Michael's BMW 2002
Plain and simple. I'm new to 2002's and Bimmers in general. I've so far been majorly into Turbocharged chryslers.. If you want to check them out go here. I've recently aquired this decently shaped 74 non sunroof non tii Sahara colored 2002. I have Big plans in store for my own personalization of this classic automobile. Have a look around, check it out and let me know what you think.
Me on the ferry during the BMWCCBC harrison fun run
Four 02's and a CS in the middle
Thats THREE sahara cars. My 74 in front, Rons 73 and AL's 76 near the back! How many Saharas are out there?!?!?
This is the engine compartment about a week after I bought it.. Looking slightly better.. but nowhere near what I want it to be like.. since this picture it's received a header, some paint and lots of cleaning...
Car came with a 32/36 topped by a heinous looking K&N setup. ------->
Here she is approaching the ferry after I finally got most of the trim back on. The previous owner took off the rocker covers, bumper covers, side trim and BMW emblems as well as the 2002 emblem. Looks better.. but still not quite perfect..
The Car is back on the road with a lowering springs and a new rear control arm! Ever wonder why your 02'  has some funny negative camber on the rear? check out the control arms. Mine was rusted right through!
