FEELER 1600-2002 "COLORS" Print - Input Please


RayC911

Recommended Posts

The original "colors" print has been NLA forever and I've never even seen one here or on ebay for sale. I've been thinking of redoing it for a while now so I had custom artwork made and I'm very happy with the way the it came out. The poster would have 30 cars so that's the limit for the colors. I've excluded the rarer colors, mostly from the 1502s. Below is the list I've come up with. Let me know if any of the names are mis-spelled or if you have a color you would like added. Also, I'll be calling the print something else, maybe "Patina" or "Shades". I'm not 100% sure if there are still any demand so feedback is appreciated. If I do not do the print, I may use the art for a tee another day. thanks for the input

i corrected the "Umlaute" - mostly ü's and deleted the "t" in Schwarz - oh and the Atlantikblau missed a t

Just an FYI; if you have trouble using the umlauted characters, putting an "e" afterwards (i.e. ue instead of ü) is an equivalent. Also, if you're sticking with traditional German spelling, the end of words with "ss" would use a character called the esset (looks like a b -> ß, ex. Alpinweiß)

Thanks!

Will there be a Legend so we know which color is shown on each car. I suspect some on this board could identify each car without a mistake, but I'm a little fuzzy on some of the more esoteric colors.

Bob,

I'm going to have the names under each colored 02. The challenge will be making the colors as close to the original as much as possible. Monitors and actual print colors varies. I never realized there were so many colors and in very similar shades, especially the blues.

It's not as easy as that anymore, thanks to german polititians and schoolteachers. Theres was a "Rechtschreibreform" that should have made things easier but fucked the whole thing up a bit. Mostly regarding word combinations and foreign words, that found their way into the regular german vocbulary. consensus now is, that the old and the new writing is correct :screwy:

Fact is, that the double-s stays a ss when the sound that's before the ss is short, like in "dass" - the "a" is short. But like in weeeiiiß it's a long "letter" - weiss however still is correct and mostly used nowadays. But the historic correct writing is Alpinweiß, you're correct there. :)

    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
