Pre-War 1939 BMW 327 Cabriolet with Beautiful Nut and Bolt Restoration
This 1938 BMW 327 Cabriolet just finished a 10 year nut and bolt restoration by the Paterek Brothers and is the perfect car for pre-war rallies and touring. Grey with burgundy interior. All chrome was newly replated. All new leather interior with Wilton wool carpets and 135 hammer pleat stitching in each door panel. Jim Kraus, who does pebble beach winning cars, was the top and headliner. Recently serviced, the engine was cleaned and resealed. The carburetors were done by Joe Curto. The engine runs strong and the car drives great. One of BMW’s most celebrated pre-war automobiles. Originally launched by BMW in 1937, the famous 327’s first iteration was the sleek and sensual cabriolet. Though the body was supplied by coachbuilder Autenrieth in Darmstadt, the entirety of the 327 was put together at the Eisenach factory. The ashwood frame was combined with the straight-six engine previously seen on the preceding 326—though this new model produced an additional 5 horsepower and reached top speeds of 125 km/h. This particular 327 Cabriolet is offered at a fraction of the cost of the restoration.
