1973 Bmw 2002 Oem+ on 2040-cars
Bedford, Pennsylvania, United States
1973 BMW 2002 2.0L, E21 head Weber 32/36 dgv w/ manual choke VIN 2590293 The original owner drove the car
for 20 years, putting 156K miles on it. He maintained it well and decided to
turn the car into a racer. He installed new Bilstein racing shocks and new
Eibach springs. He also installed the Zender rear spoiler, the aftermarket
sunroof, removed the entire metal waist moulding and filled all the holes. At a point nearing the end of his 20 year
ownership, he had the shock towers repaired professionally (see pictures). He also
painted the body Chamonix white from the original Sahara tan. He then sold the
car to its 2nd owner, who did loads of work to the car and after
roughly 14 years of owning the car, he (the 2nd owner) sold the 2002
to me. During possession of the 2nd owner… He installed the drivetrain from a
restored 73 ‘02 totaled rollover, which he had previously acquired. The motor
from that car was a 1975 (e21 head) which was completely rebuilt, bored and
balanced, new cam and some bottom end work as well. The transmission (rebuilt) was solid with no
synchro issues. The clutch was also new. The driveshaft was rebuilt as well. I have since replaced the
thermostat and flushed the coolant system. Included in the sale comes an extra
water pump. I have also recently replaced the starter. The Carburation which
was installed is a Weber 32/36 DGV with manual choke and K&N air filter.
Since then I have installed a new set of plugs, wires and a new coil pack.
During being away at school the car had to sit for quite some time and when I
went to run it again, I messed with the timing, in doing so my adjustable
timing gun broke so I had to use an older one… Due to this I had to set the
timing back to base timing and have not finalized it for final ignition. The
car starts, runs and drives down the road, but due to the gummed up carb, old
points and base timing, it only runs at about 30% of capable performance. To
bring it back to proper driving excitement means only a small amount of light
work. Included in the sale is a new set of points and a nice set of Bavarian
Autosport Wires. The 2nd owner installed
a brand new ANSA exhaust system; with a 2002Tii exhaust manifold. He also installed new brakes front
and rear with cross drilled rotors and new brake hoses. In addition he installed
factory rebuilt front brake calipers. Included in the sale, is a set of rear
drum pads (one side only) and a set of front caliper pads (one side only). The
only part of the drivetrain that is original is rear differential. (It is still working fine, however an
additional differential is included in the sale.) In addition I will give
another spare steering box with the sale. The ’02 is mounted on a set of performance
Sumitomo 195/60-13 with BBS style OE equipment 320is wheels 13x6. (Currently,
June 2014, the tires are cracking pretty significantly and should be replaced.)
EXTERIOR: The front grilles are later '02
model plastic grilles, which he installed. Headlights are Hella H-4 element
style. The rear bumper is a '71 '02 short sided bumper. Rear trim and taillight
rims painted black. He installed a new front windshield and replaced all the other
glass. He also installed pressure sensitive adhesive backed black moulding to
replace the waist moulding. All side marker lights and reflectors were removed
and holes were filled to simulate the look of the older 2002. I have since
painted the front grills, kidney grills, rear light surrounds and trim. The
original owner removed the front bumper and I have since installed a front
valance from Bavarian Autosport. INTERIOR: The 2nd owner Installed
new black carpeting and all the original black interior panels which are in Very
Good/Excellent condition. He also installed original equipment BMW Recaro seats
from an ‘83 320is. They are in fantastic condition and mounted onto the 2002
seat tracks. The rear seat (both parts) are still in very good condition with
the original horsehair padding. Headliner is solid with no rips along with the sun
visors. The dash pad is a one piece unit from a 74 ‘02. It has a few small to
medium sized cracks. The original ‘bus’ steering wheel is still in excellent
condition with a leather cover. The
original analog radio is gone, but I’ve installed a newer cd player with
axillary port. I have also installed two rear speakers for music enjoyment,
nothing serious or obnoxious. BODY CONDITION: The major 2002 issues have been addressed. As stated above, Rear strut tower decay/rust/rot is NOT an issue on this example AT ALL. As seen in the photos, the rear strut towers are close to Factory NEW. The spare tire well has some very minor surface rust in spots but is absolutely solid (as seen in photos). The body is straight. The front directional areas are solid. Rocker panels are good. Wheel arches are good. Rear suspension mounts are good. Wheel wells are solid. Floors are solid, with some surface rust, but completely structurally sound. The biggest area of concern is the driver’s door; with some small rust holes coming through at the bottom and some sheet metal waves and imperfections (as seen in photos). A few years back I spent many hours applying Eastwood’s Rust Encapsulator to the undercarriage of the car (general tlc and a fun way to get to know the car) For my huge collection of additional photos, please visit my photobucket account ... http://s230.photobucket.com/user/autopulse/library/#/user/autopulse/library/1973%202002?sort=3&page=1&_suid=140250117920905851625003729951 For a short video of the 2002 running at idle with some throttle play, please visit my youtube account ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOKkNcoyKt8 All ISSUES that could
be of any concern: -As stated above, the timing is currently set at base; and
requires adjustment for completion. -The carburetor is gummed up a bit and could use a rebuild
or at least a cleaning. -The points are a few years old and should be replaced soon.
