    probably would have a higher valuation a couple yrs ago. looks ok for a driver but i wouldn't call it exceptional. auto is definitely gonna slow the interest.

    How much of a value hit is thing taking due to the auto trans? If it were a manual, it could be worth $4k more. Thoughts?

    For Sale: 1969 BMW 2800 (E3)

    Hello All, I am selling my 1969 BMW 2800 (Atlantik Blue) which is a wonderful early style E3 with some interesting history and documentation. I’m currently embarking on another large car project and the E3 doesn’t get driven as much as it deserves to. I’m hoping it will go to a home where its story will continue with a BMW enthusiast and her/his family can make some fun new memories.
    Let me know if you have any questions, I’ll do my best to help.

    THE CAR:
    I’ve done quite a bit with this car, some smaller nice-to-haves and other larger ticket items. If you’re a serious buyer in the NYC metro area, feel free to arrange a time to come by to have a look, the car is in North Bergen County in Westwood, NJ. I’m also happy to work with you on any shipping arrangements you’d want to put together.

    Information on what I know of the car’s history is also below. The NJ title is clean and in my name.

    The following has been done since August 2022, and I’ve collected all invoices, receipts, etc to pass along to the new owner:

    New Tires
    New Brake System, Stem to Stern (hard lines, rotors, calipers, pads, master cylinder, brake fluid reservoir/hoses, and a 2002s Only tii-modified brake booster modified for the E3
    New Exhaust:
    One new exhaust manifold (W&N)
    New mid pipe
    New rear exhaust (W&N)
    2x new Weber 38/38 DGES carburetors
    New 123ignition distributor (with bluetooth)
    New Alternator w/Voltage Regulator
    New Control Arms (W&N) with stock bushings
    New Tie Rods, Tie Rod Ends, and Middle Tie Rod Connector (**NOTE: CAR WILL NEED ALIGNMENT CHECKED, hasn't been completed yet after tie rod install
    Newly Rebuilt Blaupunkt Frankfurt Radio
    New Battery Installed Aug 2022
    New starter motor
    New Master Clutch Cylinder/hoses
    New Slave Clutch Cylinder/hose
    New Rear Differential Mount Bushing
    New Silicone Coolant hoses (Ireland Eng.)
    New Momo “Retro” Steering Wheel
    New wooden shift knob
    I changed the oil filter assembly to the “top bolt” style - much easier to work with!
    New Front Seat Belts (retractable)
    New Electric Carter Fuel Pump
    New Front Coco Mats, Black with Blue (to reflect the exterior color)
    New Hella Trumpet Horn Set
    New Gas Cap Seal, fuel lines from the fuel tank, etc
    New fuel sender gasket on fuel tank
    New Oil Pressure Sensor
    New Fuel Filter/Fuel Pressure Regulator Combo (Filter King made to look period correct)
    New Valve Cover Gasket
    New Spark Plugs, rotor, distributor cap

    THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:
    There are some small locations of rust which I tried to capture in the photos, although the frame and floors are solid
    The car was clearly repainted in original Atlantik at some point, but I didn’t find any documentation for that in the paperwork I received.
    There are a couple of minor dings, dents, and areas of faded paint and/or scratched clear coat (I also tried to photograph these).
    The driver's side armrest is broken near where the top of it meets the door. It's completely functional in terms of opening and closing the door, but bit detached
    The AC components are present, but the system isn’t operational.
    I cannot for the life of me get the trunk hood liner to stay up, I’ve tried adhesives etc. I’m sure there’s a trick for this, but it’s not been annoying enough to address (but close). Tiny binder clips are there now to keep it out of the way.
    Front driver’s side bottom seat covering would benefit from being recovered. However the fuzzy covers I have over it are unexpectedly comfortable, so I haven’t been too motivated to repair
    Rear passenger’s side door does not open. I think it’s the lock that is stuck. I don’t have a lot of rear-seat passengers, so I never got to this.
    There is a ring of JB weld at the connection between the exhaust midpipe and the muffler, not a concours solution, I know. It should probably be permanently welded at some point but there’s no functional issue.
    The original clock is present but non functional.
    There was a small power steering fluid leak, which seemed to be coming from the hose connection to the pump. I replaced the hose, but I think there is still a very small leak still present. I haven’t chased that down as of yet.
    Upon topping off the gas tank there was a small fuel leak noticed in the tank area under the car. I suspected this was the gasket at the fuel sending unit which was deformed. This was replaced, although I have not tested this by completely filling the tank again.
    This really is an awesome, super early E3 which has been owned by enthusiasts, with a ton a new work done to it. It’s clearly the coolest one for sale right now by far, in my unbiased opinion :).
    The VIN, 2420018, I believe indicates that it was the 18th 2800 built in 1969 for the US market, what was the first year here. So it was one of the first E3's to be sold in the US. I'm not saying that adds to the value, but I do think it's cool.

    THE OWNERSHIP STORY: I am the third owner of the car. It was originally sold at Ocean City BMW in California to a BMW enthusiast who was very involved in the Southern California chapter of BMWCCA. I have the original sales paperwork, along with some other interesting documentation/communication between the original owner and BMW. This includes the owner’s manual, shop manuals, and a very cool little BMW flag which I think was displayed on the car at the dealer. The paperwork trail has the car returning to Germany for a few years while the owner’s son worked there in the US military. The car was then shipped back to CA, eventually to Idaho, then Washington state. The car was then stored for 20ish years in a garage. It was then sold to the first owner’s neighbor in Washington where it was planned to be a project between him and his father. Sadly, the second owner’s father passed away and they never were able to work on the car together. I then purchased it, had it trailered from Washington to my home in New Jersey where I have gotten it back to road-worthiness. One could argue (not that I am) that I am the second owner as the fellow I bought it from only stored it, but as goes the paperwork, I am the third. You could be the third/fourth :) !​
