At the BMW CCA Foundation Museum/HQ in Greer, SC, just across the road from the BMW factory.  If you're going to Vintage, block out Friday 18 May to drive down and visit.

Some are revealed in the Roundel story.  According to the article, Jackie Jouret is doing a book on the cars and owners. Hard bound first, then maybe soft cover edition later.

Bill Williams touring is there along with Dirk's Condor Yellow cabriolet and Jason Gipson's recently completed car.  Others are mentioned that I've never seen before. There is an M2 also and Rob Siegel's Louie -Agave 72tii.

 

Roger Bensen's wonderful NK car is also there. I've not seen his car in person yet- only seen it in the Hemings Sports & Exotic magazine.

I miss Sports & Exotic.  When Hemmings snuffed it suddenly, they continued my subscription with their American car magazine.  They do not even include any articles on imports for the S&E orphans they created.  When they said that S&E no longer fit in their plans, I wondered if they heard an anti-import dog whistle on their TV.  Oh well, S&E was a great mag featuring the affordable classics and well done.  Sorry and a bit miffed it's gone.

The information signs for each car are not ready yet, along with new LED ceiling lighting.  Yale Rachlins 2002, Dirk's cabriolet, the Italian Baur,  ... I took quite a few better quality shots with my Nikon (not potato cam) but can't download/post yet because I'm still on the road for this event.

Nice ICON t-shirts are for sale $25  (1st of 3 style's IIRC) and a beautiful ICON paperbound coffee table book for $50.  tThey also just got paperbound Legends of the Autobahn books in also.

Obviously Terry Sather owns the m3 to 2002 conversion. Actually M3 subframe with 2002 body panels on it.

 

Currently owned by Lance White. He bought it from Terry.

    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
