I actually want the smart guys to disect these cars ie is this car really worth the $$. Nitpick...

 

I'll word my threads different from now on. I thought I knew these cars up and down.... but since joining the FAQ' I now know that was not true at all lol.:o

 

I look every day on every Craigs... I hadn't found much in quite some time.

 

It just happened the last 2 popped up at the same time. I probably won't post another car for awhile.

Then why were you DownVoting people in your other thread?

 

 

I agree with Andrew.  These belong in the cars for sale forum.

     DISCLAIMER -- I now disagree with much of the timing advice I have given in the past.  I misinterpreted the distributor curves in the Blue Book as timing maps for our engines.  I've also switched from using ported-vacuum to manifold, with better results.  I apologize for spreading misinformation.

Only had an issue with a couple loose statements. Most I agreed with but I got this pet peeve about slander on the 'net..that's all

 

Coming from other car forums I was over all that computer 'courage' where things got pretty reckless.

 

But I think most of that was due to alot of negativity built up over time against that particular seller...which is understandable. I read EVERYTHING there was to read about him and it wasn't pretty

 

+ talked to the guy for nearly 30 minutes last week. He did manage convince me that the bulkhead was not bent because of some major impact. I'd still do more research before I would comment on that though.

 

ps. I upvote everything . I give total credit constantly... I might wear out my upvote button 'cause I'm learning new stuff every day..and its fantastic!

 

Paul messaged me and I think we're good. He knows where I was coming from. I'd like to change that vote?

yvclimber I love Amazon. Love Agave and Jade too. Florida is my #1 02 color though. Greens look good on 02's!

Not sure if it still the case, but Green was considered an unlucky colour back in the day for a car in the UK.

If you brought a green car to a salesman for a trade in, you got a low low offer, however, if he had a green one to sell, you could get a good deal. Hence me buying my Green Touring many moons ago.

I don't know about that but I DO know that in some cases red cars are bad luck. Like in the movie Used Cars..hehe

 

Green is Euro.  Early 911's, all those classic British Cars love green...my Alfa boat tail looked great in dark green

 

The Bullit Mustang in green...

 

Growing up I LOVED Agave. Our neighbor had a 72 Agave tii. Showroom Condition with barely any miles. Basically a brand new car. Gorgeous! He let me drive it one day and it was amazing. Perfect syncros!! I pulled alot harder than a stock 02. Damn that car was beautiful

    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
