The car had a body-off restoration and won Best Postwar BMW at Hilton Head in 2011. It has had numerous hours spent on the body and paint, and an additional $40,000 was spent replating the chrome. The engine and ancillaries were fully rebuilt. The red exterior is complemented by a tan cloth top and tan leather upholstery with red piping. The English leather interior nicely complements the bright exterior, and the work is exceptionally presented, all the way down to the Wilton wool carpeting. With fine details done to perfection and apologizing for nothing, this BMW 503 is remarkably complete and even includes the original tool box with its tool set.
