Seller's comments about 1972' BMW E9 3.0 Csl
* FOR SALE* BMW 3. 0 CSL // UK RHD CSL // FRESH NUT & BOLT RESTORATION
EQUIPMENT
RHD UK City Pack, Ceylon Gold, Electric Windows, PAS, Scheel Sports Seats, 14″ Alloy Wheels, Aluminium Bonnet, Boot Lid and Door Skins, Tool kit, Chrome Bumpers Front and Rear, Bluetooth Audio connection.
EXTERIOR
This jaw dropping CSL is finished in Ceylon Gold – an unusual period colour that captures the era perfectly. The colour looks just right on this homologation special against the black CSL stripe, period black number plates, black wheel centres and lashings of chrome around the body.
The paint work is first class having just rolled out from a 2 year nut and bolt restoration with marque specialists. The car has been stripped to a bare metal shell and rebuilt as per factory standard spot welds, folds and panels. Further rust proofing is carried out at this time while panels are removed to ensure the integrity of the work is upheld for much longer than even the factory intended when new. Every component then attached is either rebuilt, refinished or replaced.
As such every inch of the car is like new including the underneath which is as good to look at as the above with all components treated and rebuilt. Simply staggering and a worthy finish for such a successful touring car.
INTERIOR
The interior in a BMW E9 coupe is like none other, beautifully laid out with plenty of wood trim it is just a wonderful place to be. Much like the exterior, no item has escaped attention inside. Anything replaced has been done so with careful consideration to ensure the original factory finish or colour scheme has been upheld. The punched black headlining specific to the CSL has been replaced with an exact copy as has the carpet, speckled in colour, more often than not just replaced with black cloth.
Slide into the brand new Scheel seats and it’s obvious this is a special car. Factory door seals and window seals have all been renewed and the plastic carpet covers (all too easily broken or lost) are still present and in excellent order.
A hint of modern tech is hidden away in the form of a bluetooth unit to allow music streaming to the original fitment centre mounted speaker in the dash.
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The matching number 3. 0L engine has been fully rebuilt to ensure common integrity throughout the restoration. Every component attached has been stripped down and re-plated or replaced resulting in a fresh as-new finish rarely seen on the CSL.
The gearbox and drivetrain has also been fully stripped with every bush of linkage refurbished or renewed – this becomes obvious when out on the road with a tight and positive shift.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The period 14 inch BMW wheels are refurbished and present as new with sparkling chrome centre caps, new stickers and wheel bolts. Wrapped in as new Dunlop tyres, the multi spoke alloys hide new calipers, discs and pads all round.
All suspension components have been renewed with new shocks, ball joints and rubber bushes complimenting an incredible restoration and contributing to a tight and responsive drive as if it were new back in 1972.
HISTORY FILE
First registered on the 8th March 1974, and confirmed by BMW group archive as being produced from the factory in Ceylon Gold, Chassis 2285446 has been lucky enough to have been completely and painstakingly rebuilt for a second lease of life.
On file is a full photographic album of the restoration from start to finish showing the intense and lengthy effort that has been lavished on this historic BMW touring car.
This CSL is now ready for a new owner to propel it into its second life as a brand new CSL restored to factory standards as it rolled out of BMW nearly 50 years ago.
