well this is what she looked like a few years ago after I rescued her from a wharehouse in Jersey she'd been flopping in for about 20 years.

Luckily there were 4 spare rims with brand new studded snow tires in the trunk, they have really come in handy here in Florida.

Curently she is in about 1,000 pieces and various stages of primer but hope to have done by summer.

Well I have the original sticker for the car it was purchased in November of 74 and other then the $3.55 they spent on antifreeze the only other option was $290.00 for "mag wheels" I also have every reciept for the vehicle and I can not find anywere that they purchsed the rims with the bottle caps that are on it now and no idea what happenned to or what the "mag wheels" even looked like. Unless they wre the rims with the snow tires on them but they were just steel BMW rims like the bad photo attached, if they are what was considered mags then maybe they picked up the bottle caps to run in the summer so they just had to swap wheels between seasons. I know I always did that when I lived in Cleveland

    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
