1972 BMW 2002 Additional Info:

Ok everyone, Welcome!
Here is a super rare find Engine and Vin number matching 2002ti that I am bringing you.
Please read it carefully as it is of great importance to understand why the car is so rare and why its a chance of a lifetime to own a very rare piece of BMW history.
History of the 2002ti models:
The 2002tidesignation becameknown sincethe 2002tiwon the 24 Hours Nuerburgring race in 1970. Also the 2002ti was not the only BMW model that carried the "ti" badge. All cars which carriedthe "ti" badge had a sportier engine with twin side-draft race carburetors,andit alsorepresented lighter and sportier models, similarly to the "is" badge in current generation 335iS with the exception that they were usually light-weight cars.
This car was originally ordered byaPersiangentleman residing in France whom was also a champion in Rally racing from the famous "World Touring of IranianRally Federation" in Shah time.He ordered this very rareTi Spec. car andtook it to ALPINA and had them install their roll cage and tail lightsandrace clutch.
He raced this car in Rallies across Europe and the middle east (As his Authentic Badge on the grill shows) and enjoyed this car for a few years withso very fewmileswhich he put on since he also used Mini coopers also for rally races.
In 1978 due to Iranian revolution his race license, passport and celebrity status made the car unreachable and therefore he leftat his homein France until 1999 when he had the car brought to the U.S.
The car has since been restored to it's original glory with $9,000 paint job. The car was originally Malaga and he changed it to Inka during restoration in 2006.
Here is the list of all parts that this car has, some of which can not be found orsourced any longer:
-ALPINA roll cage including rear strut cage attached to the shock towers (Worth $3,500 U.S.D)-Genuine period correct Dino Steering Wheel (Worth $1,800)-Gold BBS 13" wheels (Worth $1,800)-Newer Crack free Dash and Gauges-Cocoa mats-original AM/FM radio with One speaker in the center consul -New set of ALPINA French tail lights with Orange reverse lights (Worth $700 each)-Ansa Race Exhaust-40 Side Draft Webber carbs-Newly replaced windshield and gaskets-Original set of front grills in like new shape (they are original to the car)-Recaro Race seats with red stitching and race harness seatbelts-California Mirrors-French Euro amber front signals
I have many pictures and can take some more detailed photos if desired. Also the car currently has a 4-Speed transmission and original ALPINA race clutch.Included in this auction is also a 5-Speed rebuilt transmission which will come with the car and you can either have it transported with the car within the U.S. or have it shipped separately and pay for shipping cost if being shipped internationally.
The car is Free of any rust as it was always garaged.
Super Rare, clean and a once in life time opportunity.
The car is currently registered and titled in my name in California.
The last picture also shows a newly restored 1976 Resto-mod which is also available with no Reserve. Please see my other Auction for a very nice reliable and affordable daily driver.
Good luck!