(new points kit come with sale) -The oil dip stick sleeve which was originally pressed into
the block, has come loose over the years and leaks oil at a Very Very slow
rate. (of no real concern, but should be addressed) -The front left frame rail has had metal welded to strengthen it. Done during its autocross days.
Which fyi does not affect drivability at all. (see photos) -Motor mounts and Tranny mounts are in need of replacement
(A new set of mounts comes with the sale of the car) -There is some minor rust which came through on the driver
door bottom, and sheet metal imperfections/creases. (see photos) -Both doors have very minor sagging and could use
adjustment. -Some of the rubber and cloth window seals are getting old.
(see photos) -Passenger window has trouble cranking up due to falling out
of track occasionally. -There are some dash cracks. (see photos) -Driver’s interior door card has some snapped off fasteners,
which are easily replaced (see photos) -Paint is good with some flaws i.e. various chips, clear
fade and other minor issues. (see photos) -Bottom of Rear sub-frame has some rust, which does not
affect drivability, but should be addressed (see photos) -Speedo is non-functioning -Shifter has movement due to worn linkage collar -Non original sunroof
This is not a stock automobile. If
you are looking for a 2002 for investment quality, this car is NOT for you. It
was put back together from parts of various year 2002’s to be driven on the
street. The 2nd owner had put only about 3000 miles since the
reassembly 14 years ago; and I have put an additional 2500 miles on it. It
corners incredibly well due to the stiff suspension. It rides surprising smooth
too, not as harsh as you would think. This car would make a great auto crosser or vintage
racer, as it is already prepped to do so. It is also a fine street driver. It
has been garaged the majority of its life with adult care and attention to
preservation. I personally have an Associate’s degree in Automotive Technology,
and currently I’m going back to school for Transportation Design. The previous
(2nd owner) has owned/worked on 2002’s since 1974 and had owned 22
of them! Between the Original owner, the 2nd
owner and myself; the 2002 has been looked after and maintained properly with a
focus on the legend of BMW’s sporting heritage and the enjoyment of drive. . $500 non-refundable deposit is required at end of the auction from the serious bidder. Anyone who is serious about purchasing this car should send me an email through Ebay. I will then send you my phone number and we can discuss the car, any questions and your intent on purchasing this vehicle. I have the right to cancel any bids over the reserve price from Ebay members with less than 5 positive feedbacks unless we have been in contact.
Due to the '02 not having current inspection, Please bring a trailer or dolley Cheers |

Weekly Recap: Ferrari plans to gradually increase production by 2019
Sat, Oct 17 2015Ferrari has long been known for the exclusivity of its performance machines. It's on a different level than Porsche, BMW, and Mercedes. But as it transitions to a new era of independence from Fiat Chrysler, Ferrari is going to get a little less exclusive. It's by design, and it means a subtle, slow ramp-up of production – a move Ferrari believes will ensure its future by meeting growing demand in new markets. The strategy was detailed in SEC documents filed this month as part of the company's pending stock offering. The files reveal Ferrari will gradually increase shipments to about 9,000 units per year by 2019. This is a reversal of Ferrari's 2013 plans to cap production at 7,000 cars annually, which it hit on the nose that year. Ferrari shipments inched up to 7,255 in 2014, though that's down from 2012's record tally of 7,405. Ferrari is a vastly different operation than it was in 2013. Longtime chairman Luca di Montezemolo stepped down last fall, and FCA chief executive Sergio Marchionne has been overseeing the company since then. Its IPO has attracted high levels of attention from enthusiasts and investors. As expected, demand has reportedly outstripped the availability of the stock, which has an estimated offering price of $48 to $52 a share. Speaking of more Ferraris, the company revealed a limited-edition model this week called the F12tdf (shown above). Based on the F12 Berlinetta, the car is a salute to the Tour de France endurance auto race that Ferrari dominated in the 1950s and '60s. The V12 engine's output increases to 769 horsepower, while weight is cut by 243 pounds – allowing for a sprint to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds. Dramatic carbon-fiber elements and a radical redesign of the body panels give the F12 a more dramatic look. It will be limited to 799 units over the life of the car. If this is how Ferrari is increasing production, we're more than okay with the company's new strategy. OTHER NEWS & NOTES Tesla software unlocks Autopilot features Tesla released the latest version of its software for the Model S this week, which allows the all-electric sedan to drive in a semi-autonomous state called Autopilot. Tesla Version 7.0 enables the Model S to maintain lane position, change lanes by touching the turn signal, and manage the car's speed using an advanced, traffic-sensing cruise control. It also has a parallel parking feature, which searches for open spots and then parks your Tesla.
Refreshed 2016 BMW 3 Series adds two new models to the range
Thu, May 7 2015The BMW 3 Series had years standing at the forefront of the luxury sedan segment, but competitors have continued to get better at challenging its long reign. To make sure the stalwart model can keep up, BMW is bringing some new powertrains and other upgrades to the range with a refresh for the 2016 model year. Plus, the exterior sees a very slight styling update. There are two big additions in the 3 Series range for 2016. First, there's the new 340i with the B58 turbocharged, inline-six engine to replace the 335i. Displacement is still 3.0-liters, but the latest mill makes 320 horsepower and 330 pound-feet of torque – gains of 20 hp and 30 lb-ft over the outgoing model. BMW estimates the 340i can reach 60 in 4.8 seconds with the standard eight-speed automatic or in 4.6 seconds with xDrive. A six-speed manual is also available as a no-cost option. The other new member of the family is the 330e plug-in hybrid, and it joins the lineup later in the year. BMW isn't specifically talking about the PHEV's powertrain, but the company estimates total output of 250 hp and 310 lb-ft. The sprint to 60 is forecasted at 6.1 seconds, and the range on electric power is predicted at 22 miles. Fuel economy isn't disclosed yet. Beyond these two models, there are a host of other upgrades under the skin for the 3 Series. The eight-speed automatic should be slightly more efficient thanks to wider gear ratio, and the handling is reworked with new front struts, rear dampers, and retuned electric power steering. There's also a Track Handling Package for gas-fueled models that combines Variable Sport Steering, Adaptive M Suspension and M Sport Brakes with high-temperature pads. The nav system accepts over-the-air map updates now, as well. You certainly can't see all of the changes on the outside, though. For the 2016 3 Series, BMW's designers tweak the front fascia slightly and update the headlights. LED units are optional on the 320i, 328i, and 328d, and they're standard on the 340i. The rear features reshaped LED taillights, and inside there's additional ambient lighting and chrome trim. In one other small adjustment, the look of the Sport Line package with black trim on the grille, B-pillars and rear bumper is now included on the 328i, 328d and 340i.

BMW Concept M4 GTS shows its face in Monterey
Fri, Aug 14 2015Late last night, we showed you the BMW Concept M4 GTS, one-off production preview fitted with innovative OLED taillights, a water-injection system, and a suite of aerodynamic upgrades. Now, we have live images. These shots come from the scene of the debut, at one of Pebble Beach's numerous palatial estates. In natural light, we can see the M4 GTS as it really is. Both the Frozen Dark Grey paint and orange accents look far better, with the chin spoiler and wheels featuring an almost anodized appearance. The semi-matte nature of the paint also shows through, giving the Concept M4 GTS a more sinister look. We also remarked last night on the clash between the yellow calipers and orange wheel accents. But as the live photos show, the calipers appear more gold than yellow. There's still a pretty harsh contrast between the two shades, but it's better than it looked last night. Check out our entire gallery of live images of the new Concept M4 GTS, available at the top of the page. BMW Concept M4 GTS to be Premiered During Monterey Car Week. The First M3/ M4 Special Production Car to be Sold in the US. Woodcliff Lake, N.J. – EMBARGO: August 13, 2015 – 9:00pm EDT/6:00pm PDT...A year on from the launch of the BMW M4 Coupe, BMW M GmbH is presenting an initial preview of a high-performance model for use on the road and on the race track: the BMW Concept M4 GTS – the first M3/M4 special production vehicle to be sold in the US. The BMW M GmbH was founded in 1972 as BMW Motorsport GmbH and caused a sensation with its iconic BMW M1 racing car.
