Private Museum Visit: Racing BMW 700cc Coupe!!

IMG-1101.jpg
While walking through the car museum, I kept on discovering little gems and unusual cars. Yesterday I wrote about a 1937 Chevvy Stockcar. Today I am posting some pictures of this rare 700cc racing BMW Coupe!! This little car is tiny!! Compare it with the height of the motorcycle standing next to it, and the person in the background.

The car looks all business - but it is only powered by a 700cc BMW motorcycle engine, with only 2 cylinders!!

The photos of the engine above, I took through the small hole at the back, as you can not see much of the engine from above!!

I even stuck my head in under the car, where I could see that the car is actually chain driven!!

These cars were produced between 1959 and 1965, approximately 188000 cars were produced during this time. You can read more about this car by clicking on the link; BMW 700cc Coupe

I hope you enjoyed the post as much as I enjoyed writing it.

The photos, were taken by me, with my iPhone, at the Checkered Club in Benoni, South Africa.
