1971 BMW 2002

So an update on my 71' 2002 that I'm selling. I had a guy fly in to look at it and he did a lot of crawling around underneath the car. He did take some pics and would like if he shared some of the pics on the rust. He found some rust underneath that was concerning to him and decided not to buy the vehicle. I would like to be straight up with this ad on what he found as I don't want to make people drive or fly long distances and waste a trip. As much info on a car for sale the better so a prospective buyer can make a decision or whether or not to come look at it. I will shoot him a text and see if he will share what he found out on the underbody.

Description:

 

I've been on the fence to sell my 71 2002 but I think it's time to move on. This car has been in my family since it was purchased in 71. First my grandfather bought it, owned it until 2006, then he gave it to my mother which it was under her ownership until 2014. I purchased it from her. This car is all stock with 0 modifications. It's to the point where I was going to put new paint on it but there's only one shop in town that has restored these before which is Vorderman Body shop. He has restored three of them and he's the only one I would trust for a complete paint job. He unfortunately doesn't have time this winter and also quoted me a lot higher than I was expecting. The body is to the point where it needs attention mainly because it has a couple small rust bubble on one of the Q panels. The top paint is good but the side panels are starting to show hair line cracks in the top coat. There is no rust in the rear strut tower mounts or floors. The small bubbles in the Q panel are the only ones that are visible. I have done some work to it over the years, mainly engine, plugs/wires, rotor cap, fuel pump and vacuum lines. It runs smooth, drives straight and brakes straight. I also replaced brakes all around. I put all new badges on it, had the original wheels power coated and painted grey and added new emblems on the original hub caps. All of the door and windshield moldings DO need replaced. I was waiting to replace them until it went in for a new paint job but that as stated isn't going to happen. It has the single bbl Solex carburetor which had an overall 3 years ago. The color is Grenada red with black interior. There is only one seam coming apart on the drivers side seat, passenger and rears are in good shape. I would also suggest doing a new headliner when and if a potential buyers purchases it, headliner needs done when the window comes out. There is a small bit of delamination in the front windshield, bottom left. I also added some fogs and re-taped the front grill slats.

 

I've always like older Ford trucks so the reason for selling is to purchase an already restored old truck. I only have a couple pics that I will include in this post but any inquires, PM me and I'll send interior and engine pictures to you.

    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
