    You know, that's what I figured. Thanks for your input, I appreciate it.

    Nope, this is a Canadian car, located in British Columbia! Yup. Was sitting for years with no one driving it. Not sure when it was parked exactly, but it was certainly running when it was. There seems to be a fuel delivery issue, we're looking into that right now.

    Hey there, I honestly think this is more of "Dad thinks he's got a gem" more than anything else. Thank you for your honesty, I certainly prefer it to lies! I'll see what kind of trim bits he can get back together, seeing as every little bit will help. I'm gonna get him to double check the rust situation, he seems pretty certain that corner is the only real spot. Hopefully I can get some underbody pics.

    Yeah, that back corner was by far and large the biggest worry of mine. Thanks a bunch for your input, I really appreciate it. I'll see if he can get some pictures of the underside to see what's going on down there. He assures me that the rest of the car is basically rust free, but then again, he also told me the back corner "wasn't so bad", lol. He's definitely gonna try to get it running and take a video of it. (I have high hopes for this, given that everything still spins nice and freely after all these years. Car was drained of fluids before being stored, I have a feeling it's just a clogged fuel line/filter). I'll have to get him to look into this, thanks! The rails might very well be the problem. A bit of grease can go a long way. Let me know what you think after you've seen the pictures! And if anyone can chime in about the sunroof being rare, I would appreciate it. (He seems to think this is a big deal for some reason, but I honestly have no clue.)

    http://imgur.com/a/zAfRY (Link to Imgur album of car photos.) Now, to the nitty gritty! It's a 1971 BMW 2002. It has the sunroof (seized at the moment), which I am told is rare for the available North American 2002's, It obviously has some rust (passenger rear quarter panel is rusted right out.), and is not in the best of shape, but considering the age I think it held up pretty well. The motor turns over (was running when parked in 2001.) and seems to be usable, just not getting fuel at the moment. (We are looking at seeing if we can rectify this in the next few days). The album pretty much shows all you need to know about it's condition, and I can get more photos if necessary. The car is located in British Columbia, Canada. The parts shows come with the car, obviously. The big question is, what is a good asking price? Not gonna lie, I've been a GM guy all my life and have absolutely no experience with these BWM's, classic or new. I would really appreciate any help you guys and gals could give me! If you require any more info, please let me know and I will see what I can do.
