Vehicle Detail

I have a 1958 BMW Isetta 300 Export version for sale I had hoped to get the rejuvenation underway by now, but life happens. And that "happens" part has put me in a bad way and I need CASH FAST! My loss is your huge gain. I have other Isettas and 600s, this one MUST GO ASAP! CLEAR TITLE! Kept in heated facility. I bought this car because it is in nearly original condition, with as best I can tell, no major restoration attempts... We're talking original seat, window rubber, glass, interior panels, tires,... all of it, clean, almost pristine and mean. I don't mean at all to claim this car is perfect... It is not, but what it needs is more of a catch-up on routine and typical Isetta maintenance than a restoration. This baby drives... starts right up, no hesitation and drives well. Did I mention the brakes are already done... new lines, cylinders and master??? Did I mention it comes with a COMPLETE repair manual and a very, very rare ALL COLOR SCHEMATIC!?!? Fewer than 50 are known to exist on the planet! It needs shifter bushings and steering bushings. The sunroof also needs replacement and a new center bow. The car would want some paint work to be nearer to perfect, but probably not an entire paint job. If I was going to keep the car, I would at the least, also do a valve job and update it to the BMW R60 motorcycle valve train. If you are hunting for an Isetta, THIS IS THE ONE YOU WANT! You can take this one and fix a few minor things and drive the wheels off, or, you can take it as a premium candidate for a restoration and give it the works. Now is the time... make your garage happy and send my bill collectors packing! This will be a cash sale. 500.00 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT required from winning buyer within 24 hours of auction close. This will ALSO be a local sale, so I reserve the right to end the auction prematurely. PAYPAL REQUIRED I have a reserve price so that I don’t lose what I’ve spent on the car, other than that top dollar wins. SPECIAL OFFER TO THE WINNING BIDDER!! **** I HAVE BEEN BUYING PARTS FOR THE CAR BUT THEY ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS AUCTION! I WILL OFFER THEM TO THE BUYER AS A COMPLETELY SEPARATE DEAL. The parts I have acquired are: Steering Bushings, Shifter Bushings, Sunroof Bow, Sunroof Cloth, Pair of flex discs, Front and Rear Shocks, Air Intake Hose, A COMPLETE SET of ball bearings for the entire car, Interior (repro) Mirror, Original Exterior Mirror, Rear Tail Light Bezels, Cigarette Lighter, All body panel rubber and a few trinkety items are all on the list. Still needs a horn button. The value of these parts is in the 13-1400.00 neighborhood. These are all first quality parts bought from the most well known Isetta parts vendors.**** ********EXTRA SPECIAL OFFER TO THE WINNING BIDDER******* I have a rare, ORIGINAL Isetta dashboard available. It has been stripped of paint, repaired and is ready for the fitment of a radio. Comes with, glove box opening, radio opening, wiper switch, auxiliary power port, cigarette lighter, courtesy/map light and is ready for leading, paint and installation. This item alone, all reworked as it is, is worth no less than $500.00. It will also be offered to the winning buyer as a separate deal.
