NO RESERVE
I am bringing you a rare Barn-find of 1973 BMW 2002 Roundie in rare Riviera color with evenrarer Automatic in excellent driving conditionwhich I found and bought from it's 2'nd owner.
The previous owner had bought the car in 1992 from its original owner and the car was daily driven until 7 years ago when it became a once a month driver.
When I boughtthe car, itwas missing the front BMW Emblem and the rear one was faded, I put new onesand drove her homeandhave been driving it daily. Flushed the cooling system, Changed oil and replace the ignition Point with Pertronicselectronic ignition.
Driver door was replaced from a 1976 BMW 2002 due to having some rust on the outer skin and was replaced and painted poorly.
The previous owner was hands on and maintained it himself, since he also owned couple of old beetles and 2 older minis. So there are no service records.
The good:
-Great base to daily drive and re-storeas you go-Original rare Riviera color-California Blue plate car with original tags-Practically rust free California car (Besides all the placesshown in pictures that are covered by Rustproofingclear coat and the rear passenger foot-well which he cut and welded the floor)-Runs and drives without hesitation andcruises at 80 MPH with no hesitation-Drives straight -Brakes well-Good tires (a least 75% tread, they look new!)-Starts right up even when cold-No visible oil leaks or spotting even afterdriven and parked over night-Front grills are in excellent shape.-All light work (Except left signals)-Original seats (Driver bottom Cushion has a tear + rear seat back rest is torn from sun on top as shown in pictures)-Original carpet ( Still very nice)-Original Headliner ( has 3 small holes in it, ask for the picture and I will email them to you)-Engine does not smoke -Good windshield-New Battery-Chrome Bumpers in excellent shape for their age, not rusted and have good rubbers all around, not dry or rotted inside(Worth $2,000 alone)-blower motor works-Heater works-Horn works-Wiper motor works-All belt-line aluminum trim still present and in decent shape (Included with the sale)-All Gauges, RPM and Speedometer work -Period correct Blaupunkt Cassette playerin good working condition (I had which I put in but did not hook upand hasextra drive-belt taped to the top surface of it)
Things needing attention:

I am open to FaceTime, just contact me and I can arrange for a time convenient so one can see the car if seeing it in person is not a possibility for one.
Also I can send more detailed photos of the under-carriage. I just could not do more than 24 photos which is maximum allowed by ebay.
Come see and drive it in person. It won't last with no reserve.
