Not that familiar with 2002's but don't they generally have obnoxious front and rear bumpers like any other US spec car? Or was this car a grey market car?

Here's mine, it's a '76. Good example in terms of being a polar opposite in regards to US spec stuff, big bumpers, big turn signals, side markers, black plastic grilles, etc.

Oh, and *cough* http://www.bmw2002faq.com/component/...opic/t,318050/ my resto pics.

Charlie,

If I'm not mistaken yours is a cali 76 right? Did you remove the smog pump, ERG valve, misc relays, thermal reactor, ect? That shit will take about 80 lbs out of your engine bay.

We forgot the worst part about the 74-76 2002s - square tail lights!

Yea, all that shit was long gone. It's got a non-thermal reactor header on it, pump and everything else is removed.

Looks like a great project. I need to pick up another '02

Btw, a fresh 1600 is actually quite peppy with the long neck 4.10

Yeah, I've still got the long neck diff and 3 piece driveshaft. I'm a little skeptical about the mechanical clutch though.
