My New Project (slightly OT)
Hi guys,
I haven't been frequenting this board much in the past month or so...mostly because i found this gem that i've been learning about. I have to share it with you. Driving it makes me appreciate the E55 so much more & vice versa.

It was a 1 owner, local car, with 68,500 original miles on it, original paint, original everything. I know the guy who had it & he gave me a ridiculous deal on it....because he knows how well it will be cared for.

Here it is...a 1969 280S...........

HOLY HELL!

I mean, I don't know the going rate for such a vehicle, but I would think that is an incredible deal.
