Any British Columbia 2002 owners here?

Thanks Joystream.  I'm up in Squamish.  I just wrested away a 74 tii that my Dad has had since 78.  I grew up around these cars.  I think my Dad had 5-6 when I was too young to understand what they were.  I have an Inka 74 with 50K on it.  Original paint..pretty fine unrestored specimen.  

 

I'd love to connect with other 02 enthusiasts and get out for a spin here and there.  Also looking for a few mechanical needs that I don't want to get into myself.  I have a bunch of little things right now I'm occupied with, but looking for someone that might be able to re-seal my rear diff?  Skeptical of all shops, so any advice is appreciated.

Bryan pretty nice way to start off...... I am planning on a trip up the "sea to sky" for  my maiden voyage shakedown . I  am closing down on a full restoration so I will be in touch in a few weeks.

 

Give Rick Stephenson, (a member here), a call ( 778-989-3403)  He has a shop in Port Moody, he will   be able to help you out.

 

Welcome, check out the club section too.

What is it with you BC guys and Inka 02s? ?

 

I KNOW!  It must have been Haight-Ashbury North in the 70s.  Psychedelic Man!

 

We could have our own Inka Cars and Coffee.   Crazy.

Can I get in on that?  Pit stop in EastVan?  Looking forward to seeing your Colorado car.  Last time I saw it, it was only a shell with Dynamat.  Rumour has it that it's come a long way, via Seattle. ;)  

 

Follow you up to Squamish.

Hey Paul,  I will contact you for sure. I have promised Ian  a  ride to Whistler once I get the car on the road so I  would be happy to have you come along as well.

 

The car , I finally goes to upholster this week. Baring any other holdups should have the car licensed by mid April.

That goes for all my Brethren in BC. I have a couple of "single-use" tools.  I have AN A/C fitting crimper, a hydraulic gear puller and a couple of things like that.  If you need them for a project we can work out an arrangement.

Former BC guy, still have family on the Island.  There used to be a local BC 02 group that was pretty active, but I think it kind of fell apart a few years ago.  A friend of mine moved to the island a couple of years ago, with his really nice Colorado 73.

    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
