You probably realize this by now, After you crank the engine over, the ignition switch on most German cars need to be turned backward to the off position to reset the switch. This feature keeps the driver from accidentally engaging the starter after the engine is running. Love your videos !

I've worked with restoring two like these. The bodies were made in one plant and then transported as bare metal shells to a different one for painting. That's why they rust so much. You have a very, very complete model. Worth tons of money as parts, restored about twice as much. Keep it and do a bare minimum to fix the rust, she'll last a lifetime.
ohhh yeah that makes sense. paint is the main protectant against rust for old cars, so leave enough time for an imperceptible oxide layer before painting, esp having it be exposed to all kinds of air in shipping, and yeah. thanks for explaining this!
I am not a mechanic. I am not a car person. I have no idea why but I LOVE these videos. You are quite a character and I love your explanations of what you're doing to bring these old cars back to life. I love the glee and fond reminisces in the comments below. It's great hearing those engines run again. Again don't ask me why, I have not the foggiest idea about cars. Please continue showing us your work on this car. I don't know what turbo means, but I just want to see that old thing get going again! Thanks and good work!!!!
My dad owned one of these back in the 80's I think, we found it in 2005 in a quarry, turn out it was sold to the owner two hands down from my dad... needless to say we bought it back, and it's still running to this day, family heirloom :D Also if you give those engines a bit of love they run and run and run... we overhauled the engine back in 2011 due to some compression issues after the car had almost 380.00 km on the engine, it's wild how good those old BMW are built, you can't find this these days
@@nothinghere7391 I dont know if its worth restoring Haha I think it would be good for something like making room for bigger tires but doing a nice job making it look clean going through making it ride higher cut the roof off put a cage in it with harnesses and try and get as much power out of that little engine as you can, Then send it
I absolutely want to see more. I would love to see it repaired / updated. I don't think it should be an "all original restoration," but it would be great to see the rust taken out, all the fluids changed, new brakes, painted, interior cleaned, etc. And then performance stuff later lol
This is the good era of BMW. And the I6 is a great motor as well. Definitely worth restoring or just tidying up and putting a new windscreen in. Got nice patina on it too.
Yeap, my bimmer was sitting for a decade in a garage. Until some guy bought it, replaced all fluids and battery and spark plugs and it started up. I daily drive mine and there is a few rust sport here and there but the bottom of the car is really good condition
That Bavaria would be so cool turbocharged, or just restored, maybe even just cleaned up a little, I have a Bavaria thats just like it, and have absolutely loved the driving experience, I highly recommend the e3 Bavaria for anyone that’s looking to get into classic bmws, it’s a very underrated platform
The Bavaria was bmws idea for an American market car, the Bavaria is the 2500 model chassis’s with the bigger 2.8l engine from the 2800cs. Bmw realized that the American market was more centered around hot rods instead of the luxury, so they put the big engine in their least luxurious trim model. To make a fast and affordable bmw, it has a top speed of 130mph and only costed 5000$! The Bavaria is the only bmw of the era that actually has a name, and it gets really confusing when you look at all of the different models of Bavaria’s or new six. The Bavaria was American market specific, and came with a 2.8 liter engine in 1971, then a 3.0 liter in 1972 to 1974. All other models of the new six are,( new six is the sedan, the numbers and letters symbolize the different models) these are the models in order, 2500,2800,3.0s,3.0si(si means fuel injection) 3.3l, and finally the 3.3li.
It’s kinda of stupid how bmw changed the name of the same car every two years. It makes parts confusing and annoying to find, but luckily people have finally come up with a system to classify the bmw new six, its now classified as the e3, also the Bavaria is the predecessor to the 7 series.
All old cast iron BMW 6 bangers are bulletproof, I've had a few and love them! A lot of people talk crap about the brand these days because a lot of their cars in the last 20 years have been of questionable quality and some have catastrophic durability issues. Their cars from the mid 90s and older are generally excellent however and definitely worth having at least once in your lifetime, they genuinely were drivers cars back then and their 6 cylinder engines are silky smooth and fun to drive with a manual transmission. I currently have a 1991 325i manual E36 sedan that I've had for 5 years now and she hasn't missed a beat, not fast but super fun around corners with some firmed up suspension and has an addictive engine note 👌
I have been binge watching all your Will it Run series videos since I found your channel a few days ago. I don't know much about cars and fixing them but gosh dangit I'm learning. This is some really cool stuff! Definitely would love to see this car again at some point. Sweet little whip.
