"on The Road Again" Almost..,

Recommended Posts

Preface- I lack the technical knowledge to detail the specs. Korman is much better than I am. As you know and have told me, "IT IS NOT CHEAP AND IT COSTS TOP DOLLAR"

It's on the lift, and being installed. The initial test drives should happen by next week. No track, no racing, no gymkhana may equal NO FUN to some, but my plan is simply to cruise the country side and show off my new motor.

Same 5 year old Paint Job for now. Not ready to show the car yet. I just want to drive it.

First views of new Korman motor in the engine bay.

Congrats! Looking forward to hearing it run .... but I do have a suggestion.  Rather than start a new thread every time you have an update it would be much more pleasant to watch the progress via a single blog in the "blog archive" or new "blog" sections.

    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
