Baur Parts: Wanted/For Sale

Baurspotting offers this page as a service to Baur owners world-wide. Baurspotting has no affiliation with any ads on this page, unless otherwise noted. So....... caveat emptor. 
It is worth noting that several bimmerforums members have reported having good luck recently in obtaining some Baur specific parts, including roof seals and fasteners, through their local BMW dealership.  The new BMW Classic Center is one of the ways BMW is trying to cater to the owners of older classics, like ours.  (See ad below.)

UPDATE July 12, 2018
Someone out there may be in need of these 'Unobtainium' cabrio targa latch guides.

UPDATE May 23, 2018:  
I am posting this as  Public Service message, in case anyone is in need of the the Baur emblem badge that attaches at the "B" pillar for both the E21 (TC1) and the E30 (TC2).    I found them today on eBay.  I have no interest or affiliation in the sale, btw.  They are different, so please check to make sure you get the appropriate one for your Baur.  ;)

Here is the E21 TC1 Badge:

From time to time I receive inquiries from around the world from Baur owners who are in need of replacement seals for their Baur roofs, both E21 TC1s and E30 TC2s.

Today I sent an inquiry in this regard to our resident Baur Guru, Jeroen Janssen of The Netherlands, who responded immediately with the following GOOD NEWS:  


Thank you, Jeroen! 
Today's inquiry, btw, came from our friend, Malcolm Reeson in Perth, Western Australia.  You may remember, Malcolm:  he has the ELECTRIC BAUR!!  READ ABOUT IT HERE:

SO THANK YOU, ALSO, MALCOLM REESON!

9/15/2012   Glass needed for 1973 BMW 2002 Baur Targa in Philly

I received the following email today from Chris I. in Philadelphia, PA. 

" i am chris in philly with the wrecked 2002 baur.
i need some parts to repair the car. i need
the driver side front triangle glass, the part that
would be a vent on a regular 2002. i also need
the driver side glass for the door. "



This is Chris' Baur after it was hit while parked on the street earlier this year

Another view.... this is why Chris needs the drivers side glass noted in his email.

This is Chris I. and his 2002 Baur Targa, at a happier moment.  I dont have the details, but I believe this pic was taken in Kansas a couple of years ago, while on an epic group journey.  Note that Chris is driving using the "landaulette' style:  Targa top on (keeping him in the shade), rear soft top open, allowing a 60 or 70 mph gale to blow through the Baur!  Only in a Baur!





Can you help put that big smile back on Chris' face?  Shoot me an email if you have the part(s) he needs.

BMW E30 Baur TC hood with main roof section in black. Removed from a 1986 325i TC Baur.
Great condition for being 26 years old with no rips, tears or splits in the hood at all. The rear screen is also undamaged though has gone a bit milky but you can still see through it.
The donor car until recently was stored in a barn on a farm so has not seen the road for years and as such the hood wants a good clean though is very presentable considering where its been for most of the last decade.
Its obviously very hard to describe a 26 year old hood accurately and everyone has different opinions on condition so why not come and have a look for yourself. If you are too far away I have lots of photos, please forward me an email address if you wish to see them.
I may split the hood from the roof section if its just the hood you need, open to sensible offers on this.
All parts from the car are available, please message with your part requirements.
Local collection is preferred but postage is not a problem, please get in touch for an international shipping quote, advertised cost is UK MAINLAND only, Highlands & Islands etc will cost more..
Lot's of BMW spare's available, feel free to ask if you need anything or why not take a look at my other listing's.
Call me on 07501 306792 to arrange a viewing or with any question's.
Paypal welcomed, all part's sent recorded delivery.

TC2 Baur found in a junkyard. Flyboyx salvaged the Baur top, etc. from it and is offering it for sale.


We are much indebted to robrez in the E30 bimmerforum for posting this link today. Wow! what a find!

Thank you robrez, Baurhunter of the Week!
Here is his post in bimmerforums.... followed by the Baur thread:
N.B. There are a lot more pictures in the thread below than what I have posted here, btw.

very rare E30 BAUR rescue roof retrofit. almost complete



ok, so i was wandering around the jy yesterday and came across a Baur e30 that some thoughtless tool turned in. as you know this kind of place will never sell you a complete car. it really makes me upset to see such a rare vehicle wind up in the crusher. Originally i pulled off the roof panel and a few pieces of proprietary hardware. last night i started thinking about this car kind of like the way my girlfriend looks at those dog rescue shelters. kinda want to save them all. anyway, i went back today and removed the entire roof area so it can be grafted onto another e30 coupe. as you can see by my sig, I have too many projects right now. if this doesn't sell, i was thinking down the road to fabricate it onto one of my ix's. as a result, i am not willing to separate any parts. all or nothing. i just want it to go to a good home where it is going to be put on a car and adored by its owner.

i know that not everyone finds a baur aesthetically pleasing, but they are awesome and they are very rare. not as pretty as an m3, but definitely much harder to come by. i could see this sort of project as something levent's shop might do. this top came off an 84 euro, but the good thing is that it can be made to fit any e30 coupe.

the setup is mostly complete. it is just missing two items: the driver's side quarter window was broken when i got to the car. also, the passenger side quarter window trim is missing. you will be able to see these defects in the photos below. i know of two e30 parts baur's a few hours west of here. i don't know if the guy is willing to sell parts off them, but at least it would be a start.

here comes the pix:

as you can see, all of the vinyl is really in excellent condition. it is dirty in the pix, but there are no rips, tears, or abrasions that i can see.



