Summary
This 1972 BMW Bavaria, an E3 sedan, features a four-speed manual transmission conversion from its original automatic, and is powered by a 3.0-liter straight-six. Recently recommissioned after five years in storage, it presents with a repainted black exterior over red leather, though it has some noted imperfections including non-functional door lock and marker light, slow rear windows, and a musty cabin with rodent damage. The five-digit odometer shows 72k miles, but total mileage is unknown due to rollover.
