=0D I had a 72 2002 tii that I brought out with me from California and I wound up selling it to a Professor of Economics from Princeton U. It was in great shape with no rust. One ding on the roof by the gutter when I backed under the carport with my 82 Cinelli SC still mounted on the roof of the Bimmer. Ouch!
