1970 BMW 2002 project

Recommended Posts

Price: $2800
Location: Issaquah, WA


Description:

1970 BMW 2002, serial number 1675060. The car was originally purchased as roller, with no engine or transmission, to be built into a vintage road race car. It was fully stripped and preliminary bodywork was carried out, including flaring of the rear fenders and modification in the trunk for fuel cell installation. The project was eventually put on hold though and the entire car was then sandblasted and coated in epoxy primer, which is how the car sits now. There are no additional parts included with the exception of a matching trunk lid, also primer coated and in good condition. The car is attached to a fabricated steel stand on heavy duty caster wheels, which is also included.

The car carries a clean Washington state title in the owner's name, and I also have the original BMW chassis ID plate (which matches the serial number stamped on the chassis). Located in Issaquah, WA.

 

Asking $2800, obo. Yep it's a big project, nope I don't have a bunch of race car parts to go with it. I do have many, many more photos I can share if someone is interested- just DM me and I can send a link. Reach out with any questions- cheers!

A few rust patches were cut out and replaced in 2008 or so before everything was coated in primer. There is no bondo as far as my records show. None of this is to say that the bodywork is "done" though. There was still quite a bit of finishing work to do, especially at the rear of the shell. The front end, roof, floors, etc all look great though. Keep in mind that this was being built into a race car with flared steel rear fenders... not exactly a street car restoration.

    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