This brings back memories. ❤ My GF’s dad owned the BMW dealership, so she was just as likely to show up in this as anything. I was the bad boy with my 70 Cuda. Thanks for the great videos 😍
Great to see a classic BM alive again! A few bugs to work out (the remaining wasps included), but she'll be cool. Unsticking the clutch should be fairly easy. I reckon the six-pot will do fine without a turbo with them Webers on, so find yourself a windscreen, give her a clean-up and have some fun with her!
I’m loving this will it start series, you are very education, entertaining, and nice to listen to I’d love to see more of this car for sure, take us through the restore process
Don't see many Bavarias around anymore. It was a US only model, in Europe they were sold as the 2500, 2800, etc. It was the precursor to the 5 series. Could be a fun car to drive around a bit assuming you can find a windshield. I had a '77 530i and some of the parts I had to get from Europe... Handling and ride on that car were great, the Bavaria should be similar.
In 1974 my father drove with us to the south of France in his 2500 BMW, I will never forget this trip because my mother bought a fringed sunshade which frayed my face all the way back to Germany.
I had an E28 sitting in my garage for 10 years without being run at all. A couple years ago, I decided to get it back on the road. Changed the oil, charged the battery.... and it started right up on the first try. It ran just like it did the day before it went into storage.
I'm a female micro scrapper from the UK and this was a banger of a recommendation from CZcams!!! My Grandad used to own a little village garage and never parted with things and your thumbnail brought back memories. I love this kind of thing and have joined you 👍look forward to the next one!!! (Oh and fixing it up would be amazing!!👌)
I had the Bavaria predecessor, the 2500. Great car, I’d traded my 69 2002 for the 2500. A bit challenging to keep the two solex carbs synced. Many memories when the guy pulled up next to me at a Montana restaurant stop and asked if it was a “British Motor Works”? Blasphemy!!!
i love your videos! they are so genuine no bs no like comment subscribe no fancy tools or anything just a real bloke having a go, cheers from australia!!! keep on keepin on GOD BLESS AMERICA
I had a 73 3.0s which is essentially the same car. It had a rod through the block when I bought it, so I put a used engine in it and drove it for a long time. It ran great and was fun to drive, but it did require frequent valve adjustments and carb adjustments to run it's best.
dude hell yeah! i love you for posting this! i absolutely love old bmws! id love to see more content on this old girl, especially throw a cheap turbo on it! im gonna be tryin to put a '80 back on the road after 20 years!
I would love to see this car again. That double Weber setup was pretty common on European cars of that era. You can get a decent amount of power out of it. There is a lot to work with on that car. I would like to see you bring her back around, and learn a little more about them in the process.
After living in the US for 5 years. Going back home to the UK blows my mind. I don't know how we even live with our tiny little cars and narrow country roads lol.

Very cool! Would definitely love to see it in another video! Where are y'all from? Got a heck of a neat dialect and a whole bunch of cars just laying around for the taken. I need to find me a place close to there
Ok, fine, you got me - subbed! ONLY because you drove it away, lol. Seriously though, I got sucked into a weird YT algorithm that includes these kinds of videos. So I binged all yours over the last few days. I am digging your skills and knowledge on these all. This one snagged me. Keep it up!
In a week or two hopefully waiting on a carb kit starter parts and a few other parts also trying to find some tires that are not extremely expensive or maybe a different set of wheels the brakes kinda work on the truck now also trying to get a steering wheel repair kit for it
@@jenningsmotorsports7554 I genuinely would love to see you continue to bring back that georgous beast alive. She is so certainly hungry to be turned back on. ;) You can just see it when she was smoking when you started her up. I cannot wait to see you when you manage to bring her back alive and fully functioning again on the road, seriously. Keep going bro, just keep going. Great video!
One of the nicest looking beamers produced imo, all she needs is a lick o paint and a few ancillaries and she'd make a real good project/run about car.
These arent valuable at least not here on the west coast. I saw them for sale in arizona a lot. Up here in the NW too. Even had one abandoned outside our work. Eventually it was hit by a semi and we were surprised it lasted as long as it did without being tagged. This definitely isnt worth whatever you need to put into it to restore it.
I've just found your channel and I find it extremely satisfying, it ticks some part in me that I don't even really understand why I like it but i do. For me what would seriously, exponentially increase my enjoyment is if you were more methodical. If you started with cleaning exterior thoroughly, then engine bay, then interior etc. It's not a logical suggestion, you are what you are and your method and expertise alone are impressive enough to watch, but from my point of view, if you want big views, then start to finish more methodical process,, there is nothing like you on youtube. Working on the inside before you have cleaned out all the old leaves is slightly stressful in a way I don't have words for. (Just for a bit of context, I am a very non ocd, practical carpenter, and mild car enthusiast, but when watching something else I become more picky.) Anyway insanely impressive work and good job. Cheers.
