Petrolicious.....this guy loves his BMW's
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com That BMW R60 would be the machine that would start a life long love affair with the marque, leading to an exceptional circumstance around his son's birth, and a CS available to buy in Joliet Illinois. “I ran into the dealership and said to the man, “Don’t sell that coupe! My wife is in labor and I’ll be back in the morning to buy it.” As he was running out the sympathetic manager of the dealership said to his salesman, “If you don’t sell it to that man, you’re fired.” He returned shortly, bought the car, gave everyone in the dealership cigars, drove back to the hospital and picked his wife and newborn up "starting them off in style". |

He never said what he did for employment....that's what I wanna know!
Obviously a man with good taste and family values He had pride in the car he chose to drive his son home from the hospital in. |

That's a 1973 3.0CS. And it has been repainted. How do I know? It's subtle, but the bumpers are from a 1973. (The 1974 bumpers are hideous things. The 1972 bumpers are less pronounced.) As for being repainted, the front fender grilles are supposed to be over a black insert underneath. This car shows paint under the grilles. Very common in these cars, and so easy to fix.
How do I know? I owned a 1972 3.0CS from new, August 1972, until December 2001. I sold it to a big time director (Bond and Zorro films, etc.) who I hope still enjoys it. It was in superb condition when I sold it. I miss it every day. One of my favorite Bimmers.

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
Please consider wearing your seatbelt though, I want to see you live to do another video in ten years. Oh, and please do videos on your other two cars and bikes! |

Love his Coupe!
His cars and trains in his garage alone show what he enjoys.
He likes quality and he likes tinkering with many things. |

Can you imagine leaving hospital to go buy a car whilst the mrs is either in labour or just fired out the baby?
Christ it'd be all over facebook in 4 seconds and you'd be lynched by a femonazi mob. |
