My big 2002 career move!

[Glen Karr]

Paul,

Looking forward to meeting you at the Vintage this year.  Didn't have a chance to meet you at the 2017 Vintage because you were always surrounded by people and didn't want to butt in. I'll be there with my Red Tii.

Best regards,

Glen

WOW !!  What a fantastic opportunity !!

 

Cheers,

 

Carl

Congratulations Paul! I think that is how I met you, buying parts from you. Now please hit the books and make sure you learn about what you will be selling...?

You are SUCH a jerk, Robert! I'm gonna squeeze the stuffing outta you at The Vintage. You've been warned.

Woo hoo. I am jeslous. Half my car is courtesy of Max bags arriving in the mail

 

One request... I know profit is required in business, but the shipping charges to me seem very high. 

 

Congrats and will look for something to order ?

Occasionally, if items from an order drop ship from different locations, those charges tend to add up. In the future, I hope to have a little more control over these charges and can potentially credit portions of them. It will definitely be among my goals - to offer prices that (even including shipping) are still exceptional.

Congrats to Paul from our cat!

[wegweiser]

Your 2002cat is WAY more aggressive than my 2002cat. Mine had her brain installed upside down at the factory. She'll lie like this for hours. The Service and warranty department stopped returning my calls months ago.

BMW have a service department!

Good luck with the new venture Paul, any chance of opening an Aussie branch?

That's because we're both OLD now, Bob!

 

I prefer to think of us as 'Classic'! ?

Congratulations, Paul.  I think this is what you were destined to do.  I restored my tii the first time 20 years ago talking to you and Carl Nelson, my two parts go-tos, 5 minutes at a time.  If I can get off my butt and get my re-fresh going (the dive to strip it all down for paint is daunting), I'm sure we'll have quite a few more 5 minute conversations.

sounds great!

 

I sure hope the web site gets a reboot.

I plan on many improvements. Right now, the limiting factor is BMW's database and parts diagrams. There are a few holes and flaws in the application / data columns as well as incorrect or missing illustrations. I always recommend that people e mail me directly when seeking parts for the classic/vintage models. I can compare the modern information with that in my old analog parts books to verify fitment and price. I also hope to improve overall navigation and shopping cart dynamics in the coming weeks/months. 

 

ALSO OF INTEREST - all the prices listed are strictly for GENUINE BMW PARTS. We offer a complete catalog of many OEM / aftermarket parts (Ate hydraulic parts, Lemförder suspension parts, Bosch, Meyle, Uro, SKF, FAG, Beru, etc...) that are of high quality at far lower prices than those listed. I like the Genuine stuff best, but there's no way I'm paying $277 for a tie rod! When in doubt, send me a direct e mail and I can offer options on most things.

 

classicbmwparts@gmail.com "attn Paul" will get to me quickly.

Nice Paul!

What's old is new again.
