Baurs at The Vintage 2017

UPDATE May 23, 2017 from Don Bower, the owner of the beautiful Schwarz (black) Cabrio Targa pictured below in this post:  

1. The black 72 Targa is ours -- Julie and Don Bower, Athens, GA. Recently imported from Italy and still running the original tags (GA tag in the trunk).
   The blue 74 is also a Targa from GA (can't recall the owner's name). It was a recent ebay purchase imported from South Africa, and it was awarded the Vintage People's Choice Award.
   The red/white 700CS is owned by Ryland and Sissy Owen of NC.The 700 Cabriolet was restored by, and is owned by, Patricia Schwarze of Florida. There was also a Bronzit '83 323 TC for sale by David Harrison (Harrison Motorsports) of Atlanta.

   
   

   Thank you for the info, Don, and congratulations to the owner of the Fjord Cabrio Targa that won the Hagerty People's Chioice Award this year! Here they are!   Pics by American Drive:

   

   
   

   
   This is a BIG DEAL, folks!  A Baur Cabrio Targa wins the Hagerty People's Choice Award!  That unusual 'form follows function' roof design is starting to get a little recognition! The Baurs are destined for "Collectible" status, and this award is another small step along the way!  Kudos to the owner (we would love to contact

   him!), and also to Julie and Don Bower, whose Schwarz Cabrio Targa follows!  Way to represent Baur, folks!

This was the weekend for The Vintage, formerly known as The Vintage in the Vineyards.  For the second year in a row, it was held in the Asheville, NC area (Hot Springs).  We were not in attendance, but we have tracked down some Baur pics from the event. 

First, we present some pics from Lissa Rickman, because she is The Hardest Workin' Woman at The Vintage once again!  Awesome, Lissa! 

700 Cabrio by Baur! 

Gotta love this pic from Rodney Middendorf:  Wegweiser, Wendy, Lisa Otwoprincess, the 700LS Baur Cabrio and the Fjord Cabrio Targa by Baur that won the Hagerty People's Choice Award!  And all in the midst of a bunch of other folks and cars that I cannot identify, of course.   You captured a Great Moment at The Vintage, Rodney!   Kudos! 

We spotted Jeff Dreibus' TC2 Baur in this group! 

Here it is! 

M1 by Baur!  This pic above and the two following pics were taken at the BMW headquarters in Greer, SC. 

M1 and Concorde!   Nice one, Lissa!  ;)

Black Cabrio Targa at right! 

Italian turn signals!  

Blue Voll Cabrio! 

Thank you, Lissa!  Awesome job! 

Here are more Baur pics from The Vintage, taken by Lisa Otwoprincess! 

Is that a beauty, or what! And a great pic, Lisa!  Kudos! 

More 700 pics! 

If this is a 1964-5 700LS...... then it is a Baur!  ;) 

Thank you for posting the pics, Lisa and Lissa!  ;)

Newly discovered Baur at The Vintage, from American Drive:  

This is, of course , a very familiar Baur to us, which we have featured in Baurspotting a number of times.

Here it is back in 2013,  at left when it was owned by Bruce H., alongside its twin, Baur 3596, owned by Will Bryant, also in Atlanta.   The color is actually Kastienrot.  ;)

This is Baur #2175, as listed in the International Baur Registry:
