for sale FS: Rare and Unobtanium early 1600 parts - 1966-1968

bmw_jeff · September 4, 2015

These are some of my very rare '67 1600 parts, I will be selling a few more later as well. The wheel beauty rings were a factory accessory in 1966-1968, paired with the standard hubcaps. They are made of very thin aluminum and seem to bend if you even stare at them wrong LOL. Thus few have survived. Probably the 2nd hardest item to locate when restoring a 1600. It took me 6 years to acquire a spare set. This set is in decent shape and looks better on the car than off, but they can be repaired/restored like new by a metal shop. Each has a couple dings and dents, but they are straight and fit nicely on the standard 13" steel wheels. Included a pic of them on my car before for reference, with this actual set installed.

All parts not including shipping costs...

Set of 4 BMW accessory "Beauty Rings" for 1600. As described above. $200/set, will not sell individually.

***SOLD***Interior mirror base/stalk. Only on 66/67 cars. Made of solid aluminum it's like a piece of artwork. Very rare. You can use a standard 68-72 style 2002 mirror with this, the ball joint is the same as the later glass assemblies. It just pops on. It is missing the adjuster tab screw (pic on car to see what I mean) Pic of one in my car for reference. $50

****SOLD****Steering column cover (metal), 66-67 cars only. Nice and straight, no dents. Just needs some spray paint. Has 3 of 4 original assembly bolts in it still. Converting to a Euro dash? You need this. $40

(2) early all-chrome passenger door handles (no driver side sorry). In good shape not perfect. $20/each

NEW (remanufactured) 1600 Bosch distributer. I don't know the model off had, but it is correct for my 67 1600 and up to 68 from my research, 69+ was different. It did get some discoloration on the body being stored in my garage over the years, but it is new internally. $120
