I learned about the discovery last year. It was only 15 miles from me! I worked most of my life in the town were it was found. It sold at auction in unrestored condition near $500k.

I didn't know Wayne C. was the buyer of if sold it at the auction and just saw this episode the other night.

No telling how many times I drove by the car while working in the same town. There use to be a monthly cruise-in, lots of car people, etc....and I never heard a word about it. I guess he wanted to keep it quite.

Quite what?


In the next town over, there is a shop that has at least one BMW M1 stored. Can see it's nose in the window. No idea if it is for sale, not that I could afford it.

I watched the show last night on the DVR. The piece on Steve Jobs' BMW was interesting too.
