Hi All
I am a new owner or a 1972 2002. this car is in ok shape it was given to me by my grandfather who can not work on it any more. It has a fresh engine rebuild but a carburated model not a ti. it needs new paint and interior i just finished rebiulding the brakes and was so much simpler than i thought it would be. I have never owned a bmw i have been a triumph man all of my life but so far i love this little car. the questions i have are.
1. The car has a bad sputter i tryed adjusting the carb and there are no adjustments on it. i want to put a webber on it anyway so it that a good call do these cars run better with a stock carb or a webber?
2. i want to modernize the car a little bit is there a llater modle 5 speed manual transmission that will bolt up to this car with minor modifications.
3.Interior i am having trouble finding parts sources on the internet. The car had a leaky windshield seal so the carpet is ruined were is a good place to get all interior parts such as carpet, door panels, head liner, and molding.
4. I have hated the front seats in that car since i was a child. is there a later modle front seat with foam padding (insted of horse hiar) that can be used in this car?
Thanks for all of your help Chris
