Rare 502 Cabriolet from the coachbuilder Autenrieth

One of presumably just 5 vehicles

The BMW "Barockengel" was the first car that BMW produced in series at the Munich plant. All models before were built in Eisenach. With its newly designed V8 engine, the BMW 502 quickly established itself as a representative vehicle with sporty driving values.

Approximately 23,000 vehicles of the type 501/502 were sold until 1963, of which only 280 were convertibles and coupes, which were often built by external coachbuilders.

Autenrieth produced presumably only 5 examples of this 2-door cabriolet!

It differs from the factory or Baur cabriolet by the lower roof line and the omission of the rear doors and windows. This makes it look much more elegant and sleek than the normal "Barockengel" cabriolet. The headlights also moved further out into the co-wings, making the car look wider. The panoramic windscreen was probably the first of its kind in a German production car.

The 502 Cabriolet was supplied new in Baden Baden in 1955.

Later it was owned for several decades by a well-known BMW enthusiast from Düsseldorf.
We also have some photos from this period.

In the 1980s, the convertible came into a Bavarian collection and was to be comprehensively restored. However, this project was interrupted for unknown reasons.
The primed body and the parts were stored in a garage near Lake Chiemsee.

About 10 years ago, the rare BMW was finally fully restored with the inclusion of numerous original parts such as the beautifully preserved VDO instruments.

Since then, the convertible has been used in concours events as well as classic car rallies.
