G'day,
This is my Chamonix White 1972 BMW 2002tii...which at the moment is missing the K-fish setup...but it is still a tii all the same. The K-fish will get put back on in the future. It has recently had a large restoration/modification and is even more of a blast to drive!
It was Australian delivered new and has the euro bumpers as stock (so i wont call it a mod)

Great looking car. My apologies for the late reply. I am looking at your 02 as my benchmark. My latest and second 02 in WA is also a white one. You have done a fantsatic job. I hope to complete mine to the standard or yours. You can check it out under my other member name as Alpinatii.

Beautiful car Tom! I'm currently working on a '75 2002 and can only hope to get it in condition similar to yours. Are there suppliers that still have those Italian front turn signals available? Shoot me an email at mitad@aol.com. I'll hopefully post some photos soon. Thanks! - Tim
