I’ve wanted a NK sedan for awhile. Consider the itch scratched. I’m not one to name my cars but like Victor Lazlo in Casablanca this NK needed his “letters of transit” to get out of Canada.
Last week I flew to Vancouver ferried to Victoria and brought Victor home via ferry to Port Angeles, WA then drove the 240 miles to Portland.
The import process for cars this old is pretty easy. Just need to do some homework and have the right forms (letters of transit)
ready.
He’s a 1967 2000. Mechanically the car is great, 99% stock, match numbers. Was originally Tampico. Has a mediocre repaint in metallic gold. Practically rust free.
My plans are to do some paint correction, detail trunk and engine compartment and some interior work. Dash top needs reviving and speaker holes in door cards need fixing.
Mostly I plan to drive it and enjoy it.
It’s the only 4 door BMW I have so it’s easy to take friends or the dog.
