1975 BMW 2002

My initial search for a nice 2002 here in the east coast was unsuccessful. Most had rust issues which I did not want to tackle or either the sellers were unrealistic with the price. My search then turned to the west coast. I found one that was perfect for what I wanted to do. Rust was very minimal, body was good overall, and basic mechanicals were a good base. I have worked on this car for about 2 years on and off when time permitted. The following has been done:

New stock BMW head gasket used, new BMW head bolts used

There is probably some things I have forgotten to mention but as you can see above, I have done a

lot of work to this car. One thing that I have not had the chance to do is to weld in a small piece to replace a rust hole on the rear driver side floor pan (rust was cut out). Horn wiring needs to be looked at as horn does not work currently.
