Vehicle Description
Offered here is a one-of-a-kind 1972 BMW 2002ti Race Car. It was
professionally built and has been the promotional car for a
top-class insurance company, with some famous driver's signatures
displayed on the bonnet. See below.
Suspension: Koni double adjustable coilover shocks with 400# rate
springs front and rear.
Transmission: 5 speed Getrag 245 from an E21, 228mm lightweight
aluminum flywheel.
Engine: M10 (121) forged pistons at 11.5:1 compression, High
Compression E12 head with a 314 cam.
The car was originally purchased in Chicago, Illinois in 1997 and
was completely rust free. �At that point, it was taken to a full
Race Car transformation: EC VSCDA "Era Correct Production Class"
registered Number 362. The drivetrain was all rebuilt (new motor,
transmission, differential and half shafts), and has only 4 hours
on current components. �The M10 motor has E12 heads ported and
polished, including headers, which is still in confinement of the
legal requirements for Vintage Classic car racing. The entire build
of this car has been documented with schematic drawings, diagrams,
build sheets, specific set up for particular races / tracks,
jetting for the carb, and misc. documentation. All included with
the sale.
This iconic BMW is current to be raced in it's next event. The log
book is VSCDA current and dated from 2014-2007. �The car has raced
at several Midwest tracks: Mid Ohio, ELVF Road America, Grattan,
Gingerman, Sebring (12 hours), Watkins Glen, Kohler International,
Road Atlanta, Savannah, and Roebling Road. �The car has also raced
in the SVRA 2012 Enduro and the Empire Hill Climb. This race car is
well known throughout the country. Race car drivers TC Kline,
Christian Maloof, Joey Hand, Bill Auberlen, Tom Milner, Randy
Pobst, and Duck Waddle are a few that have signed the car. �Their
signatures are preserved on the hood of the car. See photos.
This particular car was sponsored by Hagerty Insurance as a test
pilot marketing venture for insuring race cars and car haulers to
and from the track, which ended being a success.�This car has been
on display a few times at the Hagerty Corporate Office, in Traverse
City, Michigan, most recently in April 2017.
We have not seen a better documented and recorded car come through
our facility. The owner of this race car is also available after
the purchase to go over specifics of the car so that the new owner
has the opportunity to know everything about their competitive race
car and set them up for success. Call or e-mail for more
information. Thank you for looking.
