Hello all, I was told I needed to do a build thread on my car so.... here I am . Nothing too special but here we go.
This is my 72 BMW 2002 not a 2002 BMW ???? which my local parts store asks me everytime I go in.. gotta love farm communities in the Midwest. Anywho, originally it is a California car that about 10 yrs ago was brought to Missouri. Before me, there were two owners, and with both the car sat in storage and wasn't driven for some reason. When we originally got it it ran like crap and needed cleaned up which we slowly have done and now I actually daily drive the car for the most part. Now on to the mods.

Sadly, being the genious I am, I have like no pics of when we got the car. So... I only have a couple older pics but most are current.
This would have been about March, my E21 in the back ground being sad because it just sits now.
But lets jump to know, nothing really major has changed. Sorry for the crappy pics, hopefully better ones coming soon.
The interior:
The exterior:
Future plans include:
MK1 clamp on roof rack (good luck)
Weber dual side draft carbs
A drop of some kind, only about 2 or 3 inches, leaning towards GC's and Koni's
Drive it. Like cars are suppose to be, not just sit in a garage.
