Description
This stunning 1965 BMW 501, also known as the “Baroque Angel,” has been fully restored down to the finest details. Undergoing a thoroughly “bare metal” restoration in 2001 by skilled craftsmen, this is one of the most exceptional examples we’ve ever seen. Rated an impressive 61 out of 65 points by the BMW V8 Club Germany, this is a BMW that drives just as beautifully as it looks.
“Bare Metal” Restoration and Fantastic Details
During its restoration, this BMW was returned to its original factory condition as it would have appeared in 1965. The bodywork was stripped to bare metal and completely rebuilt, resulting in superb panel alignment and paint that gleams as if it were applied yesterday. This particular example is equipped with the correct original folding roof, further enhancing its charm. The chrome components are in excellent condition, contributing to the car’s sophisticated appearance.
The interior is equally impressive. Featuring premium materials and meticulous craftsmanship, it exudes timeless luxury. The seats have been reupholstered, the dashboard is beautifully detailed, and the retractable roof and plush carpeting add an extra touch of elegance. The high-quality restoration ensures that every detail of the interior is a feast for the eyes.
V8 Engine with Exceptional Driving Performance
The 2. 6-liter V8 engine in this BMW is a true engineering masterpiece, fully rebuilt during the restoration process. The result? An engine that runs smoothly, feels powerful, and delivers the unmistakable sound of a classic V8. There’s little more we need to say. The gearbox and chassis are also in excellent condition, making this BMW as delightful to drive as it is to admire.
Extensive Documentation and Original Details
This BMW comes with a comprehensive set of documentation, including photos of the restoration process and the original sales brochure. The documentation reflects the meticulous care and attention this car has received throughout its restoration and ownership, leaving no detail overlooked.
