The Beginning
The end goal is a M20 powered 2002. Square tail, turbo flares and fenders. Not a restoration by any means, but a recreation. I would love to someday add a turbo to the M20.
Color is still up in the air, although I must admit lately I have been leaning towards LSB.
My car ADD is well documented, but in a seemingly futile attempt to find a car that can keep my attention for more than a couple months I have gone back in time, way back. I picked up not one, but two BMW 2002's thanks to a little help from a friend.
While it started out as a low budget purchase, ($500 for both cars) I'm sure that the whole restoration will be much closer to the $10,000 mark. Luckily I'm in no hurry to get it done. I plan on spending the next year or two auto geeking out about every single little detail of the car, and what I want to do with it. The green car shown below is going to the crusher now that we got all the good parts off of it. I'm now in the process of starting to strip the yellow one down to a rolling shell and then I'll save my pennies to ship it off for body work and a paint job. Any votes on what color to do it?
If I get on the ball enough I'll be documenting the whole process here. Stay tuned....
