1974 BMW 2002 TII

1974 BMW 2002Tii numbers match California car, VIN 2781011, now living in North Carolina. 02's are getting harder to find and Tii's are the most difficult. This car is in excellent shape mechanically and needs complete paint and chrome. Complete mechanical overhaul done by many highly sought-after race car/restoration experts in S.CA.

Tens of thousands spent on all mechanical updates and have receipts or all work done.

What's left to do is all paint and chrome work. Body was rust free when I moved to NC approx. 3 years ago and even though garaged, the humid environment has created some rust bubbles. Nothing damaging the structural integrity of the car, all cosmetic. Chrome needs to be redone on bumpers. No radio installed but fully wired with speakers in footwells and have 8” subwoofer with custom under rear seat box. I have complete Beher AC system that needs to be installed. Complete with all components and wiring. Probably needs to be rebuilt but have all interior panels and assorted parts for installation. Car cover included.

Have many misc parts that I have collected over time included with sale.
