A Short Video...

I helped my girlfriend with an assignment for her film class, and here is what we got after the first day of filming. We had to cut it short because of a lack of actors (I seem to lack friends who are willing to act for free, so I only had my father and another friend this day, but only my father made the cut as my friend had to leave for work on a moments notice).

Sorry for the wonderful site of me in my bedroom... haha. The cool footage of the '02 makes up for it at least. Area is right around my house in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Yes, I daily drive this car in the city. Sorry about the door card being off... it's a work in progress :)

Great video. Good looking car. You have not put your new door panels on yet? :-)

I've been dying to! But I have to wait for sound deadener to come in as well as new felt window strips. Going to make a write up on deadening the doors and plasti-dipping the linkages so they don't rattle :)

Looking forward to part 2. My deaf wife tells me she thinks your dad is deaf, although not using ASL, more "family sign", which is mainly what I know.

Did your girlfriend storyboard everything first?

That's interesting! He's not deaf, but we were signing because the film is silent.

My girlfriend had a plan but it got a bit derailed. The idea is that people keep mistaking my car for a taxi and at first I find it annoying, but then I decide to use it to my advantage and start accepting peoples money.

Car was orginally bronze, though it may have been siennabraun. With a blue interior, yuck. I'm a big fan of the yellow, but will eventually be repainting golf yellow to have a factory color.

    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
