I am selling my project because I simply don't have the space and time. I specifically purchased both of these vehicles to tailor a very cool car, one car is in mechanically good shape with thousands of dollars invested in the mechanics; about $4,000 in 2001 and an additional $1,700 in 2012. I have a video of the 1968 running on youtube which I am working on making visible. The vehicle has some rare parts including the rare shorty bumper and Euro lights and just those two parts would sell for close to $2,000 alone. The 1974 runs and is an automatic with a straight body and I was going to transfer the engine into the 1974 along with the exterior parts and make it a roundie. The 1974 has bilstin shocks and a nice interior. My intention which can be done by the purchaser is to finance the project by selling the parts you don't need such as the interior, dash, metal and so on. The 1974 will need its driver side base boards replaced but I have a contact in Colorado who has a complete undercarriage ready to sell for $500 that will fit the car. The 1974 apparently has less than 67,000 original miles but the undercarriage I would replace with the contact in Colorado who can take car of you. I have also found a rear roundie metal if you want to convert the 74 to make a roundie. The smart thing about this purchase is you can tailor the car you want and sell off the parts you don't need and it will turn into a rather inexpensive project because the parts are worth quite a bit, the automatic transmission for example would sell for $300 and the bumpers would sell for an additional $300 so you can see how the project can self fund itself and you could even purchase both cars to simply make a profit by parting them out and making a considerable amount more that the reserve price. The shipping will also be cheaper as you can get a great discount and getting both vehicles shipped which should cost you about $300-$400. A few things to note: do not ask if I will sell one of the vehicles or ask if I am interested in selling a part. Also, please don't ask the reserve price. I am only interested in selling both vehicles at once to one party. My reserve price is very reasonable and I could make quite a bit more if I had the time and space available. The 68 runs very well and would look great if the cover was replaced for about $70 but other than that the motor runs well and so does the transmission on both cars. The wheels on the 1974 are very sharp and would look great if they are cleaned up a bit and the headliner and interior is in pretty good shape. I don't really need to explain what you can do and how much money you can make if you are the type of buyer who would buy these cars, you already know what you have in mind but feel free to give me any questions. Thanks and good luck On Apr-07-14 at 18:53:21 PDT, seller added the following information: In addition, the 68 has a trunk full of parts. I am going to throw in likely several hundred dollars worth of parts. I have new belts, rubberized stripping for the doors, brand new set of spark plugs, I have shocks, I even have some parts that are still in plastic, brand new blue coil from a MSD Package...I have owned several 2002 's and one had performance parts so they are not related but I have some Dual Spark Package Parts. Performance Spark Plug Wire Set, Extra Distributor, Brand New Battery, Brand New Battery Harness, there are extra moldings (you can see how the 68 does not have the metal strap but most of it is in the trunk and there are parts missing on the 74 but there should be more than enough to work with. The tires are also in pretty good shape. There are 6 X 9 speakers, an amp, the AC Unit has shocked lots of people. I have been told it can be easily fixed (however I did not look into it). Whoever buys this is probably going to feel like I am a fool but honestly, I don't care, I just don't have the time, I am running a business right now and I just don't have he time to deal with all this stuff but I would not be surprised if you could milk $15,000 + out of this. The AC Central Console is in good shape and sturdy which is important if you are going to work with it to put some gauges in there. Even the dash on the 74 isn't so bad, its actually in pretty good shape and has the standard one crack and a hairline crack. The 68 interior itself, if restored could be sold for a considerable amount of money. That 68 is a gold mine if you know what you are doing simply because people looking for 68 original parts are going to be after them and my whole plan was to restore as many of those parts and sell them to finance the project. The speedometer is fine in the 74 but it is not working in the 68 but the other gauges are working and the lights are fine. I am trying to think of as much stuff as I can. I am still trying to get the Youtube Video of me driving around the 68 so you can hear the engine and the car shifting. As soon as I can figure out how to get the video from my phone to youtube I will post it. |

BMW adds on-street parking to DriveNow carsharing in SF
