BMW E12 Restoration Project

[beemerholic]

Hello All.

I have recently bought a 1978 BMW 518 and now am in the process of restoring it. I am in the beginning stages at the moment.

I would like to share my project with all you BMW fanatics and would love your feedback and suggestions.

Thanks!

Nice!
My dad had one of those back in the day. Solid car.
Does it have the Stongberg twin carbs?

No sir, I believe it came out the factory with the strombergs? Mine has a weber 32 36 carb. Speaking of which.. The throttle linkage is not in good shape so took it yesterday to get checked out. Might buy a complete same carb or just use the linkage off another.

Will post pics shortly!
