Tim, The sticker on the front bumper is from McClellan AFB, CA - 1999. I leave it there for historical purposes.The original owner was USAF and had it shipped new from W. Germany in 1967. I purchased it from a disgruntled flipper who bought from the OO's nephew last Spring. It had a disfunctional automatic transmission and wasted front struts. Additional detail and mechanical work has been done since this photo was taken last Summer. I'll post more pics this Spring. Regards

Yes guys, one does get attached to them. The Norfolk 2000 has a part of the original bumper with 40 years of base stickers stacked one upon the other, including a Ford Island, HI Ferry pass. It adds to the one owner history. How did you get the picture to show with the posting? Thanks.

Okay

Over the last year, I have gone from none to 1 to 3 to 2 and now finally back to 1 NK

This one got here in November of 2010

Photobucket

But after months of work fixing rust on it, Eric shows up with two nice Turf CA shells, and so suddenly I had 3

So one had to go, so the still plenty of rust Chamonix, gave up its nose, fenders and other salvageable stuff and went to the crusher, it was so bad, Al did not want it! Back down to 2

Photobucket

Had to pick which CA shell to work on, one had been whacked in the nose hard but otherwise was really nice, and the other had a bunch of small issues. So I chose the former to begin and after getting the nose transplant done, that is the route I decided to go

Sam, like me always wanted one and I needed it to go so Sam got the other one and has it in storage in TN now

I am hoping to have ours ready for Vintage. It will have 2 liter motor, side drafts, 5 speed, big brakes and a Vintage AC unit and a fine set of Esty carpets. Cruisin in style will Eileen be.

The BMW 2000 tilux VIN 1451152 was manufactured on October 25th, 1966 and delivered on October 31st, 1966 to the BMW importer Hoffman Motors Corp. in New York City. The original colour was Chamonix, paint code 085.

I have owned it since 2007 - Road worthy but am slowely improving. My money keeps going into the 2002 UGH.

John Barlow owned this car and bought it from Tim Bowser (?) who found it in front of a wrecking yard. He built the engine and got it on the road

TI/SA 995107 Purchased in 1988 in Santa Barbara California. Upgraded 390 LSD, 28 mm F/R sway bars, better euro CR 5 speed gearbox, custom header, Campagnolo and period TI/SA steel wheels, MSD igniton, fresh 2 liter motor with Carrillo rods etc, old beaten to death motor set aside in garage. Soon to be repainted original bristol grey, get dash pad installed etc. I got my first ride in a TI/SA when I was 4 years old, in 1965. I have seen only 8 in the sheet metal/flesh in my 45 years of TI/SA consciousness. My first car was a red BMW 1800 with all TILUX guts and 40 mm webers I got from my Dad in 1978. Peter

    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
