are usually found on SE's.The rear is a mtec 1.Please correct me if im wrong!!!

[chief]

thanks for the info

[dazleeds]

clackmac
sadly no pics sorry they got lost when moved home

had all the bracing work done and looked well sweet prob still out theyre some where never had it on road legally as it was a project car for me but had it on motorway few times in middle of night asked a few people and they valued it at four grand with no tax/test and fooked to death leathers was a special order or somet??? 1984 model with irish plate Daz

[clackmac325]

Shame about the pics.Was it a full drop head or a baur type?
I wish i still had photos of some of my early bangers happy memories dude.Its funny when i think of old cars i had i always relate them to some girl i was with at the time.Dam thank god that avenger had vynal(eh) seats.LOL

i saw this thing a few years back(donington 2002), then at gaydon last year. aparently it has an escort rear windscreen.

i think the owner resides in nottingham. as i saw it on the road when i visited there around 7 months back.

[dazleeds]

yeah clack
full cabri mate to the untrained eye you would never know
was told bmw did it as a special order but no proof so took as wrong but it was very well done just a bit battered when i got her had some fun tho tunnels in leeds full belt in 3rd with stainless and twin dtm it fookin roared mate as fcuk

had very fat mtec style bumpers but fatter than mtec and skirts wider would have been gr8 car just couldnt afford to sort it out

[clackmac325]

Shame,I have a feeling that car would be worth a mint now. Its always the same ,ive seen so many bargains around the last couple of weeks.Only cus im going on holiday at the end of the month
Damn i wish i had a rich bitch.
