"Aqua Turtle" / Registry # 10
 
Owner : Brian
Year/Model : 1975 BMW 3.0 CSi (VIN # : 4340016)
Project End Date : 8/31/2006
About this restoration : Brian’s father had a passion for BMWs and Porsche’s. After selling a 911 SC Targa, he bought this 3.0CS Coupe in 1991 with the intention of restoring it, unfortunately, he passed away before the project could begin. Brian and his brother inherited the car after it had been sitting on a dirt floor in a barn in central Illinois for seven years. They decided, as a tribute to their father, they would fulfill Dad’s dream and sent the car to us. It did not run and had extensive rust damage when it arrived at the shop. After the restoration was completed, Brian’s brother’s interest changed and he sold his half back to Brian, who then moved to Las Vegas and had the car shipped there. Recently, Brian drove the Coupe to Lake Tahoe for his wedding (see photo) and now does many CCA events with the Sin City Chapter. You’ll also see Brian driving a sweet 2002 that is loaded with rare Alpina parts.

About this restoration : Update:
I entered the 3.0 in the Hamptons car show this past weekend and it won first place in the coupe&cab class. It beat the XK140 you can see in the background which was in mint condition!! The car was the buzz of the show. People LOVED it and all commented on what a excellent job you and your crew did!!!!!This was the fist time i took the car out of storage since last year. It looks great and screams down the road. WOW, it sounds hot and runs great!
I just want you to understand the car BLEW people away!!!! The color, the interior, and the engine bay! Perfect!

About this restoration : Bob's vision for this Coupe, maybe the most beautiful BMW ever designed, is to have an elegant week-end cruiser. It will hold more than one set of golf clubs and will be at the club often. The photos are of the car as she arrived in the shop. Watch for the updates, this is going to be a custom stunner.
