Well, I have a type 1 e21, build until 1979. Tours is newer and a type 2 e21. Different mirrors, front valance, dashboard, rear lights and some other details. The panel you welded on is also (a bit) different.


It's the man next door!

This is the replacedment part I need to clean. Look at the number of welds. I count 18, Brové used exactly 1. ONE!. Wankers. They still amaze my.

From the top:
Old and rotten
Old and repaired
New and type 2, W&N

What’s the difference between type 1 and 2? Gap in the middle, type 1 is not round. The edge on top, that fits around the vinnumber. The are perfectly interchangeable, but that’s not how it should be ;-). The advantage of the type 2 is, that that one can be attached to the inner wing, unther the chassisnumber.
