69 Race Car


Recommended Posts

Do you guys know this car? I am not so sure about the price (especially since i would need a truck and trailer to pull it...) but i must say it grabs my interest. I am pondering a well sorted track car.

This car has been for sale for a pretty long time (years) ..... which is curious.  To answer your question directly, no personal knowledge of this one.  I will say it looks pretty well sorted, put together/executed.  Two CR 5sp trans are worth 6k along (or thereabouts).  Based on what I see it would be really (really) hard to duplicate for that number.  A lot depends on what you want to run it in, rules are all different everywhere.  Peersonally, I think it is a good looking track car with period enhancements.

Horsepower: 200@Rear Tires

Induction: MFI Slide Throttle

If that was the stuff 'back in the day' then

the Alfas and the Datsuns wouldn't have had

a chance in hell in the Trans Am.

I'm not familiar with period rules from that era for Trans-Am, IMSA, GTU etc.,though I know they were different.  Jeff Hecox knows more about this from when he was racing  his o2 in the Historic Trans-Am races.  I wouldn't be surprised if slide throttle injection was allowed in IMSA races (and probably was)....see below for more than you probably wanted to know about IMSA rules.  I don't recall Datsun's ever running on anything other than big carburettors, Alfa's though (GTAM) ran on slide throttle spica injection.  In 1974 Miller and Norburn was running their #66 BmW 2oo2 with a Schnitzer twin cam in some of the Camel GT races.....the whole rules thing is a slippery slope = never could find anything that allowed (or referenced) my car running a rear mounted radiator, yet they did so clearly it was allowed (although it didn't work out so well.....)

    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
