Vehicle Detail

The Rauch Double Headlight Bucket is one of the three holy grails of BMW collecting (the other two being the Munch Front Brake & a Hoske ISDT type high exhaust). I got this early Rauch bucket from Europe while I was collecting parts for a special BMW project that I had planned. Included with this sale is an original VDO tachometer. Unlike most full size tachs that you see for sale, this VDO was born as a tach (most are converted speedometers). It's marked with a 4:1 ratio on back. It will need a new glass & trim ring, but otherwise it appears to be in nice shape. As I mentioned above, this is an early style Racuh bucket, with the dished underside. That would make it correct for an R68 or R69. The R69S did not have a dished underside - but this unit can certainly be used on any 1953-69 twin if you wish. The ignition switch tabs in the bucket are in great shape, and ready to accept your switch. I had this headlight set aside for a someday project, but I don't think that day is ever going to come - so I have decided to sell it. Please ask all questions before bidding. Payment by Check or Bank Transfer only. Postage additional. Overseas bidders are welcome. See my other auctions for additional rare parts and holy grails! Good luck bidding!
