72 2002 what i got into


prostock3

Recommended Posts

I have always played around with jeeps, offshore powerboats, and decided to build my first car. Iv worked for BMW as a master tech for over 10 years and always loved german cars.

 

I found a local car for sale, a 72 2002 roundie. I ended up picking up and car and starting with many ideas on what to do.

 

After purchasing the vehicle I started talking to a few coworker about my plan with the engine. I was going to swap in either a sr20, or a Honda s2000 motor. They ended up talking me out of both a keeping it all BMW powertrain.

 

So after doing a little thinking I am going to swap a S62 motor, with the factory 6 speed. Going to run a E36 M3 rear diff to hold power and limited slip. E30 rear control arms, and E30 axle shafts.

For the body I will run the turbo front bumper, flares, and keep the inka orange color.

 

Someone decided to repaint the car i bought from the factory orange to yellow?

    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
