Meet more 02 owners.

Scout out more local 2002's

Finish one thing on the 69 like getting the bodywork started or building the engine.

Drive the tii in another HDPE

Paint the walls and floor in my garage.

Hang up some of my rolled up posters in the painted garage.

Take a nice vacation with my wife [we were just discussing visiting France (Nick Vyse is a top priority)].

Learn more about the history of BMW.

 

 

There are others - work for the both of us always gets in the way.

 

 

 


1.  Get Lucas fuel treatment in all the '02's, well except the non-running parts car!

2.  Start the driving season earlier so I can get all the tanks emptied & re-fuel with Sunoco 93!

2.  Install SS brake lines on Hugo ('72tii)

3.  Get a nice set of wheel dollies so I can move Atlantik ('73tii) around in the garage easier!  Those puppies are expensive!

4.  Change oil & filters, fuel filters, coolant, brake fluid in all '02's.

5.  Drive an '02 to the Hershey Hill Climb in the Spring!

6.  Drive more!

 I'd like to see your cars in person...

My list is sadly too long to put down :( 

I'm starting the resto after Christmas, First is subframe restoration and then I'll move to the suspension and then build the cylinder head.  I figure thats enough time and money for 2014.  I want to do in such a way that I can enjoy the car this summer and not get burnt out with it.

I've got a few things to tackle during 2014.

 

-Swapping to coilovers

-Swapping from my 32/36 to either a 38/38 or dual 40's

-Rewiring my entire engine bay

-Possibly repainting the car

-Pulling all my suspension out when I get the coilovers and regreasing and changing out all nuts and bolts and relock tighting everything

I would say the goal in '14 is to spend more on gas than parts and repairs, if at all possible.  

 

I am going to tear into my doors - 15 little jobs masquerading as one - "fix the doors."  

 

Get my speedo / odo fixed from No Hollywood.  Tired of screwing with it. 

 

Events - I'm going to Vintage again, and I'm going to Amelia Island in March.  Maybe Saratoga - it looks cool.  Some Coffee and Cars at Fuel here in Cincy, for sure.

 

Other planned on highlights:  Seeing JB's Inka roadworthy, and getting a ride in Jason's newly minted screamer.

Build the stroker M10 for the Orange car. 2300 CC's, 12.5 C/R, big cam, Weber 48's or 50's. Should have enough power to use all the tire and keep up at AMP and Road Atlanta.
