1969 Bmw 1600 California Black Plate on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
|
See more pictures here: This is an original (almost) rust free California Black plate car. The car is ORIGINAL. All the numbers match and other than the center console (pictured) there have been no modifications to the car.
The car was purchased from Oceanview Motors in Santa Monica California in 1969. I bought the car from the original owner in 1997 in Pasadena California.
The mileage is unknown as the speedo cable snapped several years ago. However the car has not been driven beyond my immediate neighborhood since then. When the cable snapped the odometer was reading appx 103k. If I had to guess it has about 5k more than that.
Engine: Runs strong, not powerful...its a small motor...but it runs strong. Original Carb rebuilt 3 years ago. Radiator replaced 4 years ago. Water pump and thermostat and all hoses replaced last week. The air pump is disconnected and could use a new bracket...or just removal.
Transmission: Original. The synchros and gears are in perfect working order. I clutch does not slip and feels great, but I cannot remember when it was last replaced.
Electrical: there are a few gremlins here. The interior lighting does not work. The gas guage does not work. The heater motor is dead and is disconnected. All exterior lights work and the battery is brand new.
Brakes: Perfect.
Tires: 90% tread all around.
Suspensions: All bushings replaced 5 years ago with stock bushings. Shocks also replaced 5 years ago with stock (Boge?) shocks.
Exterior: The pictures should tell the story here. The paint is original and is DONE! It needs paint or a garage immediately (this is the main reason that I am letting it go). There are two small dents in the hood. One fist sized dent on the front fender. There is no bondo, no rust, and no evidence of any body work ever. One of the windshield wipers needs reassembly. The antenna needs new mounting clips.
Interior: The interior is rough...as you can see. All the parts are there but it needs a complete overhaul. The car does come with a new carpet kit (still in the box) ready for install, and the original radio and center console which would need to be re-assembled and installed. The windshield rear-view mirror is broken and needs to be replaced. The door mirrors look good but both tend to go loose and need to be tightened up often.
Overall: This is an AWESOME car for someone with the time and resources to finish it off.
The car is located in North Los Angeles and is available for test drives. Just send me an email.
I have not listed a price as I am going to sell it to the highest bidder on Ebay in a no reserve auction. However, please feel free to email me if you have would like to make an offer before the close of the auction. I have decided it is time to let her go. The car will be sold at the close of the auction. |

Feds greenlight BMW X5 diesel sales for 2016 [UPDATE]
Fri, Dec 11 2015Update: The EPA also confirmed that the 2016 X5 diesel passed the tests in a statement: "EPA and the California Air Resources Board certified BMW's 2016 diesel X5. EPA is performing additional screening when it conducts confirmatory emissions tests before issuing a certificate. Our screening tests found no evidence of a defeat device in the 2016 BMW X5, concluding our certification review." The 2016 BMW X5 xDrive35d is the latest diesel model to pass rigorous emissions tests by the Environmental Protection Agency and prove that it doesn't circumvent regulations with a defeat device. The luxury SUV can now go on sale to customers, and BMW spokesman Hector Arellano-Belloc confirms to Autoblog the first of them should arrive at dealers around late January. The automaker previously delayed production of the new model at the Spartanburg plant until the EPA completed certification. Following Volkswagen's emissions cheating, the EPA, California Air Resources Board, and Environment Canada began stricter testing for diesel vehicles to ensure that they met regulations. The first models to get the additional scrutiny were the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon with the Duramax engine, and they passed with no problems. According to Reuters, the X5 diesel was the only other non-VW from the 2016 model year that the agencies needed to certify with this more rigorous evaluation. The 2016 X5 xDrive 35d starts at $58,695 after the $995 destination charge. A 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine sends 255 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque through an eight-speed automatic to the all-wheel drive system. BMW claims that the vehicle can reach 60 miles per hour in 6.5 seconds, and the 2015 model carries an EPA fuel economy rating of 24 miles per gallon city, 31 mpg highway, and 27 mpg combined.

BMW increases i3 price by $1,075 for 2015
Thu, Jan 29 2015The BMW i3 did well in its first year on the market, selling 6,02 units in the US and 16,052 units worldwide. For 2015, it gets total price increase of $1,075, partially reflecting new standard equipment that was formerly an option and a bump in its destination cost. The 2014 starting price of $41,350 becomes $42,400 for 2015, an extra $1,050, and the destination increase of $25 to $950 makes the out-the-door price $43,350. The range-extended model goes up by the same amount, from $45,200 last year to $46,250 this year. After destination, it's $47,200 out the door. For 2015, DC Fast Charging is included, no longer a $700 option, thanks to the expansion of the fast-charging network through a collaboration between BMW, Volkswagen and Chargepoint. Beyond that, satellite radio and heated seats migrate to the standard features list. We have a feeling none of this will hurt the plug-in car's sales momentum this year.
