72 2002 tii fs/ft

Yep, looks like a '72 model, despite the '73-only front bumper overriders.  Agave green.  Just curious, what's the VIN?  It's stamped into the chassis on the right front inner fender, near the hood hold-down, and it's stamped into a metal VIN tag riveted to the right front inner fender just aft of the right strut upper mount.  If it was quite early, e.g., 2760001 through 2760400-ish (all manufactured in 1971), it might be more attractive for restoration.  It's bad, but rustier cars have been restored -- albeit by braver souls than I!

 

I don't know that it will make the car easier to sell or more valuable, given its rough condition, but if you email the VIN to BMW Archives, requesting their data on the car (info.grouparchiv@bmwgroup.com), you will receive back, at no cost, the manufacturing date, original color, sub-model, and market.  If you post that here, all the "non-believers" will then realize it's a bona fide factory tii!

 

Good luck with your sale,

 

Steve

    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
