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.
The inspiration for my car has been the 2002's that competed in the 1969 Monte Carlo Rally. Specifically the car of Dutch driver Rob Slotemaker. It can be seen at the very end of this video, number 115. Above are some images of another of Slotemakers 2002's. Apparently this one was modified by Alpina with a 300 degree cam shaft, high compression pistons and the Borrani steel wheels. Simply gorgeous. Below you will find a short video featuring some of the 2002's that took part in the '69 Monte Carlo Rally, just watch Timo Makinen's Scandinavian flick.
