Now I wonder if mine still has its sticker

[djjerme]

Yep, April 1985.

Nice!!!

On the back does it still have the Alpina sticker with date production. On my Alpina vent said 1984.

Came home, and this waiting for me on the table...

Fuel gauge is different, but the M3's had the option of an extended tank (we have one of those as well) so I believe the factory harness supports it..

The rarest is AC Schnitzer extended fuel tanks. Would you know one my friend?😎

If I had to guess where one might be, it would be your stash.

Im not sure I could appreciate one much. I'd install it for the fun, though! Need a new cluater too yes?

Are you planning on building e21 Alpina B6 2.8?

Was kicking it around, but also just thinking about building a E21 for weekend fun.. I've got the one "show" car, and the race car. I need something I can cruise around and not worry about a rock being kicked up by a Brodozer and denting the hell out of it.

Nice to see an e30 extended fuel tank. Not common at all.

^^ I have only seen Alpina tag on early extend fuel tanks like the e21. The e30 Alpina extended fuel tank never came with tags.

Does the e21 fuel tank have Alpina tag on tank? I noticed the e30 Alpina extended fuel tank is modified for batteries cables in trunk. Nice rare parts...

I'll have to double check it when I get home.. I don't recall seeing it on the E21 tank now that you mention it, but I may have just missed it. I actually picked it up on a whim.

Just over 14mm. Not giant, but with being adjustable, you can tweak it.

Also, what's your flavor? (E30 or E21..)

thank you. i guess i had never seen one of those before. i think my ix and m3 rear bars are 14mm but alas not adjustable.

Got this with a shit pile '83 733i/5 last week. Not in perfect shape but that's ok. Saving it for my secret squirrel M30 turbo car...if it ever takes shape. Ha

nice find too. i once pulled one of these out of a 7 series in the pick and pull for 18 bucks. it needed to be recovered though.
