If the VIN listed is correct, 1661996, this car is a bona fide 1968 model year 2002, i.e., manufactured before September 1968:

That makes it rare.  I'm not saying it's easily restorable.  As a matter of fact, I'm not even saying its restorable.  And I'm certainly not opining on the $2,000 Buy-It-Now price.  I'm just saying it's from that initial short year of 2002 production, and there are not many of these left.  I'm guessing it originally was a Granada car, with much of that remaining.  The list of included parts suggests it might still have a long-neck differential, albeit not mounted. And with two rusty engines, you've got twice as many chances to have an original one!

 

Here's a thread on the 1968 model VIN's:

    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
