  1. I’d check different suppliers for all the different parts. There’s several distributors in the US. Roger’s Tii is a good place to start. Scott
  2. When you were removing or replacing the shaft, you must've had a gap between the temp shaft and real shaft, allowing the wheel to move. The only way I can think of correcting, is to take it apart again & re-do. To avoid a wheel moving; when the temp shaft (nail) is pushing the real shaft out, make sure they stay in contact so none of the wheels get loose. To fix yours, you will actually need to allow a gap so that one wheel is freed up. It'll be tricky but you can do it. Good luck!

  4. Just saw Scott Porter in NC post a pic of himself on a Bultaco. I had never heard of them before you told me about yours.
  5. Sorry your 02 wasn't cooperating. The Volvo owner's 02 was having alternator issues, so he drove the volvo. Frank et al do a great job. And it was very nice to see Mike Miller there as well! Scott Sislane
  6. Pics of Saturday's event in Saratoga. Great turnout. Scott
  7. Stopped by today CD, bought your 02 repair binder set and a couple cool books. That IS a nice antique shop. Thank you! Scott
  8. I was in Concord last Tuesday. I will make sure to stop in. Scott Sislane
  9. looks great! Nice looking motor, that should last a life time. Scott
  10. Someone will be getting a car that's had a lot of work done to it. very fair asking price too.
  11. Hi Heather, your request to join our fb page was approved this morning. That would definitely be a great place to start. Scott Sislane
  12. Hi Bart, You'd be best off joining our fb page https://www.facebook.com/groups/bmw2002us/?ref=share As for the radiator, there's really no reason to get a special radiator, IMHP. The stock radiator if freshly re-cored, is great. If that doesn't work, I'd guess your issue is elsewhere. Have you completely flushed the block & head? Then refilled & burped? Water pump replaced?

  13. I've had several different pertronix (or other brands) in different cars, and never an issue and never a worry. I'm sure they can fail, but I've never seen one fail, personally. I think most failures are self inflicted. Rob Siegel has a nice write up here, basically saying the same thing https://www.hagerty.com/media/maintenance-and-tech/ignition-debate-points-vs-pertronix/ Scott
  14. Steve sells a different set of brackets. Eric Anton's has square 'tubes' front & rear. I have his and they fit great, couldn't be happier. If you need the brackets, email Eric Anton. He's great to deal with. Eric Anton <antontr6@gmail.com> Scott
  15. Today I installed the real wood veneer fascia that came with the euro speedo & got a few years ago. The veneer is super thin and doesn't leave much room for refinishing, but I'm happy with it. Scott
  16. are you saying they came with the mounting brackets? I used the square tube brackets that Eric Anton makes and they fit perfectly in both front and rear.
  17. Excellent! thanks for the update & glad you still have it. Your other 02 looks very nice as well. Scott Sislane
  18. I was wondering the same, if he still has it. Planning to DD it, possibly not. And yes, far from original anything but great find.
  19. I guess I found it interesting that mike472 did not appear to have realized the motor had been modified... (8 year old post, I know) Scott
  20. I think mine was CA. (My original motor is sitting in my shed.) It looks like his piston is mark 89.47, 2nd over bore?
  21. Thanks Steve, I didn't realize any of the carb'd 02's came stock with piano tops. (my 76 did not) Scott
