I had a fantastic time - bought (and won) some cool parts, met great people, and saw incredible cars. What a great community of enthusiasts!

Hi--

 

That's Gil's car. I'm not sure he is active on FAQ but he is our BayArea 02 registrar so you can simply go to the Swap & Show registration page on MotorsportReg and "Contact the Host".

Hi Magnus: Thanks for starting this thread and adding your photos-- you have some nice ones!

 

I encourage others to add their photos, or to start a new thread in the Swap & Show gallery for S&S-17.  Photos help us remember some of the good times, and also to see some of those more interesting variations of our cars, so post away!

 

Also, thank you to all of you who were there!

 

Larry

363 days until the next one. 

 

The cars are the "why" the people are the "reason" we get together. 

 

It was nice to catch up with some old friends and see a few nice cars at the same time.

 

Be well.

    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,
