I like it. Sorry for the ****** goof up. My dad had a 40 somthing wagon when I was born. I have seen pics of it with me as a baby and I'm now almost 60 so that was many moons ago. Your looks to be in pretty good shape. What are your plans for it, if I might ask?

What are the ****** axle widths. If they are similar to an XJ then a 87 XJ will have a D44 rear. And the early Broncos I think hava a D44 front but those are different bolt patterns. I have heard of ppl using the axles from an IH Scout to swap under a Jeep so that they are F/R D44s and the same bolt pattern. You can research those possibilities. I think the Scout has a narrower track than the XJ does.

No it wasn't in my box of BMW junk where I thought it would be. Thats why I found you the link to where it came from. See post #23. I had a Weber carb on my '76 BMW coupe. It changed dramatically with that carb. I did find a old weber carb but it is in sad shape and will need a rebuild before it is any good.
