Barn Find rare 70s BMW CS Coupe survivor car untouched for 38 years - will it run?

[@davidtyler2622]

I'm proud to say I was the instigator of this episode. I've know Gor for 4 yrs and he'd told me about this car he had in his garage. Last year I finally got to see it and as soon as the door opened I thought ......Jonny Late brake show.. I'm so glad Tony BMW and Jonny got it going again after so long and reading all the wonderful comments has made it all so worth while. Jonny and Tony are top blokes and to see Gor's face as it fired up was priceless. He's a great character and I'll be nagging him to get it done if he can raise the funds. Watch this space folks.. On behalf of Gor thank you all so much for your lovely comments and a huge thank you to Jonny and the team for doing this and sharing this beauty with you all.

[@TheLateBrakeShow]

Dave, we want to thank you for contacting the show and convincing Gor to let Jonny come and film his wonderful E9. Still cannot believe how easily it fired up!

[@davidtyler2622]

It's a pleasure it's too nice a car to be sat there in the dark! Glad everyone appreciated it great job as always guys. See you for the follow up vid.

Hi David, I live in Summerhill 5 mins away and own a 76 e3 it's the four door saloon version would love to pop over in it some time to take a look at the e9. Lovely cars and great video!!

Totally agree as the owner of a M235i Gran Coupe 21 plate. Its a great driving car but BMW have been systematically beating their recent cars with the ugly stick and my Gran Coupe looks OK from the rear but definitely has ugly stick pretensions elsewhere.

When he said £400 I was terrified that it was going to be the 1 that I missed out on for £375 in 1985. That 1 was white with Martini stripes, the lad took me out in it and absolutely horsed it, I'll never forget his words: "some tool isn't it?" It certainly was, we agreed on 375 and I went to get the money from my Mam, when I finally got back to him the next day someone had gazumped me with 400. I'm still not over it

[@reidster87]

Gor seems like quite the character. He obviously loves his E9 - evident in his finding a garage for it as a priority. Even though he hasn't been able to recommission it for the road over the years, it seems like he's made a concerted effort to prevent it deteriorating any further. It was lovely to see the condition of the engine bay, boot, and interior. I'm sure his diligence paid off with how easily that engine turned over and struck up once Jonny and Tony gave it the once-over. Another great barn find video, and one I particularly hope comes back to the channel with a happy update in the future!

[@TheLateBrakeShow]

Thank you so much for this comment. We are working to help steer Gor to find the right company who will recommission it in the way he can afford and then use it, probably with tatty paint as-is. We think Gor got quite emotional during the day, and realised he ought to get this beautiful car on the road before he's too old.

@malcolm7646 thanks for your positive response, I find it heartwarming that even total strangers are prepared to contribute a quid or two to help with the cost of getting my e9 back to a roadworthy condition. Let’s hope I can muster the necessary funds. Jonny and his Late Brake team have many professional contacts, and they are currently talking to various metal fabrication specialists who may be willing to provide quotes on the cost of the necessary repairs to the structural integrity of the car, obviously it would first need to be hauled away to a bodyshop for a closer inspection of the suspect areas. It really would be great to see how this project develops in a future episode. Kind regards Gor 😊

My E9 was sitting for 4 months last year (typical due to weather). I used that time to slowly replace the starter that turned into a few other engine projects. Once everything was back together, I turned the engine to test the starter and get some lube going (I had fogged the cylinders). It immediately sparked up and started running. I still had the garage door closed because I did not expect it to fire up without some turning for 10-20 seconds. I was shocked. Old BMWs and that old M30 engine are bullet proof.

Structural repairs do take time, so we must all be patient, and I’m almost certain more rust will be discovered once the bodywork specialists can get her up on the ramps for a full inspection, and perhaps even more when they start cutting her open. Meanwhile it seems there’s a very good chance that another of my favourite KZbin channels, Yorkshire Car restoration, might be interested in featuring my e9 with an episode covering specific details of the welding and fabrication processes involved, so you might want to keep checking this space for any further updates. 😂 haha, no worries and no pressure, I’m living the beach life here in sunny Saundersfoot, and surprisingly enough I’m actually quite capable of getting very good results with my projects, (which I never like to rush). I would much rather wait until I can have the repairs done properly or they won’t be done at all, whilst I’m her caretaker. This will be my biggest project to date, it’s certainly the longest I will ever take on in this lifetime.
