That poor car has been parked near the ocean--typical salt air rust pattern in the disintegrated hood and deck lid, and little rust in the classic road salt areas--fenders, door bottoms,rear fender lips etc.  It may be better than it looks.  

 

The best thing that can be said for it is that it has an early style locking gas cap--if the key is still in the glovebox.

That car has been posted in Facebook marketplace several times. The ad appeared saying the car is in Florida. Owner took a lot of heat, it was posted higher than that. 

 

It's a pile of rust being held by single stage paint.Now the car is in Nashville? Buyer beware! Actually, anyone buying this deserves to get their head examined.?

Hey, the covids are gonna decimate Florida  (yes, 'decimate' means remove one in 10) so things are desperate down there.

 

Yet, hope springs eternal, as that ad proves.

 

There's an Opel Kadet (CUTE little car) in a local junkyard that looks just like that.  I took a dash knob off of it, since it seemed to 

be the only thing that wasn't rusted through...

I like how the car changes colors, interiors stances  and engines. Then does the sleeper rusto-mod  look so no one will steal it! I think I saw something like that in a transformer cartoon......

$1900 for a car that can do all that is a bargain!!  It has to be rare! 

Too bad my dog Buster spoke to me through the television set in his Barbara Streisand voice (which is kinda creepy) and said I cannot buy it.

1975 Malaga. It is rusty but runs. Just like me.

    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
