Vehicle Detail
Im relisting my car. This time with NO RESERVE!!! Starting bid is $2002! +++ Unfortunately my time has been cut short with my Touring and I must sell. (very sadly!) As you may know, Tourings were never officially imported into the US and are thus inherently rare. There are only a handful of these over here (in my guestimates no more than 20 or 30). They also had a short production run from 1971 to early 1974. These cars are becoming increasingly harder to find, especially a Touring! This one has been super fun to drive around and drives like a champ! VIN 3359814 – Manufactured on June, 20th, 1973 Delivered on June 27th, 1973 to the BMW importer Förenade Bil Import in Malmö, Sweden Original colour: Verona, paint code 024 Located in Colorado Springs, CO. You can contact me with any questions. Serious inquiries only please. Thanks for looking and happy driving! I've posted as much info i can think of about the Touring along with pictures here: http://classicbimmers.futska.com/2013/02/06/for-sale-1973-bmw-2000-touring-verona-red/ A SUMMARY: I will try to present this car as honestly as I can. Please keep in mind though; it is a 40 year old car. I’ve owned this car since October 2011. I brought this over from Sweden for myself and went through the whole export process through Sweden, fees, importing into the US, fees, transport, titling and registration in the US, more fees, and risk! Needless to say it was quite a deal of work, time, and expense involved. I currently hold a valid CO state Title and Registration. Vin on motor, body, vin plate, rear hatch plate all match. BODY: From what I can tell, the car is dry. I have not sanded, grinded, or removed any paint so my description is what I can see. There are a few rust bubbles showing through the rear wheel arches. The front and rear shock tower mounts are solid and rust free (driver rear shock mount is starting to see a very small sliver of rust). Spare tire well is very clean. Frame rails look clean. Rockers appear to be good. Floor pans appear good. Overall, its in really good shape. Great to just enjoy and drive, or a great candidate to restore because of the lack of too much rust. Whats been done on it: COOLING: Original Radiator – Cleaned out ALL New cooling hoses and clamps New T-stat and Water pump New BMW coolant FUEL & IGNITION SYSTEM: Weber 36 DCD 2bbl made in Italy New rubber fuel lines from tank to the carburetor Tune up – replaced all plugs, wires, cap, rotor, air filter, fuel filter, etc. TRANNY & DRIVELINE: Transmission fluid replaced w/ Redline MTL Shifter is tight and does not grind into any gears Various new seals in the Tranny – there is some leakage still New Flex disk (guibo) New Center support bearing New Rear diff Input shaft seal, both output shaft seals, and cover gasket Rear Differential Fluid replaced w/ Redline Both Rear Halfshafts redone w/ new boots and grease BRAKES: New Rear drums and shoes New Rear rubber brake lines New rear brake cylinders 4 front rubber lines are included but not installed front rotors and pads are in good shape New brake fluid ENGINE: New Alternator belt Oil changed Some leaking, not exactly sure where from. Not too bad though in my opinion. INTERIOR: Interior is in really good original shape. Headliner has no tears. Original corduroy seats are good but may need a restuff at some point, there is some frying is some locations. Euro Dash is in nice shape, a few cracks but not terrible in my opinion. MISC: New Touring trunk tool box!!! VERY Rare factory option towhook w/ BMW logo orange cover 320i Alloy Wheels 2 NEW trap mirrors (worth $150+ each) New speedo cable All lights, gauges, heater motor, wipers work! gauge cluster restored - km and mph speedos are included 1 Front fog light is broken – but a new light will be included! It was hard to find! All glass is in good condition. The Front windscreen New fuses New classic wiper blades A pile of paperwork for work I’ve done And probably a bunch of little stuff I’m forgetting A few random extras might be included depending on what I have left This is a great car that is a blast to drive!!!ONLY reason for selling – I am moving out of the country! I never intended to sell this! If you have questions please ask and we can talk over the phone. Serious inquiries only please. About this auction:?
