Rust / Sheet Metal Work....Seattle


jackwalsh11

Recommended Posts

Hey all,

 

I just bought my third 2002 and first roundie but she needs some decently serious sheet metal work. I was hoping to see if anyone knows of any place in the greater Seattle to talk to. The famous Patrick O'Neill pointed me towards EuroTech Body Werkes but mentioned it is high end work. I am not looking to restore the car to show car levels but more so to get rid of some rust issues in the engine bay and some filling on the sides of the car. 

 

I am replacing the hood and front air dam from Ireland Engineering. 

 

Anything helps y'all!

Hey Jack,

 

I'm not sure I'm going to be much help.  Part of the reason I asked was that I'm also looking for a body guy.  I've also been told to go to Eurotech and talk to Mark (I think he's the owner) but am curious if there's another place around.  A buddy of mine had his 911 duck fin resprayed there as well as his S4 Avant front bumper repaired.  I've seen the work first hand and it looks the part.  I'll likely go there as I know that his daughter drives a colorado orange 2002 and he has done work on her car a few times.  So it sounds like he's familiar with 2002s.  I've heard others on this board are not too excited about that place but I personally haven't heard anything bad.  For what it's worth, I was driving down 15th in Ballard and I saw an Inka 2002 getting some pretty serious front end body damage repaired at Phil's Auto Body.  I know zero about that place but I did see a 2002 there.  Not sure that's helpful.  If you end up going somewhere and you're happy with the results, i'd love to hear about it otherwise I'll likely be going to Eurotech.

    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
