Drivers

The SoCal Vintage BMW Malibu/Mulholland Drive to West Hills is coming up two weeks from today on Saturday June 18, at 9AM - we'll leave as close to that time as possible, so make sure you're there earlier to sign off on the waiver sheet and get driving instructions at the driver's meeting. The meet up point is the Vons parking lot at Pacific Coast Highway and Sunset Blvd in Pacific Palisades
.

Here's the route - we've added a Moorpark/Simi Valley section this year to come back through Box Canyon to avoid the 101 (although we're trading driving the 23 and 118 a bit for that). It should be an even better drive than the great one it's always been. Here's the route - get really familiar with it before the drive!!

Since Marc at BWS is generous enough to provide lunch for all the drivers, please RSVP if you've not done so already. Please do this as soon as possible so we can get an accurate headcount.

Thanks!
John & Jeff

Since I still don't have a car of my own just yet.  I participated in the drive by hanging out at the Box Canyon junction to take some pics as the guys came by.  I hung out a couple of hours talking cars and such with Original Owner.  When the group did show up they were gone in a FLASH !!  Turns out that half the guys got lost and took the short way to lunch, guess they were hungry :)

 

Anyways here are a few pics that I liked

Doug asked if I happened to have a picture of his car.  I just happen to have one.

    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
