[BrianMR1987]

1971 BMW 2002 -Nevada 

Registered in South Dakota though has never been there

Nevada car currently in NorCal

 

$7500

 

 

Built late 1970 but was not sold until 1971, it has the 6 fuse box from the pre 1971 cars and some parts on the car on half post 71 have pre 71. Quirky interior and sunroof installed many years ago. I was told I am the 4th owner by the previous, and that the sunroof(does not leak), A/C and seats where dealer option done by the original owner. Car sat the awhile with the 2nd owner but has been made into a deceit driver status by myself and the previous. Looking to sell and move onto another car and going a different direction. I believe price is fair for condition and completeness of the car. Comes with a few boxes or interior bits, lights, manuals, spare parts, etc.

Down to $7500 now - I'm pretty close to this car if anybody want's a proxy inspection.

I just can't get past that pop-up aftermarket sunroof.

You and me both! I look at it and say "roof swap needed"!

I believe it sold on eBay for $6,200 or thereabouts.
