Hold my keyboard and watch this! 🙃
36???
Don't think so.
They called it an OHC engine as well.
Research needed.
When did BMW 1st make telescopic front ends?
Suss.
745 ccs in 1936?
Horrible website. Every picture has a pop up appear over it 0.31415 seconds later.

I didn't realize there was more than one picture. I just liked the way it sat on the reflective concrete, with the professional studio lighting. 🤣 I have an ad blocker on firefox, and it evidently does a good job of blocking pop-ups too. 😎

I don't have any knowledge of old BMWs (I struggle to keep up with knowledge on new BMWs, lol).
Here is a web page discussing the suspension upgrade from leaf spring to telescopic on the R12:
https://www.yesterdays.nl/product/bmw-1936-r12-745cc-2cyl-sv-3209/
And a Wiki page covering the Side valve engine specs of the R12. Dealer may have confused engine specs with an R17:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_R12_and_R17
Whether any of this info is factually correct, I have no idea. I just thought it was a pretty picture, and a big price tag. 😉

Wow ok brushed up on ancient beemers a bit.
Thought the military sidecar was a latter development?
The R7 was a beauty and a shame it never went into production.
It was the 1st? Telle fork in 33.
The r17 was ohv .
Pricey yes but if it is a true complete 1936 model it would be a rare survivor.
