BMW diesel for sale...???

If anyone is interested. Local paper. 545TD I think it was. I think it said running also. Less than $1000. I can look it up again if anyone is interested.

Vixen owners would probably pick that up just to have spare parts.

At that price, there may be a stampede

of vintage BMW racers who want only the crankshaft -- the 524TD crank is a drop in replacement for those on 528 gasburners, but it's FORGED, not cast!

i'll bet

not many know what a vixen is!

it was a cool motor home that would fit in a 7' garage door. the top tilted up like a lunch box to give headroom. it originally came with a 524td with a fiver. they didnt sell very well and the mfgr. prob lost at the selling price anyway. i loved them and prob most buyers were engineers. i ran into one at the big fall auburn auction one year back when they were new. talked to the engineer owner for about a half hour.

cool.
