Well - I've reached my last resort on the Bultaco

Lol. You are killing me.

 

4 of the 5 motorcycles can fit on the lift where the Mini used to sit.  So, I shouldn't have an issue getting the Bultaco in there.  

 

The Ferrari is good.  I had a major service done.  Got it back, and it didn't run right.  Took it back to the mechanic, and they did some troubleshooting, and now it is running great.  It's been too wet last few weeks to drive, but I'm happy.  While they had it, they figured out that it was running hot because one of the fan relays was failing.  They replaced that relay, but when I got it back, I replaced all of the relays.  

 

911 is great.  That car runs so strong.  I need to change the oil in it.   

 

When I was working on the rear brakes of the 2002, I accidentally ran into the roof rafters of the garage.  So - there are 2 dents in the roof. Really upset me.  So - next year, it's project 2002.  Get all the body/paint work done in the 2002, including adding the NOS Zender air dam.  Swap the head and add the DCOE's.  It will be good.

 

I will get the tank/body parts back for the 75 R90/6.  To put the front and rear fenders back on it, I'll have to take off both the front and rear wheels.  To to that - I have to take both the ferrari and porsche out of the garage.  It's supposed to rain all weekend here, so that might not get done.

 

Finally - still waiting on the custom made tank for the R100 and the custom made seat and tank for the CB550.  Hopefully get both of those back and working this year too.

 

Wow - that's a lot.  I have too much krap.

Home.

 

Got it this morning.  Trip was as uneventful as you want it in Houston, mid-day traffic can be.  I was terrified.

 

Got home, unloaded the trailer and put all the stickers on it.  

 

Thunderstorms are rolling though now, and I don't want to ride in them.  So - here are some pics until the weather improves.

 

Jim - I stuffed it in the garage, between the 911 and the tire machine.  My wife is now convinced that the garage is the Magic Tent in the Harry Potter books/movies.  She said "I swear, someone could bring an airplane over, and you would get it in the garage..."

    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
