    Deitel took over when Hardy&Beck ran the wrong side of Alpina (a rather interesting story in it's self).

    Deitel was forced to fold when the US Gov. tried to classify him as a manufacturer and ask for the back-taxes. Shame.

    Yes they are cool to look at. I got to check out a white e21 333i Mike Dietel care years ago. He would install AC these cars. Half of the AC would be in the trunk.

    I also would like to know.

    Today I worked on my thermostat housing. I saw some corrosion on the inside. Cleaned it up with my Dremel. Drilled two holes in my thermostat to allow more water flow.

    Those wheels would look amazing in my BMW 2002 Alpina, if you decide one day sell them please let me know ;). Regards
    I bought the Alpina centers 19 years ago. They came from Mission Viejo Cali. They came from Mike Dietel. He was a Alpina importer and euro BMWs in the late 70s and 80s.I have owned a couple Alpina's he imported. One was a e30 Alpina B6 2.8. Second one was a custom e21. It was called the Alpina 345i Turbo.
    The center look like they were original 5x120. I can see the 5 filled holes. That is why the Alpina log is missing letters. Mike Dietel use these on the Road&Track magazine. In the magazine they said 15x7 4x100 front and 15x8 4x100 rear.

    How is your beast coming out?

    Meh it's coming along. Finishing up the last patch of rust as week speak. Met with another painter today. He works for a highly known and trusted shop hear and does gigs on the side. Probably gonna go with him it may cost more like 2k more but it's going to be show quality and last forever.
