At 2:10 when he calls it a Mercedes, that seems to be a common issue to get BMW and Mercedes confused!  Sam. |

Fabulous, he got it running and driveable again! I have liked that BMW model for years, the E3 saloon 1968-77, predecessor of the 7 series. A friends dad had a couple in the 80's he bought, owned for a while and sold. One was a Norwegian import LHD 2800, and the other I think was the 3.0i.
A couple of E3 Bimmer's were used in Sweeney 2, one as a police car, and the other as the blaggers getaway motor.

Still looks a fair old job to restore it but it's possible. I was wondering a bit about the model . Great info, cheers Gerald   |

Great find that vid Del.  Yes I too hope he can get that Beamer back to full glory but it will be a massive job to sort that one.  |
