About this blog
I suppose I'll start this blog with a little history on my time with this car.. The year is 2004, I'm 16 years old and I've just purchased this Verona Red 1972 BMW 2002Tii for $1500. The Tii engine isn't in the car, but rather sitting on an old tire while a carbureted replacement is installed. My dad and I go through the car, replacing the brakes, clutch, etc and get it fit for driving. For the next year or so I slowly gather the parts to build the Tii motor, get the car painted, and redo the interior. There's some old posts on here documenting those days, but unfortunately the photo links no longer work.
Here's what the car looked like back then...
