Not mine... thinking about buying it, though.

Here's what I know:
1972 2002 (not tii) w/ 1984 BMW 320i(?) engine
4-speed
Has brake "issue"... maybe a bum caliper(s)?
Seller has front bumper and missing chrome trim pieces
"no rust"

I would really appreciate any feedback...

I paid $1500 for mine and that 02 looks better!! If the biggest deal is the brakes, caliper rebuild kits are $15 from Arizona Autohaus. If the engine is from an 84 BMW its from a E30 318i. I say jump on it!

BUY IT! BUY IT! BUY IT! Other thing I like about the car is Blue Lic plate still.

if thats the same car Tujung, CA stay away from it. Has a lot of cancer. The rear window has rot all the way through, spare wheel well, and under the car. If this is the same lady name JODY then I suggest not to. In Cali we can find others with less headaches.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. It is the one in Tujung... lots of cancer, huh? Doesn't sound promising. Did you happen to drive the car, Draco02?

Those pic are nice, but don't provide critical information re: "Rust-free" moniker.

pedal box?

rocker panels?

wheel wells?

spare tire well?

front frame box sections?

lower part of front apron under the battery looks as if it's been rusted.

Need some pics like this to be sure:
