1973 Bmw 2002 Tii - Original California Sunroof Car on 2040-cars
Folsom, California, United States
|
If you’re reading this ad, I don’t need to explain to you what a 2002 tii is. What you’re looking at here is a 20 year old restoration of a 40 year old car. We are the 4th owner and the car has been in California its entire life. I want this car to go to someone who knows what they are getting, so if you have any questions after reading this posting, please let me know. Like all abandon restoration projects, this one has a story. My son and I bought this car about 3 years ago as a father/son project. The first year, we got the car running well, did a ton of work on all the safety related stuff, and just went after fixing all the little things that needed immediate attention. We also started sourcing parts for the build. About that time, my son got more interested in girls, so we never got around to doing the body and interior. He recently left the country and is serving his military duty overseas for the next two years, so we have jointly decided to sell the car. His only request was that we find a good home for it who will love it as much as we have. The body is very solid with only the surface rust and a minor paint bubbling in a few spots. This was originally a Polaris silver car. When restored, the car was painted an off -white color which is pretty hazy and faded, but because it was professionally prepped when the car was restored, it's held up pretty well. The texture you may notice under the rear bumper is actually undercoating that the previous owner had applied when they re-sprayed the car. This has protected the undercarriage nicely, and the critical points (rockers, fenders, and shock towers) are all solid and rust free. Note the interior panels were replaced behind rear seat, package shelf, and front kick panels by a restoration shop that is known for their work with older cars. This was done to cover holes left behind by the massive sound system installation that the previous owner had put in the car. The car starts easy and runs strong. The engine has good compression and makes great power, but does have a minor oil pan leak. In its current condition, the car could be used as a reliable daily driver as it sits. However, it’s in a condition that makes it worthy of investing in. It would not take much to get the minor problems corrected, and it would be a great candidate for a full original resto, or resto-mod. Overview of the car:
New or replaced since we've owned the car:
Things that I know need work:
Extras on hand that come with the car:
I've tried to cover everyting I can think of, but please let me know if any questions. I can assist with shipping and/or delivery anywhere within Northern California. I'm not listing it locally, so any external inquires will be referred to bid here until the auction is closed. Thanks for looking! |

The List: The Red BMW - A Retrospective
Mon, 23 Dec 2013We can't help but use this time of year to look back at the days before and reminisce about friends who are no longer in our lives. For The List, Jessi and Patrick were often joined by a little, red BMW 3 Series that, at times, felt like a third host of the show. Having been bought used for just a thousand bucks, the red BMW proved to be surprisingly durable. Through jumps, dunks and monster trucks, it remained our little trooper 'till the very end, and on the way taught us all how important a faithful four-wheeled companion is to the life's work of completing one's automotive bucket list.
For our last episode of The List in 2013, we give you The Red BMW - A Retrospective.

Behind the scenes of BMW's 'Drift Mob,' Part 1
Sat, 28 Jun 2014Generally speaking, marketing and journalism don't mix, but every now and then, what goes into the marketing of a car - the 2015 BMW M235i, in this case - is worth documenting. In that spirit, we took BMW up on its offer to bring us behind the scenes of its upcoming "drift mob" video, starring five red M235i coupes frolicking around a traffic circle in a major world city (BMW has asked us to be coy about which one so as not to blow its cover before the shoot).
The five drivers can all be considered legends of modern-day drifting and stunt driving: Rhys Millen, Samuel Hübinette, Dai Yoshihara, Rich Rutherford and Conrad Grunewald.
As the only US media outlet in attendance, Autoblog plans to follow up with a full story on the experience once BMW polishes and releases the video in a month or so. In the meantime, check out our photos of this epic practice session we captured on our first day hanging with the crew, and be sure to watch this space for more behind-the-scenes action.

Tue, 28 May 2013BMW's Best 1 Series Gives Back What You Put In
Every once in a while, I find myself, despite my solitary leanings and inherent modesty, working out in some kind of class setting. The tone and tenor of these classes ranges wildly - from the quiet, follow-the-leader variety, to those with a kind of Cult of Personality man or woman calling the shots, usually with idiom-laden shouting and theatrical hair. Despite their personal variation and range of professional effectiveness, there's one common concept that most instructors bring up at some point: working with intention.
The idea, as it relates to physical fitness, is that focusing your brain on the movement at hand - the rate of your own breathing, or the muscle groups being worked for instance - helps to perform the act efficiently and correctly. Having spent a happy majority of the last decade in an exercise-free near-debauch, I was a bit surprised to find out that this kind of mental game really works pretty well.
