We had an interesting exchange in the E30 forum in bimmerforums today.
Another Found Baur, coming in from the cold! :)

Member E21BAUR of Torrance, CA posted the following:
Great to hear from you.... what is your Baur number? I don't know if your car is a 'new find', or if you are one of the ones we have been trying to track down. Exciting stuff!
"
Upon further reflection, the Torrance CA address sounded somehow familiar, so I did a little checking on our Google map, and ... sure enough .... we had already found this car from a post that he made a few months ago, but we had never been able to make any contact with him directly, until now! Here is the post I had found back in February:
Sooo.... another Baur has 'come in from the cold"!! :)

That is the main thread for "Baur TC1s in the US".... and there are several others from time to time. Lots of great info on that thread... it's loooong! We have done a lot of work and we have had some amazing finds since we started in December 2010. It has been a blast! Check it out. Enjoy!
Send us some pics and any info you can, and I will post it on the primitive Google map showing the located Baurs in the US.
