Some more inspiration
Some of my favourite 2002's are the very early narrow-bodied rally cars of 68 and 69. Here are some more great photos from period plus some film footage of the 1969 Monte Carlo Rally courtesy of British Pathe.
Timo Makinen and Paul Easter retired from the '69 monte carlo rally due to brake failure
Rainer Strunz and Walter Bachmann in their 2002 finished 19th
Patrick Lier and Michel Buzzi in their 2002 ti finished 13th
Rob Slotemaker and Ferry van der Geest in an Alpina 2002 ti finished 7th
I believe that this is the 2002ti of Louis Talamona.

105,984: caliper rebuild
After one of my calipers stuck resulting in lots of smoke I decided it was time for a rebuild. Two rebuild kits were ordered from Jaymic plus some gold Hammerite smooth. I split the calipers, cleaned them and painted them with a single coat of gold. I replaced all the rubber seals, polished the pistons and cylinders and re-assembled. They work great now and I am much more confident in their performance. Can't wait to test them out on the track.