here is the vin if anyone with a carfax subscription feels like checking the history and posting it here. last digit is a 3.









the original convertible top vinyl is actually in good condition as well. the back window is gone as you can see. i think you could get away with just replacing the window for a while. if you decide to replace the entire thing, at least there is good fabric to make a pattern from.



here is the broken window mentioned above.



here is the missing trim piece on the pax side. i had removed this window yesterday and that is why it just looks like it was placed there because it was. also the horizontal piece of chrome trim that is hanging down is also in good condition. it fits into a channel in the bottom of the rubber that goes around the window. i didn't have time to put it back together before i shot the pix.



there is very minor surface rust on the lip that holds the back of the convertible top down. it would easily come off with a wire brush on an angle grinder. the package tray is in rough shape but it is complete and will be easy to use a pattern to make a new one. it is simply made from 1/8" mdf or particle board with a thin Berber carpet glued on the top.



the headliner is complete and in good condition. just like a cabrio removable hardtop, it is loose and will need to be reglued back into place.

there are two small holes in the roof panel headliner, but they are covered up by the frame rails when the top is mounted on the car.



yes, that was a german check panel. some stupid jackass tried to remove the front plastic sheet instead of pulling the entire panel. i know this because i found the front laying in the car in pieces









even the baur seat belts and the roof panel storage brackets are there. i included trunk hinges and torsion bars to make it as easy as possible to reinstall this in another car.





proprietary baur rear interior panels. obviously in black.





these are included too.



ok, price.....this stuff is so rare and hard to find. i don't even think there are any active users on this forum with a baur. i did a search to see what others were selling parts for and was not able to find a single thing. as i said before, i really want this to go to a good home. i would be proud to see this in a build thread for one of our fellow forum member's cars. its pretty hard to put a price on this, but considering that i have two days invested in driving to the yard and the better part of the day today cutting it off. also, i feel like they screwed me a little on the price by nickel and diming every little part on the assembly. the figure i have in mind is 1200.00. since i am advertising this on a national forum, i am willing to ship, but as you can imagine, i would prefer and give preference to a local pickup.

The seller, Kevin S., of Lake Forest CA contacted me today about a TC1 Baur that he has for sale on eBay for parts:
Baur for parts!

1979 323i Baur for parts
Item number: 270910726909
Here is the Ultimate Project Car! I have been the owner of this vehicle since it was imported back in 1985.The federal / DOT sticker is in the door jam. My ex girlfriend ran the car to hot one summer day and cracked the block - It has been garaged ever since. I have a replacement block and the original top end (see pictures). I basically have all that is needed to put this car back together. Little time and no energy to do it. The bad - The floor pan is rusted, dent on the passenger side door and the car has a salvage title. My bad on that when I bought it back from the insurance company. I was ingnorent at the time. The rest - it needs a lot of TLC to get her back on the road. This vehicle is worth a lot in just the parts.....Wheels with brand new tires at $300, the euro bumpers at $300, The recaro seats at $150, the 4 speed tranny and diff at $300, engine subframe at $100, the engine at $350 and finally the Baur Top at $ ? $ And so on and on - Again, I have all that is needed to put her back together, just no time or energy to do it. I will have this vehicle up for sale locally and by other means, so I will exercise the right to close the auction. I will expect a 50% pament via PayPal at the close of the aucten. The pick up is entirely upon the buyer in a timely manner. I truly hope that a collector / enthuist picks this car up and restores her.
Good luck bidding - Thanks

Lots of other pics on the eBay listing.

Also he has another E21 for sale on eBay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1981-...item3f138b185b
1981 BMW 323i E21
This is a very clean 31 year old car. It does hawever have a few signs of its age(see pictures) with some cosmetic rust. The major areas for rust concerns - the trunk, door sills and floor pan do not. It has a four speed manual tranny and yes I do have the matching 4th wheel. The tires are brand new Dunlops. Last year I spent over $500 taking it out of 'Non Op'. I have never smogged the vehicle. I was intending on restoring it but I have lost the energy and time to do so. I purchsed the car for over $5k some 6/7 years ago. The economy was good back then....right? My loss will be your gain - such as life ! She starts right up and runs very strong. This will be a great 323i project for the winner! I do have this vehicle up for sale locally and will reserve the right to close the auction. The car is being sold 'as is' with no return or warenty. I expect a payment of $500.00 at close of auction. The buyer is responsible for pick up at a timely manner. The remaining purchase cost to be paid at that time. Please feel free to contact me with any other questions. Thanks and good luck!

Request for Help from a Baur owner



I received this email today (2/1/2012) from Baur owner Matt, and I am posting it verbatim. Any help, suggestions, etc. greatly appreciated. Matt, btw, owns two Baurs, including this well-known one #917:
http://baurspotting.blogspot.com/201...-baur-917.html


"Tom,
My 323i TC has one of the latches that lets go of the removable hard portion of the top 'frozen'. I was driving today, and heard the hard top jostling - like it wasn't securely latched down. I noticed the passenger's side latch handle wasn't fully in the 'up' position, so I gave it a hard push, and it went 'up'. The jostling continued. When I got to work, I found that I couldn't pull the latch down. Putting some considerable force on it, it finally moved, but in a not-so-good sounding way. Now whatever position I put that latch into, it won't release that side of the top.
Could you post this for me to see if your readers have any suggestions?
Best,
Matthew"

"The part: It's 54210006051, the right side top latch. I'd also take a 54210006049, the left side top latch. If you could post it, I'd appreciate it!
