You are bidding on a nice example of the fuel injected version 2002 tii. 1974 was the final year for the tii. Past history shows this to be one of the better investment cars today. Has the correct 278 vin code indicating a tii. All factory vin tags in place and match the title. Still retains the original owners manuals as well as the desirable BMW service manuals. This BMW has never undergone a full on restoration and other than paint is largely original. Appears to have had good ownership through the years, maintained and repaired as needed, more of a survivor car in my opinion.Description as follows:
Mechanical: (most work performed within the last 2000 miles by prior owner)
• Correct tii drive train, manual trans
• New tires, new belts, hoses and vacuum lines
• Recent cooling system overhaul with thermostat and water pump
• Recent tune up, plug wire etc.
• Recent alternator
• Rebuilt tii calipers with stainless steel lines
• Newer muffler/ tail pipe. Center exhaust resonator appears original and while still functional may need to be replaced in the future?
• Recent shifter rebuild with bushings
• Everything works with exception of horn, and a stubborn sunroof operation, I have not attempted to investigate, may be alignment or lubrication?
Interior:
• Factory black bucket seat interior. Most of interior appears to be original with the exception of carpet and salt and pepper style floor mats. Small repair on drivers seat.
• All gauges work properly, vintage Blaupunkt AM/FM radio
• Nice aftermarket steering wheel, not sure of brand
• Hard to believe, crack free dash
Exterior:
• All exterior chrome and trim in very good condition, upper belt line molding has a few dings
• Front and rear bumpers very nice, vintage amber fog/driving lights.
• All glass very nice, passenger window can be difficult to go up and down?
• Exterior has had a repaint, shows and shines well.
• Clean trunk and engine compartment
• Solid unrepaired trunk and spare tire well. Shock towers appear to be untouched and solid. Rocker panels good on both sides. 2 small areas onfloor have been repaired. Remainder of underside very nice.
In closing, as mentioned earlier a very nice car as is, maintained accordingly. Has never underwent a restoration but would be a great candidate to do so, or do like the prior owners have, just drive it and enjoy it. Please take the time to review all the pics and don’t hesitate to call with further questions. 517-425-0129. I also have contact with a reasonable shipping company and would be glad to assist.
