After 10 reliable years, I must say goodbye to my trusted steed -- a 1972 2002 BMW -- Chaminox with original black/blue interior.

Life, marriage, children, and work tend to dominate one's time. To the point where I've been unable to find the time to give the attention this classic piece of automotive history deserves.

Cliff Notes: The car runs strong. A lot of things work, and a lot of things don't. It's a great candidate for restoration. Although I'd hate to see this baby parted out - it could be a gold mine in parts.

Location: Nashville, TN

Photos: Photos posted here

Details: With exception of the carburator and 320i radiator, the '02 is all original.

• Car was bought at auction so the number of owners is unknown as is the total mileage.
• I have extensive and detailed records for anything and everything for the past 10 years.
• Although the car is a "daily driver", I work from home so it gets driven less than 50 miles a week. I recently purchased second car so now the '02 doesn't get driven at all.

Interior: All original.

• Back seat is perfect.
• Front seats (bottom) have cracks. Dash has 1 crack in the center.
• Carpet is in great shape (back) - needs replaced in front.
• Seat belts work.
• Headliner is a little dirty but no rips.
• Speedometer works but reads about 20mph under.
• Odometer stopped working about a year ago.
• Killer AM/FM CD player with amazing speakers (probably worth more than the car) : (2) under back seat and (2) tweeters in installed in center window supports.
• Heater/Air motor works but the sound it makes is too annoying to use -- needs to be rebuilt.

Exterior:

• Rocker panels and shock towers are solid -- no rust.
• Body and is pretty good but the rust is starting to set in. Two primary areas are the lip of the trunk lid and the top-back corners of the rear windows.
• (1) hood support needs replaced.
• Trunk is in good shape - some rust under spare tire but does NOT need replaced.
• Gas tank is solid (already replaced)
• Tires have plenty of tred
• Original rims and hubcaps!

Mechanical

Like I listed earlier, the car runs good.

• Muffler needs replaced.
• Clutch is starting to go
• Brakes are good
• Headlights and brights work
• Blinkers work but the control stalk is a bit finicky (you have to hold it in place)
• Engine only leaks a tiny amount of oil.
• No other fluid leaks

Again, this is a great car for restoration with many great features just waiting to be polished.
