This from a dope who admits to buying *two* BMWs?

One of my BMW's cost me three hundred, the other seven. Drove them
both to death. The mechanicals held up, but not the fenders. A 66 1600
and a 68 1800. They both handled about as well as a new one today.

Having a grand tied up in two BMWs sounds like fun. Buying two new BMWs
at modern prices is...stupid.

The BMW of beaters is, of course, a BMW. I bought a 57 Volvo for $100.
It had been painted flat black with a brush, and had a channel iron
front bumper. City busses backed down when they saw me coming. Good
cheap beaters are getting harder to find.
