Hi, I have a 1976 BMW 2002 in Indianapolis that is partially restored. I would like to sell in hopes of buying a roundie later on. I'll try to be as detailed as I can, though message me with any questions, please!
It was purchased in Florida last year and I have worked on it almost every day up until previous winter. Mileage unknown as odometer doesn't work (as usual), though I don't believe it has been rebuild as it uses about 1/2 quart of oil every 1000 miles or so. It is an Automatic (which shift perfectly through all gears) and has a electric sunroof (originally hand crank, but I installed it using an original Bosch sunroof motor) as well as Behr A/C (needs to be purged). It is very solid (rockers, shock towers) and would only need two things to be a daily driver: a radiator and front axle work. A new paint job and detailing can make this a show car easily.
Things I've done:
- The only areas that had major rot-through rust were the driver and passenger floor, so I had in new sheet metal welded in both areas.
- The underbody and rear subframe has POR-15 semi gloss black.
- The sunroof drain tubes were rusted out and have been repaired. The rear tubes drain above the rear wheel arch.
- Headliner has been installed (albeit not the best) as well as tan cut-pile carpet (molded).
- Sound deadener has been applied on the floor pans and rear seat back.
- New rear quarter window seals.
- New sunroof felt/rubber seals.
- New primary and secondary muffler from ANSA.
- A/C controls didn't work when I bought it, but I fixed the electric part. It needs to be purged and recharged. Included is two freon cans to refill. The compressor works, but may need oil. Also one of the refrigerant hoses was broken so I bought a new hose and fitting which need to be crimped.
- Removed red engine fan and replaced with electric fan in front of condenser. (still have original parts).
- Removed emissions wiring
- New idle jet.
Things previously done before purchased:
- 32/36 DGEV with water choke.
- Later E30 bottlecap wheels. (Originally wheel as spare, but no tire)
- Originally Sahara. Repainted Green (I believe a Mercedes color) at South Beach Classics. Not a great paint job, and there was at one time a satalite radio receiver on the trunk taken off, leaving a Sahara tan patch. Some scratches here and there but overall, its all one color and mostly nice.
- Some VERY MINIMAL body filler on sunroof, near front sunroof drain exit, and valence.
- CD Player (Occasionally skips depending on the disk.) Door panel and parcel shelf speakers (which sound tolerable)
Things needing to be done:
- Most notably and recently: the front brakes, bearings, and alignment. It takes almost two feet to stop the car so I wouldn't recommend driving it very far/fast.
- Also a big deal: it needs a new radiator badly. There is a mini geyser under the grille that makes it somewhat embarrassing to drive. It doesn't overheat as long as the water is topped off.
- The A/C, as mentioned. Or it can be removed.
- For a show car, the sunroof needs a new lid, new guides and some TLC. It closes too high in the front. It would be better to get one from a donor car. However, the motor works fine. It will also keep you dry as I fixed the drains. $200 for a new lid from 2002ad.com if you desire to get a new one.
- No horn buttons (horn works though...the buttons just broke.)
- Some minor scratches and a shallow door ding (repainted over before I purchased it.)
- Rear window seal was aftermarket and doesn't fit right, but keeps water out. Always buy OEM I now learned. I do have the chrome strip though I will include.
Seats have no tears at all and the dash is not substantially cracked. All electrics/lights work. It may POSSIBLY need a starter in the distant future as it has given me trouble ONLY ONCE (hitting it with a rachet fixed it). Transmission shifts perfectly. I kept most everything original other than the electric fan. Have all the parts when first purchased which I will include. Also some misc parts (additional cluster parts, new rear wheel bearings, A/C manifold gauges)

BMW 2 Series Active Tourer corners surprisingly flat on 'Ring
Mon, 07 Jul 2014With seven seats and front-wheel drive, you might not expect the upcoming long-wheelbase version of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer to live up to the Ultimate Driving Machine reputation that BMW has fostered over the years. But the latest spy clip from the Nürburgring suggests otherwise.
The Bavarian automaker has apparently been testing its new people mover on the Nordschleife, getting it ready to join the growing 2 Series family. And though it's wearing heavy camouflage, we can clearly see from the video below that it's cornering impressively flat - which bodes well for those who'll need to transport their expanding family but aren't prepared to give up on handling.
BMW X6 M said to lap the 'Ring in 8:20
Fri, Jul 17 2015Bimmer Today reports that the German rag Auto Zeitung ran an Audi RS3 and a BMW X6 M around the Nurburgring together, and the hotted-up sports activity vehicle came in just five seconds behind the white-hot hatch. Driven by 'Ring regular Horst von Saurma, the RS3 ran its lap in 8 minutes, 15 seconds, and the X6 M ran an 8:20. If those times are accurate, that makes the X6 M the second fastest production SUV on the lap-time list according to Wikipedia: ahead of it is the 550-hp Range Rover Sport SVR, which ran a time of 8:14. That time puts BMW's 575-horsepower, 5,200-pound SUV four seconds ahead of the time registered by the last-gen, 555-hp X6 M, and well ahead of the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S that Sport Auto clocked an 8:34 with. It would not, however, match the predictions that X6 M project manager Herbert Bayerl made for it in an interview with Sport Auto earlier this year. Bayerl said "The new BMW X6 M moves at the level of M3," speaking of the E92 BMW M3 that Sport Auto ran around the 'Ring in 8:05. It is, though, two seconds faster than the E46 M3, which lapped in 8:22. Bayerl called out the Range Rover Sport SVR directly, saying, "We have been traveling much faster in testing and have undercut the time of Range Rover several times," and "We don't need any special attachments to go faster." Auto Zeitung's report on the lap is only for subscribers so we'll have to wait for more official news. For the apples-to-apples comparison we'll be looking forward to Sport Auto's hot lap, then we'll know if the Range Rover has anything to fear. Related Video:
BMW's new strategy: Electric everything
Mon, Sep 12 2016Mercedes isn't the only car maker determined to beat Tesla before it gets huge. Sources speaking to German business daily Handelsblatt claim that BMW is in the midst of planning an executive shuffle that will also include a big shift in its electric vehicle strategy. While the company would still offer ground-up EV designs like the i3, the new strategy would greenlight electric versions of some of BMW's most important vehicles, including the 3-series sedan, X4 crossover, and iconic Mini. If the leak is accurate, management is likely to approve the change at the end of September. We've asked BMW for its take on the report, although it declined to comment to Handelsblatt. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Munich crew change tack, though. While Tesla has received hundreds of thousands of Model 3 pre-orders, i3 sales dropped in 2016 – the upscale (if oddly-shaped) EV just isn't as hot as it once was. If BMW electrifies some of its most popular cars, you wouldn't have to choose between a super-efficient, eco-friendly EV and the familiar designs of the brand's mainstream driving machines.The story originally appeared on Engadget, your guide to this connected life.Related Video: Featured Gallery Mini Vision Next 100 Concept View 38 Photos Green BMW MINI Electric Hybrid engadget
