Been a while since I regularly checked the forums Kris, but great to see this is almost there!

 

Do you still have your Schwarz car? (I may have missed a story here....)

Wow-  kind of late to the party. Kris' tii sold via BaT a while back. I've seen pics of it surface on Instagram.

I've been out of the game for far too long! I'll have to dig up the old BaT listing.

Yes, and evidently it had returned to the Bay Area for a spell, as Fantasy Junction in Emeryville brokered it about a yr ago:

Unfortunately, I didn't have time to swing by and see it in person before it sold.

Indeed I did sell the tii a few years ago thinking I was close to finishing the M2 ;) and it wouldn't get the same attention/drive time.  The buyer was in the Silicon Valley area and apparently resold it owing to a divorce.  Would love to see a pic if someone sees it.

Here's a vid of the M2 making some great noise during a dyno tune.  The hand on the TB's is because we're not pulling quite enough throttle cable with the current pedal configuration.

I read all of this yesterday after Ray sent me the Instagram video of y'all blasting down the street.... whoa, Nellie.  Congrats on finally getting this far and can see the end in sight.  

 

First off.... love the car and all you've done; very stealthy. The Alpina bits are very choice, I missed out on some inverted struts a couple years ago and have kicked myself ever since.

 

Any chance you have some more details/pictures on the exhaust system?

 

Great car, hope to see it one day,

    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