Sat, May 10 2014BMW is putting a new spin on the concept of the San Francisco treat. The German automaker cut a deal to clear out 80 street-parking spaces for its DriveNow car-sharing program in the notoriously parking-constrained City by the Bay. Bimmer is also more than doubling its all-electric ActiveE car-sharing fleet in San Francisco to 150 vehicles from 70. Starting later this month, customers will be able to access the DriveNow website or app to find, reserve and park the electric Bimmers on certain streets in San Francisco's Mission district. Once the car is ready to be turned back in, the vehicle's in-car screen will also indicate what "drop-off" zones the driver can use to end the reservation. It's all very high-tech, and BMW is looking to expand the program to other San Francisco neighborhoods like Bernal Heights, the Haight, Noe Valley and Potrero Hill. There's also a contest for users to name the 80 new vehicles, but it involves a really complicated lettering system. "New" here means new to DriveNow, since these ActiveE electric vehicles are really those that were, until recently, used by the Electronauts in BMW's EV leasing program. Since those leases are ending, the cars need to go somewhere. We think carsharing is a great home for them. BMW, which also runs DriveNow in the German cities of Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne, Munich and Dusseldorf, said in March that it was looking to add the service to as many as 15 more cities in Europe as well as another 10 in the US. BMW debuted DriveNow in San Francisco in August 2012, though parking the cars has always been an issue. Check out BMW's press release below. BMW Group's DriveNow Car-Sharing Service Expands to Street Parking in San Francisco. San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee and BMW Group board member Dr. Ian Robertson provided details about DriveNow at a news conference on ... Eighty All-Electric BMW ActiveE Vehicles Added to the DriveNow Fleet to Increase the Convenience of Finding and Parking Emission-Free Cars. San Francisco, CA – May 8, 2014... BMW Group subsidiary DriveNow, a flexible, premium car-sharing program, will expand to offer street parking in multiple neighborhoods in San Francisco, beginning in select areas of the Mission District and will add 80 electric BMW ActiveE vehicles to the existing fleet, increasing the total number of ActiveE vehicles in the San Francisco Bay Area to 150. DriveNow members will have the opportunity to name the 80 electric vehicles in a two-week social media challenge.
BMW's Connected Drive feature vulnerable to hackers
Tue, Feb 3 2015BMW is working to fix a cyber-security flaw that has left 2.2 million vehicles worldwide vulnerable to hackers. Cars equipped with the automaker's Connected Drive remote-services system are affected, according to the German Automobile Association (ADAC), which first discovered the problem. Researchers found they could lock and unlock car doors by mimicking mobile communications and sending phony signals to a SIM card installed in affected vehicles. An attack could be launched "within minutes" of accessing the system without the perpetrators leaving a trace, according to their report, in part because once they had gained access to the network, the communications were not secure. In response to the security gap, BMW says it has been upgrading software via over-the-air updates over the past week, so no visits to dealerships are needed to remedy the security hole. In fact, owners of affected cars may not have even noticed the updates taking place. The problem affects BMW, Rolls-Royce and MINI vehicles equipped with Connected Drive since 2010. Flaws were first reported to BMW last year by ADAC, which is the country's equivalent of AAA. ADAC says it withheld a public announcement until the car company could address the problem. While BMW has pushed the software patch to most affected vehicles, the organization said it's possible some at cars in the United States had not yet been updated. BMW did not respond to a request for comment Monday. In a written statement, the automaker said it knows of no real-world breaches. 2015 Off To Dubious Start The hack could raise the eyebrows of industry leaders: Cars are now the equivalent of mobile computers and cyber-security experts have been warning that the auto industry has been slow to close its security holes. BMW's breach marks the second time in 2015 that researchers have found a popular automotive feature with little or no security precautions. Last month, experts said a popular device made by Progressive Insurance that allows motorists to track their driving habits contained no security whatsoever. Like the Connected Drive smart-phone app, many automotive components and infotainment features were conceived and produced at a time when industry executives never considered the possibility someone might want to hack into them. But increased connectivity brings increased risk. Going forward, BMW says its Connected Drive features will now operate by using encrypted communications via the HTTPS protocol.
BMW makes X7 in Spartanburg official
Fri, 28 Mar 2014BMW has made it official - there will be a flagship crossover called X7, and it will be built right here in the US of A. The announcement was made today, confirming rumors of the new model at the Spartanburg, SC factory that broke earlier this week.
"Plant Spartanburg was built to enhance and expand the BMW lineup, underscoring the BMW Group commitment to the United States" said Dr. Norbert Reithofer, chairman of the BMW board of management in a statement. "In addition to the X3, X5, X6, and the new X4, we are today announcing another all-new, larger X model to be manufactured exclusively at this plant for our world markets: the X7."
BMW will spend $1 billion by 2016 upgrading its South Carolina factory, which already produces the X3, X5 and X6. The plant is currently capable of producing 300,000 units per year, but with the big investment from BMW, capacity will climb to 450,000 units. 800 jobs will be added as a result of the investment and new and upcoming models.
