Just joined today, I have a 1970 02 automatic, Grenada red in close to stock condition.  I know, it's an automatic but hey how many of these are left out there today, so that's why I didn't think of a 4 or 5 speed swap.

Only modifications are an electric fuel pump. The passenger side mirror was already installed when I bought this for $1200 in 2013.  It was a rolling shell, with lots of bits missing, nothing worked and I needed to have it towed home. I don't want to think about how much I have spent on this car to get it back on the road over the last 5 years but it was worth it.

What year is your car? If that is your garage, l'm envious. I am located in Cochrane, Alberta. Guy

The car is a 1969 (originally a 68, registered in 69) from California. I wish that was my garage, that's actually my workplace. We shot a small video series with the exhaust and coolant setup:

Mike, it looks fantastic! Can't wait to see the finished job. Who did the prep and painting?

Thanks Guy I am pretty happy with the way its turned out although I have a few self induced F-Up's that have to take care of. 

The guy that did the prep/paint is a Brit who operates a restoration shop in Langley. Mostly British but does the odd German vintage resto.

    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
