Quite a time capsule.  Couldn't see anything in the attached pictures that was wrong for an early '67...and BTW, those early 1600s came with bias ply tires.  You had to order and pay extra for radials, unlike the 2002s, which Hoffman ordered with tne "non-optional" optional radial tires.that 

I've never seen an early 1600 or 2002 that was black from the factory.

Yes, but, Mike, the factory bias ply tires weren't from Sears.  Out they go!

 

Best regards,

Can someone confirm this is original paint? It's always hard to tell from photos alone...

 

I've seen this car up close and do not doubt that it's the original paint. Besides the originality, what this car has going for it is the knowledge and care that the owner has contributed.

I love this car.  I do hope it does not get "over restored" - just clean, make safe anything that needs it, and keep on keeping on!

Great car!  I personally would prefer to have a car similar to Meg's 1600 in Missouri. Period correct accessories and cool seats.

BMW 1600, VIN: 1522827 was manufactured on April 17th, 1967 and delivered on May 11th, 1967 to the BMW importer Hoffman Motors Corp. in New York City. The original paint was/is (Schwartz) Black, paint code 086

 

Connor sent me the additional pictures, best pictures are in the listing. If I were going to by an early '02 this one checks all the boxes.

I have one of these strange radiator hose with the bulb in the middle.

I was surprised to see a lack of last minute bidding.

Wonder what the reserve was

I got my popcorn but nothing happened

No Sale?

The owner should clean clean clean and then clean it some more... and then offer it on BaT. It is just too special a car for eBay...

I predict that, assuming it meets its reserve, it will sell for less than it should -- given the rarity and originality!  ?

 

In my opinion, to date, '02 collectors are more likely to throw money at horsepower -- ti, tii, turbo, M2 -- than at originality....

 

 

I stand by my original statement...
