  1. My doors actually stay in one place now. Thanks, Harry!
  2. Hey Rich, really appreciate you opening your stash to the forum. I'm on the hunt for a few pieces: Console metal bracket that goes over the ashtray - outlined in red on this image. One of the red radiator fans An air cleaner for a double barrel carburetor. Either modified or unmodified for the Weber adapter. This air cleaner mounting bracket - image If you still have these, feel free to message to work out the details. Thanks!
  3. Hey guys, first post here and I’m trying to get started with a 2002. I’ve been seriously looking for a 02 for about a year now and found a 73 tii up for sale by Beyond2 (kwan) and wanted to get your guys take on it. http://beyond2.com/1973-bmw-2002tii-solid-rustfree-newly-painted-body/ More photos http://imgur.com/a/peDa4#0 Story: I’m told it’s originally from Los Gatos, CA and that the owner gave up the project after getting the chassis painted and the engine rebuilt. It’s up in Burlingame, CA now. That's about all I know. Chassis: It still has the original tii nose but the rear panel has been replaced possibly due to a rear impact which would explain the repaint. You can see a sub-par seam job where the panel glue is raised and painted over. The interior is a little beat up and all of the exterior trim is just stuck on for the photos. The chassis condition in terms of rust looks really good and I was only able to find a little surface rust under the car around the gas tank/spare area. The paint looks great but he doesn't have any photos of what it looked like before going into the booth. I didn't see any ripples in the body. Drivetrain: The matching tii engine is supposedly done and at the rebuild at the shop, pending payment of $2800 to buy it back. I’m assuming there will be some missing parts but it looks like the major components are all there. To get it on the road would require me to purchase a transmission and drop in the motor. I'm comfortable taking care of most engine/trans work myself. I would basically be buying it as a kit. I’m not really sure what something like this would go for so any type of a ballpark would be really helpful. I know almost no backstory about the car either so if anyone knows something about it or has general input I’m all ears.
