Ever wanted to skip a few steps and just go right into the fray of things and bang up vintage metal?
It's a raced-and race-ready 1971 BMW 2002 for $30,000. Whoa. KBB doesn't have an entry.
I will expect a review from some Jalopnik editor who's bound to be heading to NASCAR to stalk Rutlege.

Let's have a look, then?
Details? Meh. How about 25 minutes of in-car footage*?
