Color: Yellow History Chassis no.2211373 was manufactured in late 1971, sold to Schnitzer and delivered on Driven by the young Alan Peltier and Jean Xhenceval
the car finished joint sixth, the highest placed BMW in that 1972
championship (against the full works Ford Capri team whose drivers
included Sir Jackie Stewart). When Poppa bought Alan the 1973 ex-works CSL of
Amon/Stuck for the 1974 season, the old car like the new one was
liveried up in the blue of Gitanes cigarettes, as the spare car,
with the same "works arches" and Aeroset. In 1975 the old car was given to Serge Power (in
lieu of payment?) who had been Precision Liegeoises main race
mechanic from 1972-1975. It was then sold on to Raymond Raus for the 1976
season, and "dumbed down" accordingly with wet sump, four speed
box,"eyebrow" arches, and painted red with black aeroset. It was Rallycrossed a couple of times by Huug van Es in Holland !! When accquired by Zaprace in 2005 it was still full of Zanvoort sand! and on the same slicks it raced on. Too hot to rot - the car is in superb condition and
we have restored it back to its powerful, semi-dry-sump, five speed
version of 1973. Every panel is original yellow (1971) except nose
which is blue (1974) and the changed wings which are red (1976). The Belgium Racing Gp2 BMW CSL 1972-1977 1972.

Special features of the Schnitzer Peltier CSL 22 11 373 Engine: Original (early 1973) 3.3ltr short stroke
"Works Schnitzer" type engine The cam is a full 330deg hardened racecam. Valves are BIG and sculpted, fed by an original Schnitzer magalloy slide system with a racecammed injection pump. Crank and rods are lightened and balanced of course. Oil catch tank has been replicated by zaprace using Serges dimensions and capacity, and with much reference to early photos of Schnitzer coupes, and mounted in the correct place. The steering box is a "quickturn racebox". The
Gearbox is a four-speed with a double jointed propshaft. It has adjustable alloy front suspension top mounts
(Alpina-Schnitzer-type) and a large dia.antirollbar (swaybar) with
adjustable links and alloy mounting blocks. The rear suspension features strengthened
rosejointed top mounts and a beefed up rear antiroll bar with nylon
mounts and adjustable links. Calipers front and rear are period Lockheed F1, slightly modified by Gulielmi Motorsport to accept modern pads but the original BMW/Porsche discs have had to be replaced by modern discs and alloy bells for synergy of materials. Original (12.25" x 15" fronts and 13" x 15" rears) Schnitzer Electra magalloy wheels have been crack-tested and kept for wets, and for slicks we have period Compomotive cross-spoke centres with 16"BBS rims. (12.5"x16" fronts and 13.5" x16"rears) The original Corbeau GT seat and belts have of course been replaced but carefully saved, and also Alains original Fire-extinguisher! The rear floor has raised sections either side of the tunnel for the original oil coolers (no longer needed - who is ever going to force these old girls to do a 24 hr race again?) The original black headlining is still in, as are the door panels c/w long distance kneepad and ashtrays! Even the door hinges are alloy... The original alluminium side exhaust pipes are
restored, and a nice heavy 96 decibel system made for UK RESULTS(Known): ETCC 1972 - "BMW Belgium/Precision Liegeoise" -
