Hello Austin..
Thanks for checking my E21 out. After my GF left me 3 years ago, I had a long downperiod, and it all stopped for me... I got a new job after that, and I have been travelling alot in my work, so not too much time left. But ofcourse, I cannot blame everything on ex's and job either, I was kinda burned out.
But nevertheless, it is not forgotten, it will see daylight again. I have also bought myslelf another project (a much smaller one ofcourse), so I will finish up first, before I go for the E21 again.
It is a E28 Alpina B7 TurboKat #239... 320 BHP... Gonna be my "daily" driver....
Thanks for bumping me up anyways....

well sorry to hear about the girlfriend but cars are better than women anyway, they argue less. sounds like a good new project aswell, got any pictures of the new car?

Pics? Yeah, I might throw out some for amusement, even though it is not E21

Nice e28 although I much prefer your cab' e21. I'd love a proper full convertible e21. How rare are they in Norway? Are the ones that remain expensive? I guess I could look at converting a UK car but I wouldn't want the roof to look like some old tent like some of the Baur copies I have seen.
Apart from your car this is the only full cab' I have seen. I'd change the colour and put the chrome back but everything else looks spot on!

Hi, they were (as far as I know) only build in 110 ex.
I have located 8 or nine here in Norway, but only one with plates...
Lumma did some full-cab convertions aswell, they are nice...
Yeah, the e21 is more of a fun car than a E28, but remember - the Alpina B7 Turbokat E28-version that I have has 320 BHP... It is fast like a todays "sportscar", with the nostalgic feeling. The E28 will be a "daily" driver, but the E21 will (sometime, when finished) be a "sunny weather" car...

The blue one is a Lumma. I really like e28's and yours should be awesome with that much power. The e21 would still be my favourate though.

Sure!!!
I am selling an e21 peters cabrio
For restauration or for parts
there were only 110 build, (as far as i know)
the car was transformed in 1988 by the Firm Peters & Co for 5700 DM. I still own the bill
The car hasn't been on the road since 1998, after that long, offcourse, not possible to drive instantly.
the Front brakes are missing. the engine is rotating, but he won't start anymore..
the roof is not on the car this moment, but in is in good condition. the roofprotection???? wich is for when the roof is open do i also have. there are different places with rust. a good thing will be that if you take pictures yourself and go look at the car.
The car has to be picked up by trailer
For furhter questions Tel.: 01772913233
the car have to be picked up and payed after 1 week from the ending of this advertisment.
sorry for my bad spanish!!
