Documenting the restoration of a 1960 BMW 700 Sport Coupe done in our garage. A full nut and bolt rebuild from the ground up. The plan is to make a custom rally car drawing on inspiration from the 700 RS, the 700 rennsport and the Willi Martini prepped race cars.

Mirrors
I wanted to get some side mirrors that looked like the Talbot ones used on the Rennsport and Martini cars(and many other european sports and race cars of that day). I found some replicas with a removable style base at a Porsche parts mailorder place. I also got an interior rear view out of a 356 cause it had that same bullet style leading edge. Plus its bigger and only has a single mounting bolt to allow me remove the sun visors in a really clean fashion at the same time.
