This listing is for my first born.  

This car was purchased new on 7/25/1972.  I was 17.  I am the absolute only owner and can tell you anything you could possibly ask me about it.  The auction is for a 1972.5 Atlantic Blue 2002.  The 1972.5 Model included a 2 barrel carb (not available on the 1972 model) and the signature round tail lights (1972 was the last year these were used). The car went through a MAJOR refresh in 2003, with a new coat of paint, front 'bumper' paint, new interior upholstery, and a new CD player.  In 2006, new brakes, clutch, and flywheel were put in.  The odometer broke after a service in 2011, but I can personally tell you it was around 141,000 miles when it broke and has been driven sparingly since (under 1,000 miles).  The car starts up every year, and is currently running with no problems.  Once the engine warms up a little, its all systems go!  If the car sits idle for too long, it may need a battery charge (as is common in any older car).  A BMW gear shift was put in as well (see pictures).  Historic plates have been on the car for the last decade plus.  

Unfortunately, the VIN is only 7 digits and ebay doesn't seem to recognize or have access to any data about cars from the 70s. Title is clear.

It's time to move on for me.  The car has been stored under an all weather cover, but the amount it is driven can no longer justify the driveway space.  Ask me any questions you can think of.  My baby needs a loving home.

Buyer is responsible for shipping.  Need a cashier or personal check, after a $500 deposit (per ebay motors standard protocol).  Will ship the title after the funds clear.

Ask me any questions you can possibly think of and I will post them here.

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Popular Mechanics Breakthrough Awards honors GM Super Cruise, BMW i3

Wed, 16 Oct 2013

Our friends at Popular Mechanics have announced the winners of their 2013 Breakthrough Awards, which honor innovations and new technologies in a variety of fields, ranging from medicine to electronics to space travel. Among the winners were a pair of automakers.
The BMW i3 was named one of PM's product breakthroughs, and while the diminutive city car has a range comparable to other electrics, Popular Mechanics was impressed the i3's use of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic, which allows the i3 to tip the scales at just 2,800 pounds. But the i3's space-age materials wouldn't have been such a smash if it were priced beyond what the general public could afford. BMW's ability to offer a vehicle with such an advanced construction for around $42,000 (nearly half the price of the Cadillac ELR and only about $7,000 more than a Chevrolet Volt or Ford Focus Electric) is wildly impressive and speaks volumes about the future of ultra-light composites in the auto industry.
The other big winner comes from General Motors, which was named an Innovator this year for its semi-autonomous Super Cruise technology that's currently being tested on a Cadillac SRX. The technology, which we've reported on before, combines adaptive cruise control and lane centering into a super system that will allow hands-free driving under certain conditions.

2015 BMW M4 gets initiated into the club

Fri, 22 Aug 2014

It's easy for enthusiasts and traditionalists to give BMW a hard time these days, what with its plans to add more front-wheel drive models and seeming move away from more emotionally connected cars. However, the push for perfection that underscored its old Ultimate Driving Machine motto is still in there, especially in its M models. In fact, the first M4 recently made it to US shores, and the company thought the only appropriate way to celebrate was to introduce its new coupe to some of its high-performance forefathers.
The M4's initiation into the M car brotherhood involved bringing together no fewer than 52 classic and newer models - including four racecars and many privately owned vehicles - to an empty parking lot and letting the coupe drift and slalom around them to say hello. According to BMW, there was a combined 11,566 horsepower on hand. It takes a pretty trusting owner to stand back and watch as a brand-new vehicle slides its tail out with the rear wheels smoking within feet of their pride and joy. Stay tuned until the end where the owners and their cars get a shout out in the credits. Scroll down to read BMW's press release about it.
