engine and drivetrain Why Orange Is My Favorite Color...

[tsteph12]

Recently received my early '72 back from the good Mr. Holmes aka Bavarian Rennsport. Fresh engine rebuild and various new mechanicals, as well as tranny and suspension bits. Tight, tight and a blast to now drive. Original paint, free of rust, straight, and sunroof to boot. Picked this up last year from Mike McHenry here in Camarillo. Had been mostly off the road since the early 90's and kept non-op so blue plates stayed. Beautiful cool sunny weekend weather, so though I'd take some pics. I feel so fortunate to have found such an original 02. Thanks for allowing me to share.

Great find, Tom. You need to take a little spin up to SB someday. Let me know, I would love to see it in person. Still have the touring?? Which will you take to LA in October? I am sure we can find someone to drive one for you.

Hey there Steve,

Gotta love inka as you well understand. Still have the touring. Runs great after Bill's extensive work on it as well. Currently have about 2,700 miles on the touring rebuild, so recently been able to let her scream without worry. Hope to see you soon.

Beautiful car ! I'd love to know a little more about Bill's work. I have always heard excellent things.

What a small world it is. I also bought my car from Mike McHenry back in 1999. Malaga carburated 02.

I started a restoration on it about 2 years ago and it is still under way.

Congratulations! Very nice.

Small world indeed. Bill does great work and is located down in eastern San Diego County (Ramona). He loves to talk 02's and is happy to address questions over the phone. His # is (760) 789-2002. Good luck with your malaga.

Super car. The color is great.

Your radio looks really similar to mine - I hardly ever see that. Mine has an extra button...the "seek" button.

Once again, car looks great, and with the rebuilt stuff I'm sure it drives great, too.

If you're going to style and profile in that fine ride, you need some fine threads.

Congrats on such a sweet original 02. I have yet to meet you and I certainly look forward to it one day. Going to the Oct meet at woodley park?

Nice! My '76 Inka is just about as original but has not had the benefit of professional resto. Question about your radio - my Blaupunkt is like it but it's a German model. The left button has a misucal note on it, whereas your has an "L". Just what does that button do? Mine seems as if it's a countor or loudness control.
