BMW E12 V8 Racecar Build

That is now looking proper sexy.

I was thinking the bat mobile front would have suited it better but now looking at the side profile, i have changed my mind.

Thank you very much. I must say, the wheels make a significant difference.


The “Batmobile” concept had been considered for quite some time; in fact, the rear fenders were the initial starting point of the design. However, it became apparent that this direction detracted somewhat from the original E12 aesthetics. The objective therefore remains to preserve and respect the factory E12 design lines.

But the plan is still to fit a group B style rear wing and an aggressive front splitter with a flat floor.

Wow - phenomenal build and thread. Thanks for sharing. These are the best kind of threads. Sad that i am missing Zwartkops this weekend but will see this car in person another time. All the best with the race.
