[SHORT FILM] 1976 BMW 2002 

beautiful car! crazy people had negative things to say. its not riced out who cares what motor it has, this man put blood,sweat and tears into this car and it shows!

Carlos you do you! 5 words of a car enthusiast: I - OWN - IT - YOU - DONT!

This is exactly why we're car guys.. Most of us don't build our cars to please others. We build them as an extension of who we are. Keep going against the grain!

carlosis a chill dude

gorgeous car I love d old 🏫

inspiring build.. M20 must be awesome in that body 😃

Dude 1000 thumbs up! I know it's not exactly period correct but the way you built it is beautiful! Well done!

This is clean as hell!! Love the camera angles also.

Sorry guys, that back ground music is terrible, so repetitive and just loud enough that you can't escape it.... yikes.

love the black trim

bmw= built my way

There was one in my shop just yesterday but it was blue instead, such a beautiful and timeless car.

The best build is the one you wanted to do and are happy with.

Beautiful car I love 76 2002's. I like all the work u put into it. Except I noticed the yellow fog lights u added are uneven. One is higher than the other. Sorry just my OCD kicking in. Beautiful vehicle tho

car is so clean! love the color, flares, and yellow fog lights IP front. really sets the car off! good job on the engine swap. your reasoning for doing it is on point.

He said m20 v6 lol oops

What cant make out what the hell you are saying......music!!!!

different tyres in back ...LOL...anyway,nice car,my father have like this one..

Awesome job just turn the music down a bit

Great video and story. 👍

The 1976 BMW with a engine swap, other than OEM M10, how did he pass CA smog requirements?

Very nice looking car Carlos. Quick question, what kind of headlights are those?

great job amigo! you can take pride in job well done m20 conversions are much better then s14 conversions "in my opinion"

v6? i think he ment to say I6

music got alittle loud towards the end. Was hard to hear him.

I got a red 70s BMW 2000 touring waiting for me in an old garage..

Great story, bad-ass Bimmer. Wish I had it in me to do the same.

I totally get what you did, I would flare the arches & that sounds like a great engine option. I think it would have been about 115BHP stock, what sort of power are you running now?

where is your shop located?

M20 is a straight six not a v6

YO IM TRIPPING OUT I JUST SEEN THIS CAR OVER THE WEEKEND IN THE PARKING LOT ON MAIN STREET IN ALHAMBRA I LITERALLY GOT OFF MY E30 AND TOOK A MILLION PICTURES OF THIS CAR BY ITSELF AND SOME WITH MY CAR NEXT TO IT ! I HAVE A RED E30 WITH THE SAME EXACT SIZE AND STYLE WHEELS

nice

Hi, any info on your headlights? Happy with them??

Nice project. The only thing I don't understand is the engine swap thing - done for reliability. Seriously, a rebuilt and modded M10 will last virtually forever. It's easy to maintain, to work on and one can squeeze 200-300 hp from it (If he keeps it NA). I mean...there're a reason why it is considered the best engine ever made by BMW.

Great vid... Just tone down the music Very distracting

good for you dude.

hi Great Car Carlos 👍...

Beautiful build!

Nice video :)

Complimenti Carlos.Bella Macchina.Semplice Comoda e non Ti Fa Mai caprici.Spacca Tutto.Mi va giu.

opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. aslong as you like it that's all that matters..

Beautiful car.

I need one

this is litterly my dream car a 1976 bmw 2002

I absolutely love your car, love the fact you built the engine for longevity rather than just power, she looks amazing. I have a BMW 1 series M Sport convertible and she will be going to the south of France on Thursday, many thanks for the video and great to see the car that BMW deliberately made the ! series have the same foot print to keep history alive

This looks so clean. Love it...

Very nice film !!

Love the passion, Carlos. Don't give a second thought to any nasty comments. Keep doing what you're doing.

Are you in Pasadena? Looks like my neighborhood.

Someone tell this Boi to not leave his hand on the shifter. It's a bad habit that can eventually lead to unnecessary wear and tear on the selector fork.

How can you build a car and not even know what the engine is... V6?

is durable and reliable underrated these days?

Reason to own a mustang the purr when you start it will make you climacteric

Lollllllll v6 m20. Wow

amazing car... garbage music

He got slammed in the rear.

🔥🔥🔥🔥

🔥🔥🔥🔥

I could daily this.... but I have snowy winters

tell him to get a proper watch

But the real question is will it run tens tho😏

how can he be a car enthusiast if he thinks that the M20b25 is a v6? I mean cmon... nearly no bmw engine is a v6. it's an inline 6. that's why they're so popular when it comes to six cylinders...

Great story brother. I had a ‘74 02 and a ‘66 1800 in the 70’s ….sold them in the late 80’s…like a fool! Been on my bucket list since. Finally bought a ‘76 two months ago!! Ready to get reacquainted with my new purchase. Lot of work to do!
