1971 BMW 2002 in San Jose, CA

Recommended Posts

Year:: 1971


Make:: BMW


Model:: 2002


Price:: 3000.00


Location: : San Jose, CA

I saw this car on Craigslist and thought I would pass it along.  A 1971 BMW 2002 in Schwartz? with Tobacco interior, reasonably complete.  I can't really tell what color it is based on the photos.  Black seats are from a newer model, speaker holes in door cards, original carpet, homemade shorty wooden center console, original Solex 1 barrel carb.  Needs some love, but worth a look.

 

NM/NA,

Aw they cut the door cards, that's unfortunate. Nice to know there are $3K '02s still available.

I saw this car in person. It was at a local auction in my area so I headed over to check it out. Mannnn was that thing rusty. I think starting price on it was $1000 at the auction, I highly doubt it went for more then $2k, infact I'm suprised someone bought it! The engine bay is the cars original color, red.

Is it California rusty or East Coast rusty? 2 different kinds of rust.

Floor boards need to be cut out, needs a new hood, two fenders (and God knows what's under that), and the car was hit in the rear so the drivers side taillight is in at an angle from a poor repair job. Trust me, If I didn't even want to pay $1000 for this thing there was a reason. Good car for parts possibly but not restoration, especially being here in CA where you can find a much much better starting point.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
