RonR's 1969 BMW 2002 - Schwarz Car
This is a
late 1969 BMW 2002 that was originally titled as a 1970. I bought the
car in 1994. In the spring of 1999 I decided
to completely redo the car. After a great deal of work the car is
totally rust free and the following modifications were made.
Engine:
JE aluminum
forged pistons with Total Seal rings
TEP head with S/S valves
TEP header (ceramic coated) with S/S pipes and S/S
exhaust
Electric actuated side exhaust dump (crazy)
Innovate Motorsports O2 controller and
gauge
MSD Digital Ignition with Pertronics mag' pickup
45 DCOE Webers with
Special Intake, S/S hard fuel lines and S/S braided flex lines
Custom fabricated S/S strut brace
5 speed transmission
Urethane motor and transmission mounts
3 row core radiator
Suspension/Brakes/Driveline:
Bilstein
Sport Shocks
H&R springs
Urethane bushings all around
Ireland Engineering front and rear sway bars
Adjustable front castor and camber
15" Panasports (15x6x29mm) with Bridgestone
Potenza RE-11 tires (195/50/15)
Front big brakes and rear disc brakes
5 speed transmission and 3.91:1 LSD
Interior/Exterior:
320is Recaros with rear seat upholstered to match
Schroth 4 point harness

Momo Competition steering wheel
VDO gauges - oil temp., oil press., voltage

Auto Cross:
I put the
little monster to some use and auto crossed with the Ozark's Mountain Region
SCCA chapter. It was a lot of fun trying different adjustments on the
car. I was not not the fastest guy out there but I did enjoy working on my driving and I got a
lot of compliments on the looks. Albeit the competition was a little
thin in FSP, I did manage to win the FSP class.
