White Slicktop Roundie Stainless Header, Ansa Tips, Yakima Rack on 2040-cars

Before I begin I would encourage all serious buyers to contact me directly at: 517-425-0129. Although this is a 7 day auction I reserve the right to end early.

You are looking at a 1972 BMW 2002 with the desirable round tail lights. Recently purchased, don't have a whole lot of history on the car but I believe its priced very fair and its a good opportunity to get into the collectable BMW market. I'll be painfully honest with the description and perhaps even a bit harsh. While bidding please bear in mind that this car cannot go to the next Concourse event , nor will the walls of your garage be laden with trophies from showing the car every weekend. However, this is the perfect car to take as it is, don't do a full-on, nut and bolt restoration, just drive it. Heck, teach your kids to drive a stick and don't be afraid to let them drive it to school. Take it for a spin and if it rains, so what? Throw the dogs in the back seat, roll the windows down and you'll still turn heads with this neat little '02. Good multi-purpose car, throw your bikes on the roof rack, don't worry about that next door ding......I think you get the idea. Description as follows:

Mechanical:
*Original M10 4 cylinder
*4 speed manual
*Stainless header
*Ansa Exhaust tip
*New tires
*Rebuilt Weber 32/36 carb (manual choke), may need some fine tuning, seems a bit rich
*Clutch/brakes feel fine
*Fresh tune-up: Plugs, wires, distributor cap and rotor
*New Engine compartment fuel lines and filter
*New water pump and thermostat; radiator flush, fresh coolant
*Fresh oil/filter
Overall, the car starts/runs/drives good, few shakes/rattles, couple of electrical gremlins (someone had a problem with the turn signal switch, opted to install toggle to replace the factory switch. Heater fan non-op as well. Some of the electrical issues may be due to the 4-way switch? Person with the right abilities could probably have it squared away in a long weekend

Interior:
*Black bucket seat interior
*No radio
*Momo steering wheel
*Newer carpet
*Good headliner
*Overall interior condition very good

Exterior:
*Decent repaint to Alpine White (car was originally white)
*Ireland Engineering front fascia and rear Euro-style bumper
*Molded turbo-style flares
*New Yakima rack with 2 bike attachments
*Vintage 13" OZ Racing Ceres basketweave wheels
*Overall paint and bodywork acceptable but somewhat amateur. Has had the typical 2002 rust and rust repair (spare tire well, portions of floor repaired, one rocker replaced)

Once again, great little driver, not a candidate for restoration in my opinion due to existing rust/repair. Priced accordingly, lot of bang for the buck. Please take the time to review all pics, don't hesitate to call with any questions 517-425-0129. I also have contact with a reasonable shipping company and would be glad to assist. Vehicle offered by Rare Rides, a licensed Michigan dealer.
