    The Bavarian Ranchero







    We have decided, after all, that we can present the Bavarian Ranchero to the world. You may recall from prior e-mails that we started with a 1973 Ford Ranchero. After several valiant attempts at saving the engine, we decided that it was beyond repair. While we were trying to decide what to do next (new engine? new car?) a 1991 BMW 318i fell into our laps. We were reluctant to take it until we had a brilliant idea: turn the BMW into a Ranchero. Therefore, we carved the body work, lights, mirrors, etc. off the Ranchero, cut them down to size as appropriate, and grafted them onto what we are calling the Bavarian Ranchero.
    The body work is rough at the moment, but we are getting ready to get the bondo out. We plan to run, if accepted, for the Thunderhill race.

          I'm sorry but that sucks. there are soo many cooler e30's in lemons...
          These are the two teams I'm rooting for.
          One is the Cheese Surrendering Monkeys Peugeot 505 Turbo (HOT LIVING SEX)
          and the other is my town local Junior Garcia's Spiekshammer Volvo 242 Turbo....I got to go in it..

              Oh come on. You of all people should be able to appreciate the finer points of a 318i Ranchero restomod.
