    633csi rightpedals bavarian junk

    I hope this qualifies as it is RWD, a 5speed, and a slant six (groan if you must).



    I went with a freind to pick up a 3.0

    The old guy is selling off his entire collection mostly MGB stuff. There were 3 633 cars and 2 635s. I got to talking and $300 later the 633 fallowed me home. It was shipped from AZ in 2008 and sat after the fuel pump died. The more I talked the more parts he gave me.
    fuel pump
    4 new bilstiens
    new clutch set
    front and rear glass
    weatherstriping
    fender and bumperets (to repair the damaged one)
    about every motor in the car (wiper window radio)
    computer
    dash controls
    dash cover
    family of mice









    The car was filthy dirty scuzy



    I have since cleaned it up and will shoot more pictures when it is daylight.

    I pulled the lift pump to get an idea of what i am playing with. Had to order one one line $70 after shipping. The pump he gave me is the pressure pump under the car. it looks strait forward. But why two pumps?

    Car $300
    pump $70
    filter+lines $40
    total to date $410.00

    Well I have stopped buying stuff for cars I don't own. Is that a step in the right or wrong direction?

    Nice score! Those can be lovely cars with the right stance and wheels & tires. A local friend picked up a clean M6 roller for something like $1200, then he built a non-M engine for it with a turbo and Megasquirt. Goes like hell on track, I went for a ride in it as Mosport last year, and it looks bad azz.

    Good luck with the project!

      WOW - you stole that thing - those have always been neat looking cars, I hope it serves you well for many years - BMW inline 6s are very durable when treated right - a friend has well over 300k on his 328. Is this your new daily driver or an autocross car or?
      There's always something new to learn.

        nice score.... amazing how quickly a car can fall from worthy-of-shipping to rodent home.

          Why do they always want to share the rats? Hate that. Anyway - nice ride. If there's anything I don't care if an LSx goes into, it's Euro anything. An aluminum 6.2 would be great in there! Good luck with it, post up more pics when it's clean. Looks like a great score!!!

              Ed I don't see that kind of dedication with this car. But one can dream (my dream would not involve a six cyl)

              John the short answer is sure... I daily drive the work van cause most places I go is work. weekend/days I don't need a table saw. It needs to shed a pound or twelve hundred. This thing is portly 4350 lbs.

              SBG The guy I got it from had maybe 16 cars that I saw ranging from parts junk to immaculate he had to many projects.(I aspire to be him one day)

              Begs That dream I mentioned earlier involved a 671, a couple of carbs and a big bug catcher. It would look cool and totally give the finger to the purist.

              Scott Didn't spencer for hire have a 635 that one of the side kicks drove. I can see it now carrharts a pink shirt and a white jacket.


              Picks when I am home in the daylight.

                  No we move in to the new house this weekend and I really shouldn't be working on the bmw. That said new fuel pump in we have pressure but no spark.

                    as long as you dabble in cars, you will be there someday soon

                      You forgot to deduct $25,000 from your new home-value now that thing is in the driveway...

                        I'm mildly jealous. Occaisionally I look for an old Capri II for a beater. This would be better. The 3.0 CS I think they called them? I still have a weakness for them.

                              I can't remember except Spenser's dark green '65 mustang fastback. Or, was it black? I think Moonlighting, Bruce Willis' show, had a silver one. I think. It's hard to remember cars you don't care about.

                              That car was popular to the yuppies in the '80s.
