LOL! Looks like it barely fit on the trailer. I keep mine on the upper level of a 4 post lift, and it barely fits. I have to be careful running it onto the ramps so I don't miss them.

 

Can't wait to see your progress with the car. Keep us posted.

This just in from Munich:

 

"The BMW 700 Sport VIN 194726 was manufactured on November 10th, 1961 and delivered on November 27th, 1961 to the importer BMW Automobile Parts in West New York, N.J. The original colour was Spanischrot."

 

Anyone have a paint code for 'Spanischrot'?

Not quite in the PA neighborhood, but, if they were out here we'd be using them.

    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.

    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
