Reach out if you know any members that might have some info on this BMW. 

Did you check the FAQ roster to see if it's there?  And yeah, that's a very early car, probably built on the first couple of days of US spec production.  If still original, it should have mechanical clutch activation like the 1600s...Hydraulic clutches didn't happen until after the first 300 or so 02s were built.

Since 2016 it has moved from VA-NC-AL-TN and last I heard it's again in NC (Greenville). Doesn't stay with an Owner very long.

Pics from 2017 & 2022.

I have pondered the same with my first love - a Granada red 70 2002 (vin 1669139) sold in 1987. 

Sorry, no info on that one.

That is indeed my old 02' (recognize the wheels). I still have the original bill of sale as well as original owners manuals (in original dealership sleeve) I purchased it from the son of the original owner car was completely original right down to the mechanical clutch. Thank you for the info glad she found a good home.

    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
