No... I've asked Walloth & Nesch, my local BMW dealer and searched for a good 2nd hand one, but there aren't any new/good ones available.

So did you make it yourselve or let a company do it for you?
Im interested in a new carpte too

I have it done for me. Costs me around 450 euros inc. VAT for the floor and the "hoedenplank". Was the lowest price I could find in Limburg. Others asked 700 euros

I've heard an original carpet costed approx 250 euros.

NICE !! Good job. I'm looking forward to see your car in real.
Do you go to a meeting in NL/B this year?

@ Jeroen;
You almost can make a separate BAUR section! in this Forum.
Is there any count of members with there cars?
So how many baurs, 315's etc. are there here?

@323baur: thanks! It is not going to be a show-winning car, I wanted it to be a rust free car that will give me Freude am Fahren for the next years!

I'm looking forward to visit a BE/NL e21 or baur meeting. There aren't many around in normal traffic. Last year I have been at the 25 years e30-meeting in Gemert. Was good fun!

Did you know there's a baur register on the internet? http://www.bmwbaurtc.nl/

Yeh,

I'm the owner of yhe NG-61-ZX (81, 323).
My car is also complete restored. This winter I will make the finishing things. At this time the original 15"alpina's and the complete Simons exhausts are already mounted. Now I waite for the return of the recaro interior which is re-leathered. After that I will make some new pics.

Mist this topic for a while...

You are doing a great job!! I nearly bought that car (somewhere in nrd-holland

) but i (read my wife)didn't feel good about it. I love the color and it's probably the oldest Baur in the Netherlands (or Schneider?)

Keep up the good work!

Mine is the 71963 on http://www.bmwbaurtc.nl/ bought it a couple of weeks later near limburg

Hope to do some meetings too this year

looking forward to a meeting too! It's likely for my car to be a Schneider, but I still want to compare my car to a real baur to see the difference. I knew the car was going to be a bit of a project when I bought it, but that was my intention. And, after all, it turned out to be not as bad as I had expected.

You have one really nice Baur there! Nearly as nice as mine!

Single headlights look so much nicer (on a Baur anyway!

) and seeing yours has convinced me to convert mine - thanks
