Just got a 72CSi about three weeks ago (pics/url) (archive)

Hello all, I just got one of these money pits three weeks ago. It was still very drivable when I got it (smokes alot). I drove it from Marin, CA to San Jose, CA with no problems.. very fun car to motor in. I had recently sold my e30 M3, and I think that the car is almost as much fun to drive.

I drove the car off and on for about a week, then began taking it apart. It has no side glass, interior pannels, carpet, exterior trim, or bumpers. I drove it to a freinds house in Santa Cruz to begin rebuilding it.

So far, I have purchased a new headliner, new center armrest leather for the rear seats, new headliner, trunk seal, some of the door seals, an 88' 735i motor, a 265 tranny, and a 3.64lsd. Total including the purchase price of the car about 6K. Not too bad, another 4k in body and paint and it should be a really nice car.

go to the url and check out all of the stuff I have owned (my tii and m3)..
