Doesn't strike me as a "drop everything" car. Looked at the pics, e-mailed for contact, but as a keeper, it doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Too much rust. Non-fatal, but still, too much rust. And, no photos of the undercarriage, so there's only going to be more. Unless you do your own welding and paint -- and I don't -- , I don't see how you wouldn't be upside-down (financially) in a heartbeat. As a flipper, I suppose I could get those god-awful white lettered tires off it, booge the nose so the hood will close, put kidneys in the middle, put trim on it, put it on my lift, photograph the living snot out of it, and sell it on eBay (after yanking the LSD and 5-speed and putting them in my car)... or just sit back and let it find a different buyer. And Marshfield VT is 200 miles from me anyway.

I noticed the tii on BaT this morning but it does look rough. Will look at the ad later.

I'd prefer the nice early Mini with larger engine and 5-speed and Superlite/Minilte wheels!

I saw that mini as well. I used to live about 10 mins from Castaic. I would love to have that car!

    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
