The BMW 2002tii was produced from 1968 to 1976 and was the ancestor of the mega-popular 3-series. Today, the 2002tii is one of the rarer BMWs in the classic-car market.

My father owned this car for 12 years and has been sitting for some years inside the garage. This car will be a great build with minimal effort. It needs about 2 days of bodywork and it’s ready for paint. This is an amazing car! Don't pass it up! 

Description:

Pros- The car is structurally sound. It was fully restored in 2002 and rarely driven. The restoration included New Fuel Tank, Rear Struts Towers, Struts, New Brakes, Front & rear brakes, Windshield Gasket, Cold Start System, Alternator and seat belts.  Electrical system is in good condition. Shifts well, Good Pirelli tires P400s (175/75/13). Interiors are in very good condition with BMW 635i rear seats. The car has a clean title. All #s match on body interior plate and block!.

 Cons - Vehicle does not start under its own fuel system; it needs to be flushed. If Choke cleaner is spread in the throttle body, the vehicle starts immediately (Smoke Free). Needs body rust removal (Nothing serious) in the usual spots (Front Hood, around rear wheels wells, behind the sunroof and lower portion of passenger door) and paint. The car was fully restored in 2002 but the paint faded fast. The headliner is good except for one tear over driver’s side door. Carpets are good except for usual wear. Dash is good except for the usual two cracks. Clock & rear defroster don’t work. Key doesn’t work on passenger-side door. The brakes need to be addressed as the vehicle has been sitting for some years.  No battery.

NOT SURE OF MILEAGE, BUT HAD TO PUT IN A NUMBER TO PROCEED WITH LISTING.


Note: There are no warranties provided with the car, and I will answer any questions as honestly as possible with my limited knowledge.  Sale is final, and a non-refundable deposit ($500) is required in 72 hours. Please, only serious bidders! Buyer will need to arrange local pickup in Orlando, FL.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me via e-mail. Thank you for your interest and I look forward to hearing from you.

Child cobalt miners: Automakers pledge ethical minerals sourcing for EVs

Wed, Nov 29 2017

BERLIN - Leading carmakers including Volkswagen and Toyota pledged on Wednesday to uphold ethical and socially responsible standards in their purchases of minerals for an expected boom in electric vehicle production. Demand for minerals such as cobalt, graphite and lithium is forecast to soar in the coming years as governments crack down on vehicle pollution and carmakers step up their investments in electric models. To cover its plans for more than 80 new models by 2025, Volkswagen alone is looking for partners in China, Europe and North America to provide battery cells and related technology worth more than 50 billion euros ($59 billion). Talks with major cobalt producers, including Glencore, at VW's Wolfsburg headquarters last week ended without a deal. More than half of the world's cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country racked by political instability and legal opacity, and where child labor is used in mines. On Wednesday, a group of 10 leading passenger-car and truck manufacturers announced an initiative to jointly identify and address ethical, environmental, human and labor rights issues in raw materials sourcing. The partnership dubbed "Drive Sustainability" consists of VW, Toyota Motor Europe, Ford, Daimler, BMW, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo Cars and truckmakers Scania and Volvo. The alliance "will assess the risks posed by the top raw materials (such as mica, cobalt, rubber and leather) in the automotive sector," said Stefan Crets of the CSR Europe business network. "This will allow Drive Sustainability to identify the most impactful activities to pursue" to address issues within the supply chain.Reporting by Andreas Cremer.Related Video: Image Credit: Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post via Getty Images Green BMW Ford Honda Jaguar Land Rover Mercedes-Benz Automakers Toyota Volkswagen Volvo Green Automakers Green Culture Electric Scania ethics mining

How to charge up your BMW i3 with a Honda

Sat, Sep 13 2014

Behold a cheaper version of BMW's range extender for its i3 plug-in. And it's brought to you by ... Honda? Sort of, if you take the approach that Gadget Review took when it looked for an alternative to ponying up the $4,000 or so for the gas-powered i3 range extender that comes from the factory. What was procured was a Honda portable generator for Home Depot for the experiment, which involved gassing the generator up in a parking lot, plugging in the i3 and going out for a cup of coffee. The result was that, after about a half-hour of charging, the i3 picked up about four miles of driving range. Not exactly revolutionary but it least a bit instructive. And given that Honda generators start at about $800, the idea, while clunky, is potentially cash-saving. Gadget Review briefly took the experiment one-step further by trying to run the generator inside the back of the car and plugging in, complete with a rigged-up ventilation system, but the host thought better of it once he realized that there'd be suffocation involved. Why this was never tried on the Nissan Leaf, we'll never know. Check out Gadget Review's five-minute video below.

BMW CS reinterpretation proves retro can be sexy [w/video]

Fri, 28 Mar 2014

Designer David Obendorfer doesn't work for BMW, but perhaps the German automaker should give him a call. His CS Vintage Concept shows a singular ability to understand the brand's classic style and reinterpret it for today. He isn't some amateur, either. Obendorfer has an industrial design degree and has been penning the interiors and exteriors of yachts from the Officina Italiana Design for five years, which counts luxury shipbuilders like Riva and Sanlorenzo among its clients. His website shows a real passion and knack for modernizing '60s and '70s European cars, too.
Obendorfer prefers to reimagine classic automotive styles. "Retro cars are not copies of their predecessors or renovated specimens, rather they are carefully studied reconsiderations, strongly rooted in contemporary style," he tells Autoblog. For the CS Vintage Concept, he worked to update the looks of the seminal BMW 2000CS and its E9 chassis while placing them on a modern platform. Obendorfer's inspiration comes from his belief that the later CS models' design is partially responsible for defining BMW styling, with its shark-nose front and four round headlights.
The CS Vintage Concept's shape starts with a jutting hood and a quartet of LED headlights, but the whole design really comes together in profile. The Hofmeister Kink at the rear pillar with the BMW Roundel is a nice nod to the originals, yet the proportions still find the perfect fusion of classic and modern. The interior is minimalist, with a vast expanse of wood for the dashboard at first glance, but the latter opens to expose the car's infotainment system.
