E21 Recaros

Recommended Posts

Price: $200
Location: Southeastern Mass


Description:

I have two complete and one in pieces E21 Recarros.  Sold as is.  Firm on price.  My wife is recovering a set of seats for me now for another project car.  When she is done with those, she gets these, unless I sell them first.  I won't ship them unless you are willing to pay me for my time and materials to box and deliver to a shipper.  My 02 is pretty much a dedicated track car at this point so I don't see ever needing these.  Been cluttering up my garage for years.  Time to do something about them. On a similar note, if anybody is interested in the 02 in my sig, we can talk.  Discussion starts at $10K.  Its a full cage, lexan windows, flared fiberglass fenders, fiberglass hood and trunk, accusump, twin Dellorto, close ratio gearbox, and has tons of high dollar spares.  Another set of twin Webers, three limited slips including a 3.45, OD 5 speeds, extra subframes, E21 suspension and brake stuff, extra flywheel, spare engine with a 300 cam, otherwise unknown internals.  Not sure of entire history of the car.  PO passed away and I got the car thru a third party.  Engine and body panels are stamped Mountain Auto Sports(thats Kermit Upton's place in Vt.)  Trans is a real low number 245/10 or 245/11.  Its stored in a barn in central Mass.

I really don't want to ship them.  Its just not worth my time.  Stop and think how much time and gas it will take to find boxes big enough, pack them, then run around with them and get quotes.  I don't even know where there is a grey hound bus terminal.  Boston, Maybe?  If somebody local wants them, I'll sell them.  If somebody buys my car, I'll throw then in the car.  Wife is working on my other set of seats as I type.  I dug them out to take pics.  Another day or two and she will start on these.  Already have a bolt of black Alcantara, and a bolt of white/grey/black plaid upholstry from Germany.  Thats what she is using on the Triumph TR8 seats she is redoing now.

Todd, what an amazing wife you have if she is really doing your seats. Only the ones who have taken one apart and putting it back together knows what a pain they can be. Specially in this cold winter with dry skin while the heater runs. It would be equivalent to working in a steel mill in heat of the summer.

Anyway, we should all appreciate what our families do for us. My respect to her.

Hello Todd, I'd like to give the '02 race inventory a new home here on the West Coast. My email address is bmwrocketman@yahoo.com. My friend of more than 50 years lives near Brattleboro, and may help facilitate the sale, if you like. Freude am fahren! Bill

Looks like Inka'd02 is coming up this weekend to get the seats.  Bill, when you get a chance, send me a PM with an email.  We can talk, and I can get you some pictures.  Car is in storage and its still Winter here.  Well sort of Winter.  End of January and we're still waiting for the first real snowfall.  There has already been some interest in the car, but nothing is a done deal.  I need to get the car home before I make any final decisions about its future.

    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
