1938 BMW 327/28 Cabriolet. The Normans purchased this car in 1997. At that time it was a light yellow color with a white top. The top leaked so was not in the up-position often. After several year of enjoyable driving around the country in rallies, tours, and plain old wandering around Washington it was decided to upgrade the 327/28 body with renewed exterior, fenders, doors, hood and new roof material. The car was improved by Dave Beddows of Canada who then mentioned the driver's door was ready to fall off. Dave brought Jelly Bean Auto Crafters of Surrey, B.C. into the project for a total restoration of the 327/28. Since factory pieces were no longer available, the hood, firewall, lower side sections, 30% of the front fenders and 80% of the rear fenders were fabricated from scratch. The trim, knobs, instruments and bushings were remanufactured. Owners: Steve and Annie Norman, Edmonds, WA. Photographed at the Pacific Northwest Concours d'Elegance held September 7, 2014.