That body style from back then was gorgeous. My parents had a 1974 Bavaria.....great car. That generation culminated with the BMW 3.0 CSi....the most beautiful car BMW ever made. If you see one in silver with a red interior, you won't be able to look away.

Same just found him today, just binged watched like 4 of his videos with some beer👌 best way to end a day
just a question, once you've established the vehicles are still in a running condition, do you restore them? if so, will you please post some videos of that as well
I think he installs them in his yard.
I just found this channel and I’m already subscribing
I had one of these in 1976. Fun car to drive and bulletproof! Good project to see you in! Good luck!
Very cool! Would definitely love to see it in another video!
Where are y'all from? Got a heck of a neat dialect and a whole bunch of cars just laying around for the taken. I need to find me a place close to there
The plate said Arkansas.
@@Rutoenfit Yeah he’s said in a comment before he’s from arkansas
slap a turbo in her please, love the bavaria. Brings back memories of when my aunt would drive me and my brothers to the grandcanyon every summer
Man this is one of my dream cars. Crazy man love your videos
Ok, fine, you got me - subbed!
ONLY because you drove it away, lol. Seriously though, I got sucked into a weird YT algorithm that includes these kinds of videos. So I binged all yours over the last few days. I am digging your skills and knowledge on these all. This one snagged me. Keep it up!
When’s the next video on the 1929 pickup?
In a week or two hopefully waiting on a carb kit starter parts and a few other parts also trying to find some tires that are not extremely expensive or maybe a different set of wheels the brakes kinda work on the truck now also trying to get a steering wheel repair kit for it
@@jenningsmotorsports7554 can't wait
@@jenningsmotorsports7554 sweet looking forward to it…been watching quite a few of your videos, they are all really good!
@@jenningsmotorsports7554 I genuinely would love to see you continue to bring back that georgous beast alive. She is so certainly hungry to be turned back on. ;) You can just see it when she was smoking when you started her up. I cannot wait to see you when you manage to bring her back alive and fully functioning again on the road, seriously. Keep going bro, just keep going. Great video!
One of the nicest looking beamers produced imo, all she needs is a lick o paint and a few ancillaries and she'd make a real good project/run about car.
Forget all the turbo talk, sell the car to someone who will restore it...
It’s his car, let him do what he wants with it.
It’s Ok to have an opinion, right?
Nah its more fun patena and used than sat in a garage doing nothing
These arent valuable at least not here on the west coast. I saw them for sale in arizona a lot. Up here in the NW too.
Even had one abandoned outside our work. Eventually it was hit by a semi and we were surprised it lasted as long as it did without being tagged.
This definitely isnt worth whatever you need to put into it to restore it.
Why? Its way cooler when it looks all beat up and old
Keep it up! I want to see more of this car and the video you posted last week!
BMW straight 6 with twin Webers? That's European royalty.! Your videos are cool af. Respect from Scotland!
Got to see this one again,fine job and thanks for sharing.
Always liked these, nice to bring it back properly..
One of the more under rated Chanel’s on CZcams
I've just found your channel and I find it extremely satisfying, it ticks some part in me that I don't even really understand why I like it but i do.
For me what would seriously, exponentially increase my enjoyment is if you were more methodical. If you started with cleaning exterior thoroughly, then engine bay, then interior etc. It's not a logical suggestion, you are what you are and your method and expertise alone are impressive enough to watch, but from my point of view, if you want big views, then start to finish more methodical process,, there is nothing like you on youtube. Working on the inside before you have cleaned out all the old leaves is slightly stressful in a way I don't have words for. (Just for a bit of context, I am a very non ocd, practical carpenter, and mild car enthusiast, but when watching something else I become more picky.) Anyway insanely impressive work and good job. Cheers.
Im new to this channel and i already enjoy ur content hope to see more . Also subscribed cant wait to see u hit 100k
That body style from back then was gorgeous. My parents had a 1974 Bavaria.....great car. That generation culminated with the BMW 3.0 CSi....the most beautiful car BMW ever made. If you see one in silver with a red interior, you won't be able to look away.
Loved this! Just had to subscribe. I know very little about cars (only enough to know what I should not do), and seriously love your approach to a problem. My favorite statement from this video... at 19:20 "Never put the gas in your vehicle"
Hope to see many more such videos!
Definitely want to see more of this car!!
crazy that you were able to start it and drive it so easy. i’d like to see more of it!
