For Sale at Auction: 1938 BMW 328 in Scottsdale, Arizona

Vehicle Description

This 1938 BMW 328 Roadster is powered by a 2.0-liter inline-six engine paired with a manual transmission and is constructed entirely of prewar BMW components. The car was owned and actively campaigned for many years by Ernest Weil, with documented participation in events including the Monterey Historics, Lime Rock Park, the Colorado Grand, and the Mille Miglia Storica. During Weil's ownership, the car received carefully executed, fully reversible modifications to improve reliability and on-track performance, including custom cast aluminum knock-off wheels, reinforced rear-end internals, and a fully synchronized gearbox conversion utilizing a fabricated adapter plate and aircraft-grade aluminum mounting components without permanent alteration to original parts. Since 2006, the car has undergone extensive mechanical restoration, including a complete engine rebuild to Bristol D2 specification, rebuilt carburetors and transmission, rebuilt front suspension, replacement wiring harness, new master cylinder, and comprehensive servicing of the fueling, cooling, charging, and electrical systems, with mechanical work performed by Phil Reilly & Co. The car is accompanied by extensive documentation and a substantial spares package that includes multiple gearboxes, differential assemblies, wheels, drivetrain components, suspension parts, and service records supporting continued eligibility for vintage touring and competition events.
