Selling the beast to make room for new projects. I would love to see someone here carry the torch. I can answer questions about it. Asking $750 for GRMers. Hoosiers extra, but still a good deal. Located in Chicago area. Clean title, runs and drives, PM me.

In reply to spitfirebill:

13.5 was the score, I forget what 'place' that was. it was 2nd of the aristocrats, and as mentioned other places our times were all so close the concours basically determined the final order.

I was just curious how the shaved paint went over.

yeah, me too a little bit. I think I scored well in the concours because the non-paint fit the 'theme'. I had an 'executive rat rod' going in a lot of places, including power sliding rear racing seats, and custom copper trim and roundels.

I also have to believe that the v12 helped. Rumor has this may have been the first v12 challenge car.

I will say the car attracted a lot of attention in the paddock. Mostly positive, some negative. You know how it goes.

If I wasn't already sitting on a plane at O'Hare I would be changing my travel plans. The chance to own a V12 car for a grand? Why the heck not???

I just keep telling myself, you don't need any more cars! and a "cheap" V12 BMW, what could go wrong?
