1975 BMW 2002

  • In 1975 there were only about 10,442 BMW 2002 imported into the US. This one is in a very rare, factory color called mint green (Mintgrun).
  • With the vehicle I have history going back to day one including a window sticker, and original sale receipt. The owner had traded in a 1966 Ford Mustang as a down payment to get this car…! 😀
  • Back in 1975 this car cost the owner $7,094.
  • The car has been repainted once in its factory color. The paint job is really nice. I would rate it 8.5/10. There are a few tiny scratches, imperfections.
  • The interior is really clean, and tidy.
  • The dash is nice, but it does have 2 hairline cracks in it.
  • Undercarriage is completely rust free.
  • The single carb. has just been rebuilt as well as the brakes. They received a 2 piston upgrade. The car stops on a dime!
What can be improved?
The driver door latch / receiver needs to be replaced. When you hit bumps you can hear the door not being held in place because the latch / receiver is worn out.
The steering has a little bit of play. The carburator has been rebuilt, but it still needs a little adjusting. If you press the throttle 20% it has a dead spot, but if you give it more gas it accelerates very quickly.
There is an exhaust leak and you can hear a clicking noise. The shifting boot needs to be replaced.

1970 Volvo P1800 E

Beautiful, excellent running and driving car with 4-speed transmission and electric overdrive. Brakes are very good!! Stops on a dime.
Nice 2nd paint with a few imperfection (locks painted over, few chips) 8/10. Original color Steel blue Metallic (color code 102).
Complete and clean interior in leather with a few imperfections.
The trunk has an area with some serious surface rust which needs to be treated. Otherwise the car is rust free! Undercarriage is super solid!
What could be better ? The fan shroud needs to be replaced, and the radiator cap is not correct for the car because it drips some water since it doesn’t lock it properly.
